FAQ's

What is lenticular printing?

Lenticular printing is a technology that uses lenses to create images with depth, motion, or the ability to flip between two or more visuals depending on your viewing angle.

At TwenT3, we use this method to produce unique 3D photo gifts, business cards, posters, and more.

What products do you make?

We create a wide range of lenticular products, including:

  • 3D business cards
  • Photo gifts (frames, keyrings, magnets)
  • Greeting cards
  • Posters prints in all standard sizes, custom sizes are available upon request
  • Stickers
  • Postcards
  • Wedding invites
  • Custom-sized lenticular panels
Do you accept bulk or wholesale orders?

Yes. Whether you're a business, reseller, or event planner, we offer bulk pricing and can customise products with your branding in mind. Contact us for a quote.

Yes - our digital gift cards are available in multiple values and can be emailed directly to the recipient. Perfect for birthdays, holidays, or last-minute gifting. Interested? click here

How do I contact you?

You can reach us through our Contact Us page or by email at info@twent3.co.uk.

Can I see a preview before you print?

Currently we are in the process of developing a preview function so all customer can preview thei product before making their purchase.... Keep checking back, it wont be long now

Are your materials eco-friendly?

Absolutely. We use eco-certified 75 LPI eco lenticular lens when possible and try to minimise waste during production. We are always improving our sustainability practices.

How long will my order take?

Turnaround time depends on the product quantity and customisation:

  • Standard single items: 3 - 5 working days
  • Custom-sized or small bulk orders: 7–10 working days. We’ll always email you if anything is delayed.
Can I use my own images?

Yes! All of our products are customisable. You can upload your own photos, artwork, logos, or even text during the order process. If you need help preparing your file, just contact us or checkout our Do's & Don't page for more info

What types of lenticular effects do you offer?

We offer seven main effects:

  • 2-image flip
  • 3D depth
  • Zoom
  • Morphing
  • Animation
  • Layered 3D
  • Stereoscoptic 3d
Do you produce custom prints?

Yes, we can produce lenticular prints of any size but all custom size
prints will require a custom size dye cutter which is a one time purchase and
once bought is yours to use for all future cuts of the same size.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that
you add a 2-mm bleed to your artwork. Please be advised, once the
custom die cutter has been purchased, this item is non-refundable.

Do you sell your lenticular products in bulk for discounted prices?

Yes we do produce lenticular products in bulk
for discounted prices, just let us know how many units you require and we can
provide you with a discounted price if applicable.

If there are any questions
you would like answered but we forgot to add above please contact us and we
will be glad to answer any question you may have regarding our lenticular
products and services.

What resolution images should i use for best printing results.

We suggest using 300 dpi resolution images or above to prevent
pixelation in the final lentiuclar print

Are there any subjects that appear to be more effective when viewed in 3d.

We have identified that cars and motorbikes, people, animals, food, and
objects as subjects that seem to affect viewers positively when viewed in 3d.
Portraits in 3d are very popular and people are often surprised to see how much
3d depth lenticular prints produce.

Why are lenticular prints more expensive than conventional prints.

Lenticular printing is more technically demanding than conventional
printing and requires a higher degree of precision in every stage of
production. The lenticular lens is a precision optical piece of substrate
material that adds considerably to the cost of the final production. Laminating
the print to the lenticular lense also contributes an additional costly
step in production as there is a large volume of waste, usually costing much
more than conventional printing waste, that we have to account for after
production.

How is lenticular printing different from normal printing.

Just about every part of producing lenticular images is difficult and
requires a greater degree of precision than is involved in conventional
printing. The creative phase of producing the lenticular digital file usually
involves dealing with many images that may ultimately be combined to create the
final artwork. A greater deal of precision is required when laminating the
printed piece to the lenticular lense because both elements must be exactly
aligned in order to properly reproduce the lenticular effect.

Why do i get speckles on my lenticular print?

This is a question we cannot fully answerand unfortunately this happens
from time to time and is something we have absolutely no control over. We've
found that It seems to be just happen randomly when printing, don't fear though
as this has no effect on the overall quality of the prints and they are
definitely still suitable to use.

How is the digital file made to produce the lenticular effects.

Generally speaking at least two images are required to produce a
lenticular effect using special software. In the case of a 2 image flip strips
of information from each of the two images are combined or interlaced to make
up a single digital file.

Can you use any 2D photo to make a Morphing, Animation, 3D, Flip effect lenticular image.

NO not all images are suitable for Morphing, Animation, 3D, Flip effect
lenticular please to see suitable types of images.

What is a lenticular print.

A lenticular print generally incorporates special visual effects that
can be viewed using the lenticular lenses (without 3d glasses) These effects
can include the illusion of depth and movement within the lenticular image that
change or move when viewed from different angles.

What lenticular lenses do you use when making your images.

We use the following lens 30, 40, 50, 60 ,62 and 75 and 100 lpi
lense. All lenses are used for different applications

Is there a recommended viewing distance for your lenticular images.

Yes there are recommended viewing distances
for lenticular images.

In order to get the best viewing quality out
of our images we recommend these viewing distances:

30 lpi, Flip, Animation, Morph,
Zoom, some 3D, recommended viewing distance - 0.9 to 4.5 (m) or 3 to 15
(ft) 

40 lpi Ideal for 3D, Reasonable
for Flip and Animation (fast), recommended viewing distance - 0.9 to 4.5
(m) or 3 to 15 (ft) 

60 lpi Ideal for 3D,
recommended viewing distance - 0.3 to3 (m) or 1 to 10 (ft) or more

62 lpi Ideal for
3D, recommended viewing distance 0.3 – 1.5 (m) 1-5(ft) 

75 lpi Ideal for Flip,
Animation, Morph, Zoom, Reasonable for 3D recommended viewing distance 0.2
– 1 (m) 0.65-3.3(ft)  

What is a lenticular lense.

A lenticular lense is an array of cylinder lenses that act like
magnifying lenses, the lens are manufactured out of substrate material.

Is it possible to use my flat 2d photo to create 3d lenticular print.

Yes it is, you can use almost any 2d photo and we will give it
that 3d effect appearance. We use software to create the illusion of 3d
depth.
