Product Overview

Really make your customer’s message stand out with these backlit displays, giving your artwork unparalleled vibrancy.

Wall-mounted backlit tension fabric systems are similar to their free-standing counterpart, in that they consist of an aluminium extrusion frame kit. The frame is 75mm thick for the standard and 65mm thick for the premium, and is fitted to the wall.

A fabric graphic, printed dye-sublimation onto 310gsm Backlit Polyester for great image vibrancy and finished with a silicone edging (kedar), is then slotted into the aluminium channel and tensioned around the edge.

The result is a beautifully-finished and seamless branding solution that is perfect for store displays or exhibitions. Replacement graphics are folded and sent via courier in a jiffy bag and are easily replaceable by existing ground staff, negating the need for skilled installers.

Differences between premium and standard are based around the lumens, quality and number of LEDs used. Wall-mounted Lightboxes are edge-lit, which means the LED lights are located around the inside edge. Premium Lightboxes have lights along the long edges for better light quality. Premium Lightboxes can also be provided with a backlit board for larger displays but this is additional cost and does require some skilled installation. Lightboxes are supplies in sections and require some assembly with an allen key (provided).

The graphics are printed with a FabriVU 340 which gives you a rich, vibrant finish and are excellent for exhibition and indoor displays.

Each Lightbox graphic is finished with a nylon pull tab as standard. This aids easy removal of the graphic from the frame, which can be tricky without a pull tab. By default, this is affixed to an upper corner of the graphic to prevent children reaching it. Please let us know if you would prefer the pull tab to be located elsewhere or not supplied at all.

Power cable length is approximately 3m. If you require a different length, please enquire.

Please be aware that edge-lit Lightboxes work best with busy, vibrant designs. Plain and single-colour designs can highlight lighting anomalies.

Premium Lightboxes can be requested at bespoke sizes and larger than show here – please ask us for a quotation.

Considerations

Please bear in mind that due to potential movement, shrinkage, and expansion during printing, calendarisation, cutting, finishing and fitting, we highly recommend avoiding the use of framed borders and other design elements that follow or rely on distance to the perimeter of the graphic. Doing so would run the risk of a visually uneven edge as we cannot guarantee even borders when cut.

For back-lit graphics only: please be aware that edge-lit lightboxes work best with busy, vibrant designs. Plain and single-colour designs can highlight lighting anomalies.

Currently, the dye-sublimation process does not allow for the use of Pantone colours. Any Pantone colours must either be converted to (or replaced with) CMYK colours before supplying your print-ready file.

Notice

We do not provide a wall-mounting kit and the aluminium frame does not have any fixing points – this is because the fixing points can vary depending on the surface the frame is being fitted to. You will need to drill the frame in the desired location to create your own fixing points.
