What Are Acrylic Prints and Why You Should Consider Them for Your Next Photo Display

A favourite photograph can change how a room feels. The sweep of a coastline, a family portrait or the skyline from a memorable trip can bring that moment into everyday view. An acrylic photo print gives your image a smooth, glossy finish, rich colour and a sense of depth.

What is an acrylic photo print?

An acrylic photo print displays your photograph on a rigid acrylic panel. The clear surface and polished edges create a contemporary, frameless appearance that suits portraits, landscapes, architecture and panoramic photographs.

At Print Panoramics, our personalised acrylic photo prints use a substantial 10mm high-gloss panel with diamond-polished edges. Each print is made to order in the UK from your own photograph.

How are Print Panoramics acrylic prints made?

Your photograph is 12-colour Giclée printed onto a premium acrylic panel. The result is rich, detailed colour that lasts 100 years+.

We check your uploaded image before production, then securely package your finished print for delivery. Free UK delivery is included.

Why choose acrylic for your photograph?

  • A glossy, luminous appearance: The smooth surface gives your image depth and shine, with a different character from textured canvas.
  • A clean finish: Diamond-polished edges complete the frameless panel, keeping attention on your photograph.
  • Protection for everyday display: Our acrylic glass is water-resistant and scratch-resistant, with UV protection.
  • Choice of rooms: The finished prints are suitable for moisture-prone bathrooms and kitchens, as well as living rooms, bedrooms and offices.

High-gloss acrylic can reflect windows and lamps, so consider how light falls across your chosen wall. Our acrylic print guide compares finishes and explains how to choose a size that suits your photograph and space.

How are acrylic prints mounted?

Print Panoramics acrylic prints come with a concealed subframe hanging system as standard. The support sits behind the panel, creating the appearance of your photograph floating away from the wall.

Corner bolts (standoffs) are also available in chrome, black or gold on request. Contact us before ordering to arrange your preferred finish and confirm the details for your chosen print.

Which shape should I choose?

Our rectangular and square acrylic photo prints suit individual portraits, family photographs and landscape compositions. Choose a portrait or landscape orientation to match your image.

For a wider view, our panoramic acrylic prints give coastal scenes, mountain ranges and city skylines room to stretch across the wall. Check the available sizes on the product page and review your crop before ordering.

How do I care for an acrylic print?

Gently clean the front with a soft cloth lightly dampened with water, following the instructions supplied with your print. Avoid ordinary window-cleaning sprays, abrasive cloths and heavy rubbing. Our acrylic print cleaning and maintenance guide explains the steps in more detail.
