    Most Popular Presentation Media / Finish

    SATIN

    Our satin photo lustre paper has been a preferred choice in BC for over a decade. Its semi-gloss finish, complemented by a special coating that minimizes ink spread, ensures sharp detail and vibrant colors. Ideal for boards featuring photographic images or heavy black backgrounds with delicate text.

    HEAVY BOND

    Our 48lb Heavyweight Bond offers a matte velvety finish that reduces glare from bright lights, making it perfect for environments like open houses or trade shows with intense overhead lighting.

    INDOOR ARCHITECTURAL OR OTHER PRESENTATION BOARDS:

    For high end reproduction of photos or building renderings, our inkjet printers are your best bet. With an optimized dpi system and 8-colour ink system, the sharp details and vibrant quality will grab people’s attention the way your work should.

    Most Popular Board Material

    TR Trades offers a wide variety of mounting materials suitable for various applications and budgets. Whether you prefer environmentally friendly options or durable substrates, we have it all. For a full list with pictures, see our indoor mounting chart.

    foamboards

    3/16” Foamcore

    Lightweight and economical, Foamcore remains popular for short-term events in BC. However, in damp climates like BC’s, it may warp over time and is not recommended for sizes over 24”x36”. Foamcore comes in black or white. If longevity is important, opt for another one of the choices below.

    3/16” Ultraboard

    Preferred for more permanent applications, Ultraboard features a dense polystyrene core that resists warping due to temperature and humidity changes. Its lightweight and rigid composition makes it the top choice for clients who are printing bigger than 24”x36” and will be using their boards for more than one presentation. Ultraboard is available in black and white.

    enviromount

    #3 Enviromount

    An environmentally friendly choice, Enviromount is produced from recycled materials and biodegradable in landfills. It’s ideal for premium boards at events like open houses or public engagements. Enviromount comes in ¼” and ½” , with brown and white options (depending on availability). We always recommend clients produce their boards on Enviromount as they can go directly into your cardboard bin when done with.

    Protect and Enhance Your Presentation Boards WITH LAMINATION

    Lamination protects your projects, extends their lifespan, and enhances their appearance. It adds sturdiness and water resistance, making your materials more durable and professional. Discover our same-day and next-day lamination services, offering a variety of options including glossy, matte, and anti-graffiti finishes.

    McKenzie

    Senior Account Manager

    McKenzie joined the TR team with a solid foundation of experience in the print industry. His career began in production, where he developed his skills in maintenance, operations and finishing. Quickly recognized for his talent, initiative and charisma, McKenzie was promoted to Production Lead. At the helm of the production team, he proved a natural leader and infected the team with his positivity and work ethic.

    After building his knowledge leading the production team, McKenzie progressed into the Sales department, honing his sales skills under the leadership of Carla Duncan and TR’s customer focused approach. His natural penchant for customer service and dedication to quality assurance proved an ideal fit for the TR sales team where McKenzie now functions as Account Manager.

    Never one to rest on his laurels, McKenzie enhanced his knowledge with sales courses at BCIT and can regularly be seen applying his skills throughout the shop. Don’t be surprised to find him supporting the finishing department, assisting clients at the front desk, or onsite ensuring installations surpass customer expectations.

    “Bruce has always provided excellent customer service.”

    Bruce

    CAD & eProject Manager

    When you meet Bruce you automatically know he is a seasoned professional in the reprographics industry. Starting out as a driver for Hughes Owens Printing in 1978, he eventually transitioned to Trimen Blueprinting where he acted as a reprographics technician for 13 years. With the onset of the digital era in 2000, TR Trades hired Bruce as CAD Manager. Since then he has been an invaluable asset to the company and anyone who has questions regarding CAD plotting. When Bruce is not overseeing others in the CAD department, he spends countless hours troubleshooting client issues, unearthing customer print errors, and providing eProject software support. He is regularly looked to for printing advice by both coworkers and clients.

    Bruce is also well versed in troubleshooting onsite issues and participating in client presentations, having assisted Carla and TR sales staff in many client meetings. If you’re looking for a history lesson on the print industry or if you want to optimize your drawings for print, you’ll want to call on Bruce. Many may not know, but Bruce is a musician at heart! He originally studied engineering and math, eventually realizing it was not the career path he wished to pursue. Following this, Bruce went on to complete both a music program and a piano technician program through Douglas College. During his spare time, you’ll find him creating music or acting as a vocalist in several bands. When he is not playing the guitar and recording music, you can find Bruce tinkering around on one of his computers or watching hockey.
