The ST-603 Polarlight is a coated backlit fabric that has been treated to make it print receptive and then coated again on one side with resin, which allows users to print UV on the coated side with high resolution. It’s made from 100% polyester, giving a super smooth surface, great wrinkle resistance and good light transmission.
Two of Soyang’s popular printable textiles – ST-216 Nightstar and ST-601 Starlight have recently been released in 5m widths, making these products available for the grand-format exhibition and retail markets.
Soyang Europe’s Managing Director, Mark Mashiter commented, ‘Starlight is our go-to backlit textile that works like a dream with UV and latex inks to create impressive lightbox displays. Now that it’s available up to 5m wide, we’re envisaging a positive uptake for grand-format applications and large, seamless backlit displays. Nightstar is a black back fabric ideal for backdrops. It has a slight stretch to the material, which works well with frame systems.’
Another addition to Soyang Europe’s product range is a finishing product manufactured in Canada – GreenStrip Keder, the specially-formulated, PVC-free keder for textile tension frame applications. ‘We’re really pleased to be able to offer the GreenStrip Keder as part of the Soyang Europe portfolio. There’s a very real demand for products to assist with the finishing of textiles, including those for lightboxes and frames and GreenStrip is an ideal solution. Its green credentials make it suited to retail textile applications where environmental responsibility is a hot topic,’ Mashiter said.
