Supports
These are some of the materials we usually work with. Not all products are available on our website in all supports, since we usually choose the most suitable one for each poster. Do not hesitate to contact us if you want your poster in another material or if you want more information.

Facility
Rigid or semi-rigid posters
We recommend adhering them with plastic adhesives such as glue, silicone or similar when the surface is irregular or porous. And with double-sided tapes on smooth or polished surfaces. In some cases they can be fixed with plugs and screws, although this can lead to damage to the sign if the drilling is not done with sufficient care.
Adhesives - Stickers
They are self-adhesive products, they have their own glue included. They are only likely to stick to smooth, polished and slightly porous surfaces. This is the case of glass, sheet metal, bodywork and other treated materials with good adhesion. They are not valid to be placed on walls, trellises, exposed blocks, rusty or salty surfaces.
