Sublimis coated backlit textiles are suitable for light box displays
Two new backlit textiles for direct and transfer sublimation printing will soon be available from Soyang Europe’s French partner, SENFA’s Decoprint range.
The first of the new releases is the Sublimis, a coated woven polyester for direct and transfer sublimation printing, available in widths up to 5m. It is non-stick, lightweight and offers light diffusion suitable for light box displays. The range ‘successfully reduces the issue of ink migration giving backlit applications really punchy graphics and colours and the best possible white point,’ according to Andrew Simmons, Soyang Europe’s sales director.
Suitable for indoor backlit displays, Alterra is an eco-friendly backlit fabric woven with recycled fibres that performs in the same way as SENFA’s popular Decoprint Pearl, but uses fewer non-renewable resources. ‘Not only does it incorporate 65% recycled fibres into the manufacturing process, but its green credentials continue with it being PVC-free and suitable for more eco-friendly ink types such as UV and latex,’ confirmed Mr Simmons.
‘Alterra was the recent winner of the SGIA Product of the Year award,’ continued Mr Simmons. ‘The material provides superior print quality and light diffusion which makes it an attractive choice for specifiers in retail, for example, who are required to minimise environmental impact without losing any of the impact of POS light box displays.’
Both Sublimis and Alterra will be available from stock on next day delivery from Soyang Europe’s distribution centre.
