Large Format Printing
Professional large format printing for posters, displays, exhibitions and oversized marketing materials across Auckland.
When standard print sizes cannot deliver the visual impact your message requires, large format printing provides the scale to dominate any space. At Falcon Signs, we deliver large format printing Auckland businesses rely on for exhibition graphics, promotional displays, and oversized prints that capture attention from across rooms, halls, and outdoor environments.
What is Large Format Printing?
Large format prints transform ordinary spaces into powerful marketing environments. An A0 poster visible from thirty metres away communicates presence and professionalism in ways smaller formats cannot achieve. Whether promoting products, wayfinding visitors, or branding events, oversized prints deliver impact proportional to their scale.
Falcon Signs produces:
- A0 and A1 posters (largest standard sizes)
- Custom oversized prints (beyond standard dimensions)
- Exhibition graphics and displays
- Point of sale displays
- Window graphics and shop displays
- Event and conference materials
- Architectural and construction graphics
- Educational and institutional displays
Our large format printing equipment handles diverse substrates from paper through to vinyl, canvas, and rigid materials, giving you options to match every application requirement.
From retail chains requiring point-of-sale graphics to exhibition organisers needing display materials, Auckland businesses throughout West Auckland, Henderson, Glen Eden, and New Lynn trust us for large format printing that performs.

Our Process
Our Large Format Printing Process
Application Assessment
We discuss where and how your large format prints will be used. Viewing distances, lighting conditions, indoor or outdoor placement, and duration of display all influence material and production recommendations.
File Review and Preparation
Large format printing requires appropriate file resolution and setup. We review artwork for suitability, advise on resolution requirements for your print size, and prepare files for optimal output quality.
Substrate Selection
Different applications require different materials. We recommend papers, vinyls, canvas, or rigid substrates based on intended use, handling requirements, and visual objectives.
Colour Profiling
Accurate colour reproduction at large scale requires careful colour management. We ensure brand colours and imagery reproduce correctly on your chosen substrate.
Test Prints and Proofing
For critical colour applications, test prints allow verification before full production. This protects your investment in large format materials where reprints are costly.
Production
Using calibrated large format printing equipment, we produce your prints with attention to colour accuracy, detail reproduction, and consistent quality across large print areas.
Finishing and Quality Control
Prints receive appropriate finishing including trimming, lamination where specified, and mounting if required. Every print is inspected before packaging or delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions - Large Format Printing
Our large format equipment handles prints up to 1.5 metres wide with virtually unlimited length for roll-fed materials. For oversized applications beyond standard dimensions, we can produce panels for seamless joining or recommend tiled approaches that achieve even larger overall displays.
Resolution requirements depend on viewing distance. For prints viewed up close (under 2 metres), 150-300 DPI at print size delivers optimal quality. For prints viewed from greater distances, 100-150 DPI produces excellent results as the eye cannot distinguish finer detail. We assess your files and advise on suitability.
We print on paper stocks from standard poster paper to premium photo papers, vinyl materials including adhesive and banner vinyl, canvas for art reproduction and premium displays, mesh and fabric for specific applications, and rigid substrates including foam board and aluminium composite. Material selection depends on application requirements.
Supply files in PDF, TIFF, or PSD format at appropriate resolution for print size. Include 3mm bleed if edge-to-edge printing is required. Colours should be in CMYK mode for accurate reproduction. If scaling up from smaller originals, ensure source images have sufficient resolution for the final size.
Yes, with appropriate materials. Vinyl substrates resist moisture and UV exposure. Lamination adds protection and extends lifespan. For extended outdoor use, we recommend UV-stable inks and protective lamination. We advise on material combinations suited to your specific outdoor application.
Finishing options include gloss, satin, and matte lamination for protection and appearance, mounting to foam board, gator board, or aluminium composite for rigidity, grommets and pole pockets for hanging, and custom trimming to specific shapes or dimensions.
Lifespan depends on materials and conditions. Indoor prints on quality substrates can last years without noticeable fading. Outdoor prints on vinyl with lamination typically maintain quality for 12-24 months depending on exposure conditions. We recommend materials appropriate to your expected display duration.
