Frontlit fabrics can have a front coating to enhance light projection, ensuring graphics stand out even in brightly lit spaces. The tight structure of the fabric ensures high opacity, and it has a slight stretch to make installation easy.
Applications include tension fabric displays, table cloths, exhibition stands and much more. The soft and durable surface makes the most of high print resolutions to ensure maximum quality.
