What are Printable Flooring Products?

PRINTING United Expo 2022 Recap
PRINTING United Expo 2022 Recap 1979 2560 Ultraflex Marketing Team

After months of preparation, we were delighted (and relieved) to exhibit at PRINTING United Expo 2022. The Ultraflex exhibitor booth was one of 700+ exhibitors, and energetic, curious attendees flocked to our booth to see the newest and greatest products on display. Our products were creatively showcased in many applications using a Mad Men-era, retro NYC-inspired theme. Below are the highlights of what was featured in our exhibit.

VorTex™ Soft Signage Solutions is a leading industry fabric and textile line and a popular choice for many application-driven printers.

VorTex™ Bolero S225 is a woven polyester fabric with a bright white point that enhances this subway-style design.

The backside of our deck structure showcases VorTex™ Grand Display D223, a crease-free, tight-knit fabric with a billboard-on-brick design.

Within this “office,” a stunning cityscape view using VorTex™ Backlit Event T202 reveals the textile’s crisp and brilliant high-resolution capabilities when printing wide-format graphics.

The office décor also featured DecorFlex upholstered chairs, VorTex™ Triple White D251 curtain prints, and Wallscapes Plus wallcoverings.

This image shows a large print of a New York City cityscape view set-up within a simulated office.

PVC-free and phthalate-free products, such as the ReSource™ Backlit S180, made with recycled woven materials, were also displayed. PVC-free materials are in high demand as the sustainable industry grows and consumer interest increases. The EcoVantage line was among the top attractions as attendees sought the latest sustainable products.

The new product showcased was VorTex™ Transfer Paper, a revolutionary dye-sublimation transfer paper available in 65gsm, 85gsm, and 105gsm weights. On display was a comparison of different weights of paper to fabric, showing the difference in color density and vibrancy.

FabriTac® and UltraPoplin® PES S240 were used in this newsstand-inspired greeting station where attendees were welcomed.

FabriTac® and Signetics® Magnetic Receptive Media were creatively combined into a retro hot dog cart.

Floorscapes, a durable clear vinyl floor graphic media was utilized throughout the entire booth with a NYC street and sidewalk print graphic.

PRINTING United Expo was a huge success, and we thank everyone who visited our booth. We look forward to seeing you at the next PRINTING United Expo on Oct. 18-20. 2023.

Frontlit vs. Backlit Banner Materials

Which Banner Material To Choose for Your Company: Frontlit or Backlit Media?

Banner advertisements are an important advertising tool for businesses to help generate awareness about the company and drive potential customers to a website or store.

There is a wide range of banner media for businesses to choose from, and at Ultraflex, we offer high-quality banner material for your company’s needs. Let’s explore specifically frontlit and backlit banner materials and how they can improve your business’s advertising efforts.

Frontlit Banner Materials

Frontlit banners can provide a clear, vivid print and offer superior brightness due to being illuminated from the image side. Since these materials reflect light from the front, indoor and outdoor applications are optimized for brightness and readability. When used for large-format applications, front-lit banner materials can help make your image as eye-catching as possible.

Billboard Plus Eclipse® FL

We offer one of the most popular front-lit materials on the market: Billboard Plus Eclipse® FL. This 8.5 oz, black-backed substrate is specifically designed for high-speed, one-pass printing and works fantastically for billboard and building-wrap applications.

EcoVantage® Supreme

Our EcoVantage® Supreme is an excellent choice for a sustainable frontlit banner option made from 100% PVC-free, phthalate-free polyester. EcoVantage Supreme is waterproof and features high opacity to help reduce transparency and shadowing. Thanks to its weldability and stitched seam, EcoVantage® Supreme can be used for many different applications, including banners, billboards, and POS displays, making it a popular choice for businesses.

Backlit Banner Materials

Backlit banners are a popular choice for companies looking for a material that offers excellent color vibrancy and definition. The material is illuminated from the backside and boosts the visibility of print quality in indoor environments such as tradeshows or storefront displays. Backlit banners can also be used in outdoor environments, such as arena displays or bus-stop applications, but we recommend avoiding direct sunlight placement to deliver optimal readability. When used properly, back-lit banner materials are an excellent attention-grabbing option to display your business’ message in any environment.

SuperSmooth™ PET BL

SuperSmooth™ PET BL is a 13.5 oz, scrim-less, backlit banner material. With SuperSmooth™ PET BL’s ultra-smooth, flat surface, the printed image quality is undisturbed and provides stability against different types of back-lit lighting. SuperSmooth™ PET BL features a non-curl formula, perfect for installation in many framing systems, such as light boxes, display systems, and more.

VorTex™ Backlit Optimum D270

Another great backlit banner option is VorTex™ Backlit Optimum D270, a 100% polyester woven fabric featuring a satin-finish surface and light diffusion layer that ensures uniform illumination without pinholes. This material is designed to hold high ink saturation, produce vibrant color, and is compatible with Dye-Sub Transfer, Dye-Sub Direct, UV, and Latex inks.

Choose Ultraflex for All Your Banner Material Needs

At Ultraflex, our goal is to help your business maximize the effectiveness of your brand’s message or communication efforts. By offering a wide range of high-quality signage, including frontlit and backlit media, we are sure to provide a solution for your company’s unique needs.
