What Do Our Diasec Customers Say?

It's an interesting question: If they aren't confident in their product, why are you?

There is a reason non-Diasec vendors won’t guarantee their product beyond a few years.

Cheap sticky films are used by nearly every face-mount producer in North America to adhere prints to acrylic. The problem with those films is that they fail. It could be tomorrow, next week, or next year. Expansion/contraction of the acrylic due to temp and humidity changes result in a separation between the adhesive and the acrylic – forever destroying that artwork with huge bubbles, tunnels, peeling edges and worse.

When your buyer’s piece fails, it’s you who gets the call. You will likely be asked to replace the work resulting in expensive remakes, crates, and shipping. Or if you decline, your reputation and brand are all at risk. Will that buyer be confident to purchase with you again? If they have several of your pieces, will they lose piece of mind?

Diasec gel remains flexible and fully adhered after curing and simply will not separate from the acrylic. Facemounts have been around for over 50 years and genuine Diasec is the only technology proven to never fail. Period.

Informing your prospective buyers why you have chosen Diasec can give them peace of mind and improve your position against your competition.

Diasec is a museum approved method of print preservation and presentation.

A fine art print is sandwiched behind an acrylic glazing and another archival substrate. The adhesive used in a real Diasec is a silicon adhesive combined with a proprietary product that ensures a complete and permanent bond. Unlike sticky film based acrylic face mounts that look similar, Diasec is engineered to never separate, peel, or fail.

Diasec Acrylic Print Mounting provides the extra smooth and extra pop visual benefits you will see. This is the premier presentation system for bringing detail, color and tonal range to life in a way that traditional photo framing cannot. For this presentation style we print on Select Giclee Pigment Papers and Fuji Flex polyester photographic material for amazing color and longevity (black and white images also look fantastic on these materials).
Face Mounted on lens-grade optically clear 1/8″ or 1/4″ acrylic, the edges are sanded to a smooth satin finish or hand polished for a crystal clear look (Polishing not available with giclée papers). The face mount to acrylic plex comes backer-less, or with your choice of backer materials and hanging hardware: an optional metal french cleat style hanging system or stand-offs. Square corners are standard, rounded corners are available.

The contemporary look of this photo mounting presentation method is ideal for artwork and images that really pop. An acrylic face mount print will look great against most any wall type.
