We Print on
Almost Anything.
POW is a direct-to-surface printing company that travels worldwide with a simple belief: the world is full of surfaces waiting to be transformed. We just don't print on water.
From Frustration
to POW.
POW started the way most good ideas do — with a problem. Our founder, Marcus Reid, spent 20 years in the print and design industry, watching clients spend thousands on vinyl wall graphics that looked great for six months and then started peeling, bubbling, and fading.
There had to be a better way. And there was: direct-to-surface printing. Instead of sticking something onto a wall, you print directly onto it. No vinyl. No adhesive. No edges to catch. Just ink, bonded to the surface, built to last.
So in 2018, Marcus bought his first wall printer and started POW. The first project was a mural in a Shoreditch coffee shop. The owner still sends us photos of it — seven years later, it looks like it was printed yesterday.
Since then, we've printed on walls, glass, wood, metal, doors, floors, ceilings, and surfaces we didn't even know we could print on. We've worked with tech startups, retail chains, boutique hotels, restaurants, and homeowners who wanted something different. Every project, we push the boundaries a little further.
Today, POW is more than walls. We print on almost any flat surface. The only thing we won't print on is water. Everything else is fair game.
Our
Values
Bold by Default
We don't do subtle. We do striking. Every project should make people stop and look twice.
Built to Last
We use the best inks, the best equipment, and the best processes. If it's not durable, it's not done.
People First
We treat every client's space like it's our own. We listen, we advise, and we care about the result.
Always Curious
New surface? New technique? New challenge? Bring it on. We're always pushing what's possible.
Our
Approach
We Listen First
Every great print starts with understanding. We take the time to learn about your space, your brand, and what you want to achieve before we pick up a printhead.
We Sweat the Details
Colour calibration to the exact Pantone. Surface prep down to the micron. Artwork checked at 300% zoom. The details are where good becomes great.
We Design for the Surface
A wall print is different from a floor print is different from a glass print. We design and print with the surface in mind — not against it.
We Don't Leave Until It's Perfect
We do a final inspection on every project. If something isn't right, we fix it. No exceptions, no excuses.
