Summit Edits uses three carefully selected, professional-grade materials to ensure every photograph is presented with clarity, depth, and impact: Hahnemühle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth, Fuji Crystal Archive DP II, and Acrylic Glass with Fuji Crystal Archive.

Hahnemühle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth is a premium fine art paper known for its ultra-clean matte surface and exceptional detail. It produces soft gradients, rich tones, and a refined, gallery-level finish. Each print includes a 0.79" (20 mm) white border, creating space around the image and enhancing its timeless, gallery-style presentation. This material is ideal for those who want a calm, intentional, and deeply expressive aesthetic.

Fuji Crystal Archive DP II is a professional photographic paper designed for vibrant color, sharp detail, and smooth tonal transitions. Using true photographic printing, it brings out strong contrast and clarity, giving each image a polished, high-quality look with natural depth and presence.

 

Fujiflex High Gloss is a premium photographic material that sets a new standard for surface quality and visual depth. Unlike traditional photographic paper, Fujiflex is built on a rigid polyester base, producing a mirror-like, super gloss finish with exceptional sharpness and color saturation. Blacks are deep and rich, whites are luminous and pure, and every tonal transition is rendered with striking clarity. The result is a print that feels immersive — images appear almost three-dimensional, with a presence and intensity that draws the eye. This material is ideal for bold, dramatic photographs where maximum impact and a refined, high-end finish are the priority.

Acrylic Glass with Fuji Crystal Archive takes that same photographic paper and elevates it to its most striking form. The image is mounted behind crystal-clear acrylic at a thickness of 0.08" (4 mm), creating a glossy surface that enhances brightness, contrast, and depth. Both the acrylic and image are mounted onto a high-quality backing material, Alu-Dibond, at 0.12" (3 mm) for added stability and durability. Colors appear more luminous, blacks become deeper, and the photograph takes on a bold, almost three-dimensional quality. The premium acrylic protects against UV damage, helping preserve the image’s color for up to 75 years. Integrated aluminum rails make it easy to hang wherever you choose. It is a sleek, modern presentation designed to stand out as a true centerpiece.

By offering Hahnemühle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth, Fuji Crystal Archive DP II, Fujiflex High Gloss, and Acrylic Glass with Fuji Crystal Archive, Summit Edits provides a range of materials that moves from soft fine art to vibrant photographic prints to high-impact, gallery-style displays.
