Double Sided Large Format Printing That Performs

Large format printing includes banners, signs, posters, window graphics, wall graphics, display panels, point-of-purchase materials, and event visuals. Materials, finishing, and mounting options vary by application. For double sided work, banners and signs can carry coordinated graphics on each face so messages remain visible to people approaching from different directions. The best format depends on placement, viewing distance, handling, and campaign goals.

Double sided large format printing is useful when a display will be viewed from both directions, such as at events, in retail environments, near entrances, or within shared public spaces. It allows one printed piece to communicate more efficiently than separate one-sided displays. Organizations often use it for branding, directional messaging, promotions, and campaign visuals that need broad visibility.

Yes. Each side can feature a different design, message, image, or call to action while still maintaining a unified visual identity. Many businesses use one side for a primary brand message and the reverse for a promotion, schedule, or directional information. Providing final artwork for both sides helps ensure the intended content, orientation, and color treatment are properly reviewed.

Dupli-Group offers laminating as part of its wide format banner and sign printing services. Lamination adds a protective surface layer and can enhance the finished appearance of qualifying graphics. It is especially helpful for pieces that will be handled often or displayed where extra surface protection is valuable. Discuss the intended use so the appropriate finishing approach can be considered.

Provide high-resolution, print-ready artwork whenever possible, with clear dimensions for the finished piece and separate files or pages for each side. Vector logos and graphics help preserve sharp edges at larger sizes, while linked images should be high enough resolution for the final viewing distance. Include any bleed, trim, finishing, and installation requirements during project planning.

Consistent colors begin with well-prepared artwork and a coordinated production approach. Dupli-Group’s integrated printing experience helps businesses carry the same brand image across wide-format and other printed materials. Using approved brand colors, logos, and source files for both sides reduces inconsistencies. A project review can also confirm that designs, orientation, and expected appearance align before production.

Dupli-Group is an early adopter of Forest Stewardship environmentally sustainable printing techniques and has used 100% soy ink since 2005. Sustainable considerations can be part of the conversation when planning a large-format project. Available choices may depend on the selected material, finishing needs, and intended application, so sharing your environmental priorities early helps guide the discussion.

Dupli-Group was founded as Dupli-Graphic in Chicago in 1945, giving the company approximately 80 years in business. It grew from a quality-driven postwar print shop into a full-service provider offering digital printing, direct mail, wide-format printing, and other solutions. That long-standing presence reflects deep connections to the Chicagoland graphic design and Illinois printing communities.
