B2 paper types

Due to its large size, B2 print jobs can only be printed on our poster printers. Fortunately, there are still several paper choices available for these printers! You can opt for 190 grams satin, or perhaps choose 180 grams matte paper. Both are highly suitable for various purposes. Interested in other paper types? Check out all our options here. Of course, B2 size can also be printed on any of our panel materials.

B2 panel materials

Despite its large size, it is sometimes desirable to have a sturdy construction. If you want a robust structure, you can choose from one of our panel materials. For instance, you can opt for Dibond or corrugated board if you want to use your order both indoors and outdoors. All our other options are extensively discussed on the panel materials page.
