Mounting Substrates

ProlabExpress® offers a variety of mounting substrates to satisfy the most demanding finishing requirements.

  • Triple-Weight Art Board – This heavy weight mounting board is an economical option for mounting smaller images. Due to the nature of fiber based board some warping will occur. To maintain our highest quality standards, art board mounting is suitable for sizes 24x30 and smaller. For prints larger than 24x30, hardboard is recommended.
  • 6mm Sintra® - 6mm (¼") is more rigid than 3mm and is often displayed as a stand-alone piece (wall mounting hardware is included).
  • Styrene - Styrene is a thin (.080), smooth plastic substrate ideal for mounting prints 16x20 and smaller.
  • 1/8" Hardboard - A premium yet economical mounting solution, hardboard has a smooth mounting surface and is tempered for extreme durability. We add a special under layer which insures the smoothest surface possible. This material provides an upscale mounting option at an affordable price.
  • 3/16" Gatorfoam® - 3/16" Gatorfoam® is a rigid and harder surface than foam core boards. The standard color is natural, but black and white are available with additional lead time.
  • 1/2" and 1" Gatorfoam® - Offered in black, ½" or 1" Gatorfoam® is perfect for adding dimension to your work. This product is used frequently as a substitute for traditional framing.
