A2 poster printing

A2 print on demand, statement size.

A2 (42.0 × 59.4 cm) is statement-piece territory. Big enough to anchor a wall on its own, small enough to ship without dimensional-weight penalties. Buyers who pay for A2 are committed — return rates run lower and average review scores run higher than at A4.

A2 — 42.0 × 59.4 cm · £4.55 per print · no setup fees, no minimums.

Product details & specifications

Paper

Museum-quality 270 gsm satin art paper with a soft sheen. Heavy enough to feel substantial when handled, archival enough to last decades without yellowing or fading. The same paper used on every size in our catalogue.

Inks & press

Pigment-printed on a 12-colour press for exceptional colour range and archival permanence. Pigment ink (not dye) means colours hold their depth for 60+ years under normal indoor display conditions.

Packaging

Sizes A4 and larger ship rolled in plain unmarked tubes. A5 and smaller ship flat in stiffened mailers. Every order goes out unbranded — no Zela Print logos, no packing slips, no invoices. The customer only sees your brand.

Dispatch & shipping

Most orders dispatched within 48 working hours. UK arrives 1–3 working days, EU 3–6, rest of world 5–10. Every parcel is tracked end-to-end — the tracking number goes back to you so you can update your customer in your own voice.

Order minimums

None. Order one print or a hundred — same care, same standard, same paper. No setup fees, no contracts, no quotas.

File requirements

JPG, PNG, TIFF, or PDF up to 100 MB. Aim for 300 DPI at your chosen size — for example, 3508 × 4961 pixels for A3 or 7200 × 10800 for 24×36 inch. The configurator checks your file at upload and warns if resolution is too low to print sharp.

Damage & reprint guarantee

Every order is covered by the Zela Print guarantee. If a print arrives damaged in transit, or faded, or with a colour defect, send a photo within 21 days and we reprint and re-ship free of charge — direct to your customer.

Where A2 works.

  • Living-room focal points

    A2 is the size people buy when they've picked the wall and want a print that owns it. Higher-intent buyer, less price-sensitive.

  • Premium gift-tier listings

    Stocking A2 lets you create a £40–£80 retail price tier without raising suspicion — it's a recognised gift-print size.

  • Studio and gallery sales

    If you sell in person (markets, pop-ups, gallery walls), A2 is the size that gets the photos for social media.

Paper

Printed on 270 gsm satin art paper. At A2, paper weight matters — anything below 250 gsm starts to feel cheap when handled. 270 gsm holds its shape in the tube and on the frame.

Framing & mounting

A2 frames are available at most decent framers but less common than A4/A3 on the high street. Custom framing or a recessed mount looks excellent at this size. Ships rolled in a plain unmarked tube.

Common A2 questions.

What's the highest resolution I should upload for A2?

Aim for 4960 × 7016 pixels (300 DPI). Lower will print fine but might soften fine detail at this scale.

Why does A2 lift my average order value so much?

It moves the buyer from impulse-purchase ranges (£10–£25) into the considered-purchase range (£40+). Buyers in that bracket are looking for something they'll keep — and they pay accordingly.
