Overview
Artwork Guidelines
PrismaFLOOR Tough is a clear extruded PVC product which is reverse printed on the underside, which allows the print to be seen through the clear top layer, providing ultimate protection of a 2mm think clear coating. This is a clever new product because it means the ink can never been worn away by frequent footfall or even vehicle traffic.
It can be permanently installed just like any other vinyl flooring product, and will last for many years. As such, it is designed to offer full coverage on the chosen floor area, from wall-to-wall. However, we do offer a diminishing strip system which allows the PrismaFLOOR Tough to be cut to shape and edged with a rubberised angle profile to remove any trip hazard. Using PrismaFLOOR Tough will transform your space. We can print any image you choose or design one for you based on your project brief. This product is the perfect for solution for museums, galleries, retail and visitor attractions when theming is of importance.

Bleed – Please supply artwork with 10mm bleed
Colour – Please supply your artwork in CMYK and make sure that any critical colours are set up as Pantone spot colours. Provide a CMYK equivalent for any other special colours.
File Type – We prefer print-ready PDFs but we also accept artwork files supplied as Adobe Photoshop PSD, Illustrator AI/EPS and Indesign INDD if they’re supplied with fonts and links.
Fonts – Please ‘path’ your fonts. A PDF compression won’t embed them, so we kindly ask that you create outlines (path) your fonts or send the font files with the artwork.
Links – If you are supplying artwork in a format other than a PDF, please include all linked images and font files.
Pixels Per Inch – DPI determines the resolution (detail) of the artwork. Images with a low DPI can look blurry or pixelated when they’re printed. We prefer to work with a minimum of 300dpi.
Trim – There’s no need to add trim marks because our software can detect the art-board without them. If your artwork has a cutter, label the cutter using a spot colour called ‘CutContour’.
