What is LabKorner ?

LabKorner is a photographic laboratory, based in Poland, allowing professionals and private individuals to print their photographs in gallery quality: with or without finishes, from jpg or tiff files. The YellowKorner galleries have entrusted us with the printing and showcasing of their collections.

We propose two types of prints: Gallery Framed prints and Aluminium  Etalbond® laminated prints (with or without Plexi finish, with or without Shadowbox Framing).

With what type of machine does LabKorner work ?

For Gallery framed prints, we make our photographic prints via Fuji Frontier printers.This high-end digital equipment is particularly suitable for professional photographs, books, portraits and Black & White prints. The whites are purer and lighter, the highlights sharper, the colours are perennial and of great purity.

We realize the revelation of our laminated prints with a ZBE Chromira and their development with a Colenta processor with reverse osmosis circuit.Chromira produces high-end colour prints, state-of-the-art colour management to ensure the best possible quality prints.We put all our craftsmanship and the market's most advanced technologies to improve the final quality of your photographs.

About my LabKorner photograph

How can I be sure that my LabKorner print will benefit from the highest quality ?

LabKorner quality is born from the combination of the mastery of advanced technologies and artisanal craftsmanship. Before printing the photographs, each one of them is checked and manually optimized by our Expert LabKorner to guarantee the perfection in terms of resolution and colours.In addition, LabKorner uses a traditional argentic photographic print technique: a reference in the world of photography and collectors, it is the perfect combination between historical know-how and modern digital technologies.Then, LEDS come to exhibit genuine Fuji DPII Gloss film. Your print is then developed in a chemical process RA4. It is then fixed, washed and dried.

Your LabKorner prints are guaranteed 2 years.

Do I have to buy a frame for my LabKorner print?

  • The Gallery framed prints or Classic formats (50 x 40 cm or 70 x 50 cm) are delivered in the frame.
  • The prints in Selection, Large, Giant and Collector formats are glued on an aluminium plate that serves as a support: they are ready to be hung as they are and do not need to be framed. For big formats prints, you can choose a Shadow-gap frame.

A 2cm-thick chassis, placed on the back of the print, allows to separate the photograph from the wall to create a gallery aesthetic.The prints in Mini format come with an adhesive hook to put on the back and a Plexiglas stand to put it on a flat surface.
