What Is Large Format Printing?

Large format printing is a large scale form of printing that has many benefits for organisations of all sizes. The most common large format products include posters and banners. It also includes signage, displays, large-format graphics, and pavement signs.

Large format digital printing uses similar technology to your desktop inkjet printer but on a much larger scale. Our presses are fast and incredibly versatile, allowing us to print directly onto various different substrates including paper, plastic, vinyl and metal.

Large Format Printing Use Cases

Large format printing has hundreds of applications across every industry and sector. Although if you have something different in mind, please let us know! 

Retail & Point Of Sale

Seasonal campaign launching next week? A new product range that needs to shout from the shelf? Wide format printing and signage means you can run a full store refresh in one order, with consistent colour across every panel. Swap it out next season without a second thought.

Outdoor Advertising

Outdoor sites need printed materials that can take whatever the British weather throws at them. Large format banner printing on heavy-duty PVC or mesh banners are the standard choice for hoardings, scaffolding wraps, and roadside advertising. Mesh banners are worth considering for exposed, windy locations.

For shorter campaigns, correx (corrugated plastic) boards are lightweight and weatherproof.

Floor Graphics

In a busy indoor environment, floor graphics catch the eye at exactly the right moment. Graphics printed on anti-slip laminated floor vinyl are durable and fully compliant. Use floor graphics to direct customers through a store, highlight a promotion, or reinforce brand messaging at the point of sale. They’re equally effective at exhibitions, events, and in reception areas.

Events & Conferences

Conferences, awards nights, product launches, charity galas – every event needs signage, banners and posters that guide people, promotes sponsors, brands the space and looks great in photographs. Pull-up banners travel easily and set up in seconds and wide format printing also means you can produce multiple sizes from a single artwork file.

Large Format Printing FAQs

What is large format printing?

Large format printing is any print job produced on media too wide for a standard commercial printing press. Typically, anything over 18 inches across.

It covers everything from wide roller banners and exhibition backdrops to building wraps and signage that are all produced on specialist wide-bed digital printers.

What’s the difference between wide format and large format printing?

Generally, the two terms mean the same thing and are used interchangeably across the print industry. Both refer to printing on oversized media that standard presses can’t handle.  

Some print companies use “wide format” to describe the printer itself and “large format” to describe the finished product. The process and the equipment are identical. 

Do you offer same day large format printing?

We can offer fast turnarounds, with some products available for next day UK delivery depending on the finishing options and a daily cut off time. Each product page includes delivery options and expected fulfilment date. If your job is very urgent, it might be best to get in touch first, and we’ll do everything we can to help.

Can you print large format if I don’t have a designer?

Our in-house design service means you can brief us on what you need and we’ll create print-ready artwork for you, matched to your brand and sized correctly for the product you’re ordering.
