Full-colour UV direct printing straight onto raw MDF panels — no vinyl, no lamination. Choose 3mm, 9mm or 12mm board, single or double sided, cut to size or cut to any custom shape up to a full 2400 x 1200mm sheet on our CO₂ laser or CNC router.

Your artwork is UV direct-printed straight onto the raw board — full colour, edge to edge, no vinyl and no lamination. This is a real Platinum Signs job moving through our factory.
Our MDF printing service puts full-colour graphics straight onto raw MDF board with UV direct printing — no vinyl application, no film lamination. The UV-cured ink bonds directly into the board's smooth surface, so the finish is matte, tactile, and reads as part of the panel rather than a layer on top of it. Unprinted areas show the warm, natural tan of the board — a look designers deliberately build into retail, exhibition, and hospitality work.
Every panel is printed and cut in-house. Choose a standard rectangle or a custom cut shape— the laser leaves a smooth, sealed edge with a subtly darkened tone that suits the natural board beautifully. Panels run from 100mm x 100mm up to a full 2400mm x 1200mm sheet, in three stocked thicknesses: 3mm, 9mm, and 12mm.
We run two cutting technologies in-house, on every thickness we offer, and they give two different edges. Neither is a compromise — pick the one that suits the piece.
| CO₂ Laser | CNC Router | |
|---|---|---|
| Edge | Sealed, caramelised line — a deliberate look, not a defect | Clean, uncharred timber — pale and crisp |
| Detail | Very fine kerf — holds tight internal corners | Excellent on larger shapes and thicker board |
| Nesting | Parts nest closer — less waste on intricate cuts | Needs a little more clearance between parts |
| Pick it when | Lettering, fine detail, intricate contours | You want the board to read light and clean |
Both leave a sharp, finished edge. If you have a preference, say so with your artwork — otherwise we'll pick whichever suits the shape you've sent.
Every panel is MDF cut to size as part of your order — choose any rectangle from 100mm x 100mm up to a full 2400 x 1200mm sheet, or supply a vector outline and we'll cut the shape exactly on the CO₂ laser or CNC router. Cutting is included in the price above; a custom contour adds a per-metre charge based on the shape and board thickness. Need unprinted cut-to-size MDF blanks? Contact us and we'll quote the cutting on its own.
Printed MDF is the workhorse of interior display: retail POS and product displays, exhibition and event panels, menu and specials boards, gallery and photographic prints, reception features, and wayfinding in warm, natural-toned fitouts. It's the most economical timber substrate we print, with the smoothest surface — artwork with flat colour, photography, or fine text reproduces cleanly without grain interference.

For projects that need a sealed, sprayed, automotive-grade finish — clear over the print or full colour — we offer 2-pac coated MDF panels. It's a project-quoted service we reserve mostly for larger, typically architectural work: feature walls, joinery-integrated panels and premium fitouts. It isn't part of the online calculator — the right build-up depends on the details involved, so reach out and we'll discuss your project.
Custom thicknesses, 2-pac coated finishes, multi-panel layouts, unusual shapes or bulk orders — our team can help. Get a free quote or chat with us now.
