Medical Poster Printing Glasgow: NHS research day, clinical audit and conference posters

An A0 poster is £50, A1 is £40 and A2 is £30, with £5 off each poster when you order two or more, which suits a department sending several people to the same research day. Same-day bike courier anywhere in Glasgow, the hospital included, is £15. Poster orders start from £30 and delivery on standard orders over £50 is free. A poster needed today or tomorrow is priced on the phone, so ring 0141 345 5841 and we will confirm the timeline and the cost.

Ask when you order. Most posters are paid by card and claimed back on expenses, and if your department needs an invoice with a purchase order or cost centre reference on it, tell us before we print and we will let you know what we can do.

Yes. Our bike courier delivers to the QEUH, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, Gartnavel General and the Beatson, the Royal Hospital for Children, and the university medical schools, or anywhere else in Glasgow, for a flat £15. Give us the building, floor and a phone number, and the rider will meet you at reception or the department. Collection from our G3 studio is also fine.

PDF is best, exported at the final page size. Most research posters are made in PowerPoint though, and that works too: set the slide size to 84.1cm by 118.9cm for A0 portrait or 59.4cm by 84.1cm for A1, then export a PDF. If you send the PowerPoint itself, we convert it and send you a proof before anything prints.

Our wide-format printer runs 12 inks at 1440 dpi, so bar charts, survival curves, histology and imaging figures print sharp and the fine text in a table stays readable. Keep figures at 150dpi or better at print size, and export charts as vector where the software allows, because a screenshot of a chart will look soft at A0.

Matte is the safe choice for a poster hall lit by strip lights, because it does not throw reflections at the people reading it. Satin gives photographs, scans and imaging a bit more depth and a slightly richer black. Both are the same price. If in doubt, matte for text-heavy audit posters, satin for anything built around images.

A couple of working days is a comfortable deadline and needs nothing special from you. If the research day is tomorrow, or the poster has to be ready today, phone 0141 345 5841 with the file to hand. We will take the details, tell you whether we can hit the deadline and confirm the price before you pay. For a poster needed at a conference venue in town the same afternoon, see our SEC event printing page.

Yes. Our bike courier delivers to hotel reception, the SEC, the QEUH and other hospital sites, and university departments. Same-day bike courier anywhere in Glasgow is £15. Give us the hotel and your name and we leave the poster with reception, so it is waiting when you check in. Collection from our Washington Street studio is also fine.
