What is Glass Face Mounting?
Glass Face Mounting is the process of mounting a photographic print between a sheet of toughened glass and a Dibond backing sheet.
An airtight bond with no air bubbles is created by bonding prints to the glass using optically clear silicone adhesive.
Advantages of Glass Face Mounting
Glass Face Mounting is available offers a contemporary mounting solution for those looking to present a finished piece without a frame. Refraction of light through the Glass lends your artwork a vivid and deeply intense colouration. There is also the additional benefit of no light reflections between your artwork and the glazing of a traditional frame.
Each completed Glass Face mount is supplied with an Aluminium sub-frame for a frameless finish, making it easy to hang and providing additional rigidity and support against warping. The subframe also provides a visible space between the mounted work and the wall, giving your photographs or artwork a three-dimensional ‘floating’ presence.
Using our precision cutter, we can produce glass face mounts in any size up to a maximum of 72 x 48 inches (1 828 x 1219mm).
