Wall Murals

How Wall Murals Have Evolved Over Time

Last century, if you wanted a custom wall graphic for your company you had to hire an artist to hand paint it. This was time-consuming and expensive. Or you could search for stock wallpaper with a repeating pattern. Today’s technology can produce a custom image on commercial wallpaper or wall vinyl that transforms a room, hall, or wall overnight. A good quality digital image or images can be combined to create that custom look you want. The entire wall can be one image, no more repeating patterns.

Imagine enlarging pictures of your early products and/or other sites to be displayed for all customers to see. With the number of stock photo sites available you can easily find an image, or you can have a custom graphic created that will transform a wall or room into a unique location that people will remember and talk about. One of the current design trends is to create inspiration walls with words, phrases, or quotes that suit your business, customers, and employees.

Wall Murals FAQ

What is the minimum image resolution necessary to print a wall mural?

150 PPI (pixels per inch) image at 100% size is the resolution we would recommend to ensure that printed graphics will look sharp when viewed from a close distance. Some images and applications can get away with a lower resolution.

Can I have graphics installed outdoors onto uneven surfaces, such as corrugated metal, concrete, and brick wall?

Yes, you can. We work with a great variety of vinyl materials, and one of the criteria considered when selecting a material is the surface that the wall graphics will be installed, along with its expected life span and environmental conditions.

Can you print graphics on texturized wallpaper?

Yes, we can. Commercial grade wallcoverings are available in several different finishes and textures, and all of them are printable.

Will the wall be damaged if the graphics need to be removed or replaced?

No, it won’t, in most cases. Wallpaper adhesive is water-based, so it will come off easily if necessary. As for vinyl applications, there are specific materials designed with low tack adhesive, exactly to prevent situations like that from happening. Some people may choose to install vinyl with a permanent adhesive that will most likely remove some paint and possibly some of the drywall.

Can doors and cabinets be wrapped as part of a room customization?

Yes, it is possible to wrap doors and furniture if desirable. However, a site survey would be required to evaluate surfaces and make sure expectations can be met.
