Full Colour Posters

Poster Printing in Singapore — Any Size, Any Finish

A striking poster stops people in their tracks — whether it's taped to a cafe window, mounted in a conference foyer or displayed on an exhibition easel. At Happy Print Shop we have been producing full colour posters for Singapore customers for over four decades, covering every standard format from A4 to A0 and any custom dimension in between. With our studio right beside Tanjong Pagar MRT, many clients simply walk in and collect their prints the same day.

Common Poster Sizes and Their Uses

While we can print any size, these are the formats our clients order most:

• A4 (210 × 297 mm) — table-top displays, notice boards, menu inserts and counter-top signage.
• A3 (297 × 420 mm) — our best-selling size. Used for in-store promotions, restaurant specials, campus announcements and small event posters.
• A2 (420 × 594 mm) — shop window displays, property listing boards, cinema-style event posters and retail feature walls.
• A1 (594 × 841 mm) — conference presentations, office lobby signage, university poster sessions and wayfinding boards.
• A0 (841 × 1189 mm) — trade show graphics, architectural presentations and large exhibition panels.

Going even bigger? Our large format printers take over for anything beyond A0.

Picking the Right Paper Stock

Paper choice affects how your poster looks and how long it lasts:

• Gloss art paper (128–200 gsm) — delivers punchy, saturated colours. The go-to for photographic imagery and retail point-of-sale.
• Matt art paper — minimises reflections under bright or angled lighting. Preferred for text-heavy layouts, academic presentations and gallery prints.
• Satin stock — sits between gloss and matt, offering rich colour without harsh reflections. A versatile choice for corporate and professional displays.
• Canvas — textured, gallery-grade material for photographic art, reproductions and high-end wall decor. Available stretched on timber frames or rolled.

Lamination, Mounting and Display Solutions

Posters in busy environments need protection. Lamination — available in matt or gloss — shields the print from moisture, fingerprints and general wear. For free-standing or wall-mounted displays, we mount posters onto 5 mm foam board, 3 mm PVC board or Gatorboard, giving them rigidity for easels, exhibition panels and point-of-sale stands. Canvas prints can be gallery-wrapped on timber stretcher bars, ready to hang straight out of the box.

Walk-In Same-Day Poster Printing

Our digital presses turn around posters rapidly — many walk-in orders are ready within the hour.

Just bring your file on a USB drive or send it ahead by email and we'll have it waiting for you.
