Big Acrylic

What Big Acrylic does

Big Acrylic is a privately held custom wall art printing company operating in the United States and Canada. The company uses digital flatbed printing technology to print directly onto acrylic glass, brushed metal, white metal, sublimation metal, canvas, and fabric substrates, with a proprietary process of direct-to-acrylic printing that produces a high-gloss, 3D-like finish distinct from competitors who typically mount printed paper behind acrylic. The core product is the Custom Art Acrylic Print, supplemented by metal, canvas, and fabric variants, plus specialty items including the Ultra Slim LED Snap Frame, Multi-Panel Artwork, NFT Frame, Skateboard Art, Surfboard Art, and the recently launched Plexi-Poster nail-free mounting solution. Custom sizing is supported up to 96 inches, and an image enhancement service is included with orders.

The business model combines direct-to-consumer e-commerce via bigacrylic.com with a B2B channel program. The primary customer segment is homeowners and individual consumers purchasing personalized wall art (family portraits, vacation photos, gifts); secondary segments include commercial spaces (offices, medical facilities), hospitality and retail (hotels, restaurants, fitness centers), interior designers and art consultants, and photographers and artists. Pricing is quote-based and varies by substrate, size, and mounting options; products are made-to-order with a 6-8 business day lead time, and a 25% sitewide promotion is currently active. The company accepts both USD and CAD, ships across North America, and operates seven-day phone consultation and free consultation services.

The company is structured as an independent, bootstrapped operation with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or investor backing. A reseller/partner program offers white labeling, dropshipping, and volume discounts to interior designers, photographers, and art consultants. The product catalog includes AI-generated art collections (Synthetic Splatter, Furry Fashionistas, Food Frenzy, Flower Heads) merchandised across multiple substrates, and an NFT Frame product bridges digital collectibles with physical display. Named enterprise customers include Hotel Edison (hospitality), University of Miami (education), and Stretch Zone (fitness/wellness), though these appear as case studies rather than disclosed anchor accounts.
