Large Format
Fabric Printing.

Dependant of where in the world you encounter it, whether it’s described as tension fabrics, Silicone Edge Graphics (SEG), large format textile edged banners, lightbox graphics, soft graphics… even fabrics in a box.

Print on textiles with a silicone bead sewn to its edges which fits under tension into a frame, has taken the display world by storm. No longer do graphics have to be rigid, heavy, transportable on pallets and difficult to change by specialist fitters. It folds into a jiffy bag, is easily transportable and simple for anyone to fit — and because Colorful have invested in the worlds fastest, most accurate machinery to produce these graphics, employed specialist staff members in all areas and set the production facility up to be as lean as is possible — the result is simple…

Finest quality, fastest turnrounds at the lowest possible price.
