Standees that put your artwork in the spotlight
Full-colour UV printing on clear or frosted acrylic, cut to your outline and fitted with a stable base. Ideal for character merchandise, photo giveaways, table signs and retail promotions.
One process, many kinds of standee
The construction changes with the job. We will recommend the sheet thickness, base style and print method that keep the piece stable and readable at the size you need.
Photo standees
Portrait or landscape photos with a clean cut outline and a simple slot-in or screw base.
Character standees
Die-cut shapes around the character, printed with white ink so colours stay opaque on clear acrylic.
Menu & table signs
Freestanding tent or L-shape holders for cafés, hotels and events, with wipe-clean surfaces.
Promotional standees
Campaign artwork, QR codes and product callouts printed for short-run retail promotions.
Printed into the surface, not stuck on top
UV ink is cured directly on the acrylic, so there is no paper label to lift, bubble or yellow at the edge. A white ink base keeps colours dense on clear material, while second-surface printing protects the graphic behind the sheet.
- CMYK plus white ink for opaque artwork on clear acrylic
- Sharp small text, fine lines and gradients
- Gloss or matte varnish for the right hand-feel
- Second-surface printing for scratch-resistant graphics
- Colour matching to your brand guide where possible

What we need from you
- Vector file (AI, PDF, EPS or SVG) with outlines converted
- Cut line on a separate layer or spot colour
- 300 dpi raster images at final print size
- Pantone or CMYK references for brand colours
- Finished dimensions, quantity and base preference
No vector file? Send a high-resolution image and we can redraw the cut path for you.
Can you print on both sides?
Yes. We can print a mirrored graphic on the reverse for second-surface protection, or print independently on both faces with registration. We will advise which option suits your artwork.
Will the standee stand up securely?
Base size and thickness are matched to the height and weight of the piece. Tall or narrow designs get a wider base or a thicker sheet so the standee stays stable on a counter.
What is the smallest detail you can cut?
Small details depend on sheet thickness and the shape of the outline. Send your file and we will flag any area that needs simplifying before cutting.
How are standees packed for export?
Each piece is covered with protective film, sleeved, and separated with foam or dividers. Bases are packed separately where that reduces volume and freight cost.
