Perks of Getting a Customized Selfie Booth, AquaFlex®, and More this Summer

Summer is around the corner, and with that comes more pool parties and company events. What better way to elevate your business than with customized products from Ultraflex? We offer a wide variety of digitally printable textiles, flexible materials, and specialty media that can benefit your home or business. From elevating front-facing media in customized selfie booths to adding waterproof graphics to pool floors, Ultraflex has a solution for you.

Enhance your underwater area with an exciting and quality-made product like AquaFlex®. Made from recyclable pool liners, AquaFlex® is a customizable waterproof graphic that is easy to position with a pool brush or by hand on the bottom of a pool floor. Our production of specialty media doesn’t stop there. Another effective way our media is utilized is through customized selfie booths and step-and-repeats. Our flexible and specialty materials provide the perfect backdrop to showcase a company or brand’s message and turn your event into a hit. If you’re interested in gaining traffic and attention through underwater signage, media for your photobooths, or additional Ultraflex materials, don’t hesitate to reach out and request a sample.

Improve and Customize Your Selfie Booth

Customized selfie booths are quite the craze right now! Thousands of selfie booths are rented out by independent operators and large entertainment companies on a daily basis. To make your booth stand out at events, consider adding your brand logo and artwork to the outside of the booth. By doing so, you can make your booth individualized and showcase your product.

Custom vinyl backdrops, canvas wrap frames, and wallcoverings are a great solution to make a booth really pop at events. Custom images can be produced on our high-quality, professional-grade material and will bring life and color to any venue.

At Ultraflex, our team has years of experience servicing businesses that require elevating their event wallcoverings, backdrops, and more. We understand the importance of high-quality media needing to stand out against other elements in the venue, such as the lighting and space.

The Advantages of Using AquaFlex®

Want to add a customizable, welcoming graphic to your pool or aqua-pond this summer? Then you are in luck! AquaFlex® provides unique branding and advertising opportunities for aquascape ponds, swimming pools, water parks, and more. This printable substrate designed for water is comprised of high-quality recycled industrial pool liner, making it a sustainable and durable solution

Places that Can Benefit from AquaFlex®

AquaFlex® is easy to position with a pool brush or by hand on the bottom of a pool floor and does not require you to drain your pool or water source. It is made with water-protected inks and there is no need for tape or frustrating adhesives. The most outstanding part about AquaFlex® is—by far—its aesthetic benefits, making it the summer season’s most popular seller.

The following areas may appreciate a splash of color this summer from Ultraflex:

  • Water parks
  • High school/University team swimming pools
  • Recreational community pools (YMCA, etc.)
  • Mall fountains

Ultraflex’s Commitment to Sustainable Printing Solutions

A movement toward sustainable printing has increased, creating additional growth in the print service provider (PSP) market for sustainable printing solutions. As the printing industry shifts toward sustainable practices, companies will need to offer more sustainable alternatives. Many plant-based or recyclable materials have grown immensely popular due to their environmental benefits.

Ultraflex offers a wide range of digitally printable materials, including PVC-free, phthalate-free, and recyclable media. As companies around the world expand their sustainability efforts, with corporate policies and regulations pushing our industry towards more sustainable solutions, we encourage our customers to explore our range of sustainable materials. Doing so will minimize your business’s carbon footprint and put you at the forefront of the sustainability movement.

By using PVC-free, phthalate free and recyclable media, you can be sure that your printed materials will always look their best. Their sustainability benefits as eco-friendly materials will make your product stand out in a whole new way.

Utilize PVC-free, Phthalate-free, and Recyclable Media

Offering eco-friendly printing materials to clients will expand your likeability and sales. A Forbes article revealed that 87% of consumers would buy a product from a company with similar values, and 92% of consumers are more likely to trust a company with eco-friendly options that support sustainability efforts. The demand for eco-friendly products is present, making it more important than ever to utilize our connections and products to deliver sustainable options to your clients. Increase your sales, customer loyalty, and overall image by turning to PVC-free, phthalate-free, and recyclable media.

Elevate Your Tradeshow Booth Graphics with Ultraflex
Elevate Your Tradeshow Booth Graphics with Ultraflex 1000 1138 Ultraflex Marketing Team

Tradeshow season is right around the corner, and for many of us in the printing industry, our exhibitor’s booth is the first thing the customer sees and can make you stand out from the competition. After all, we’re in the graphics business; print and display in your booth should be the WOW factor! 

If your booth lacks creativity, color, or a variety of prints, graphics, or demos, you risk the customer forgetting your brand or passing right by. Fortunately, Ultraflex has a wide array of product selections that can help make your booth more memorable with our digital printable textiles and substrates. These materials will elevate your exhibit booth to any scenario or style you’re looking for, whether it’s professional, creative, or fun. It’s essential to have an outstanding tradeshow booth for the following reasons:

1) Start Standing Out

Whether it’s a small convention of 50 or a tradeshow or exhibition of hundreds, each vendor is there for the same reasons, including standing out and attracting potential customers. If you don’t plan properly or use suitable materials, you risk fading into the sea of vendors. A unique tradeshow booth can elevate you from the typical standard that most vendors present and can draw attraction. When you have a booth that’s different from the rest, attendees will want to learn more about your company; plus, an outstanding booth can help signify that you’re a leader in the industry.

2) Convey Professionalism

A tradeshow booth should reflect your brand and be clean, polished, and professional. It should also be an extension of your website and other marketing materials. Your booth is a prime opportunity to show off what you’re selling, so make sure it’s up to par with the high-quality products or services that you offer. First impressions matter; if your tradeshow booth doesn’t look on brand or well put together, it will leave a lasting negative impression of your company.

 3) Connect with Potential Customers and Increase Sales

With well-designed tradeshow booth graphics, potential customers are more likely to enter your booth, increasing your sales team’s odds of hitting their touch points. When a potential customer feels the booth has a well-organized design, they’re more likely to engage and interact with each product due to increased visibility. This increases the number of products the customer considers purchasing, the leads generated, and ultimately the potential of a closed deal.

4) Convey Your Brand Messaging

Your booth should be a unique one-stop shop for everything an attendee needs to know about your company and its brand messaging. Connect your message with your booth design and concept and consider creative ways to show off your products alongside your marketing materials, such as brochures and literature. By displaying your brand messaging alongside your products, the attendee is more likely to remember who you are and what you do.

Ultraflex Digital Printable Media Solutions

Customize the walls of your booth with Fabritac, a removable, adhesive fabric that may be repositioned countless times without leaving any residue. You can also incorporate a comfortable seating area with your company logo printed on a sofa using our DecorFlex Leather media. This soft leather fabric is easy to print and digitally upholster to furniture. With Ultraflex, you can find various tradeshow booth graphics solutions, including wallcoverings, backdrops, fabrics for SEG frames, gallery-wrap material, backlit material, and much more.


Our highly experienced sales team will assist you in determining which media is right for you. Take your business to the next level by connecting with us to find the right solution for your tradeshow needs. Connect with us today!
