*Diasec is an archival mounting and framing method.It is the process of mounting and sealing a print between two substrates – acrylic glass and Dibond® - to create a rigid, high-quality, exhibition standard artwork.The process was invented by Heinz Sovilla-Brulhart in 1969 and is still the preferred method of archival mounting across the globe.
The artist's hand rendered artwork is first printed onto a fine art or photographic paper of your choice. The print is then face-mounted, image side up, to transparent acrylic glass (Perspex) using advance mounting techniques and a series of chemicals. Adhesion of the print takes place chemically when two liquid components come into contact and thus leaves the print sealed, dust and air free. The back of the print is then mounted onto Dibond® - an aluminium and plastic composite sheet. Sandwiched between the acrylic glass and Dibond®, the print is left perfectly flat with a high-gloss finish.
