On the 17th of March 2016 I visited Studio 51 to find out about the place. Studio 51 specialise in:

  1. Printing
  2. Exhibition stands
  3. Display banners
  4. Business cards and and branding
  5. Web Design

When I arrived I was invited to look at all the printers and take photos for my blog. When i was there I saw that they had printers in lots of sizes and they were very busy printing and making products for customers.

After asking what kind of material and paper they can print on I found out that they specialised in printing on

  • Forex boards
  • Acrylics
  • Dibond metal
  • Canvas
  • Blueback poster paper
  • PVC banner
  • Mesh banner
  • Photographic paper
  • Self adhesive vinyl

I found out about this place from a family member who suggested I go to check out the prints a year ago, this is where I had my portfolio pictures printed on fine art paper. Personally, I believe the quality was exactly what I wanted and I was very happy with them. If I need to get prints in future I think I will definitely consider going here again.
