An unframed poster is a print supplied without a frame. A framed option includes the frame specified by the selected variant. Choose based on your room, your existing frames, and the total cost of the finished display.
When to consider an unframed print
An unframed print may fit a practice that already has compatible frames or wants to choose its own mounting arrangement. Match the print dimensions to the frame's supported artwork size. Check any mat opening before buying; a mat can cover part of the printed design.
When to consider a framed option
A framed variant can reduce the need to source a separate frame. On products such as Achilles Tendinitis and Diabetic Neuropathy, the current options include Unframed and Black Frame in three print sizes. Availability and pricing should be checked on the selected product.
Compare the same size
Compare a 24 × 18 inch unframed variant with the 24 × 18 inch framed variant, for example. If you plan to buy a separate frame, include that cost when comparing your choices. Review shipping at checkout rather than assuming it is included in the product price.
Check specifications before ordering
Confirm the print size, frame option, outer dimensions where provided, and any supplied hanging hardware. Do not assume that a medical education poster is laminated, washable, or compatible with clinic disinfectants unless the product specifications expressly say so. Consider your facility's display requirements when choosing a mounting location.
Choose the topic before the finish
A frame cannot make a design better suited to your audience. Review the artwork first, then choose size and finish. Browse general patient education posters, diabetic foot posters, or the full catalog. For wall measurements, use our poster size guide.
