Diasec® is a method of face-mounting the image side of a print to transparent acrylic glass, while the back of the print is mounted onto an aluminium plate (Dibond®). Sandwiched between the acrylic glass and Dibond®, the print is perfectly flat with a high-gloss finish. This has become the benchmark when displaying photographs in galleries and museums across Europe.
The print itself is a C-Type or chromogenic colour print, printed on a LightJet. These are actual full-colour, professional photographic prints made by exposing specialised, light-sensitive, photographic paper to light. The paper is then developed and washed using traditional photographic techniques to produce an actual colour photographic print and not an ink-on-paper/photo-quality (aka Giclée/InkJet) print.
Traditional framing isn't necessary, as a hanging mechanism is attached directly to the Dibond® backing, which floats the artwork 25 mm from the wall. If you prefer a more contemporary look, the Diasec® mounted artwork can be fitted into a frame (one of the other print options available).
