Printing quality:
The printing performance is very important.
Printing quality should be judged by two aspects:
- From a visual perspective: colour saturation & printing resolution
- From perspective of installation: printable, foldable & anti- scratch
High Resolution:
Usually resolution is related to the flatness of fabric, the nozzle, coating and ink. Premium knitted fabric, can be used for both frontlit & backlit. Compared with other dye-sub fabrics, they have a more smooth surface and better resolution.
Anti-crease:
Truly wrinkle free & can be folded for transportation:
Prime display fabric- Light stretch fabric
Heat shrinkage & flame resistant:
Kindly refer back to the spec (data) sheets for more information.

Special Requirements of various applications
1. Font-lit fabric:
(YST117 Prime display & YSR 129 Knitted backlit)
The main application of frontlit products are used together with aluminum profiles, which is used widely in exhibit & trade shows.
1. Elastic: For easy installation. Meet the requirement for special shapes!
3. Resilience: Shouldn’t be any dents after handling the product. If there are dents the resilience isn’t very good, and the fabric wont recover.
3. Opacity: if the opacity is not good, you will easily see the hardware behind the fabric
Inks:
- YST117 – Dye -sub transfer, Dye-sub direct, latex
- YST129 – Dye-sub transfer & Dye-sub direct
Application:
- YST117 – Display, pop-up, back-drops.

2. Backlit Fabrics:
Premium Knitted backlit fabric (YST129) Coated backlit fabric (YST601)
Backlit fabrics are mainly used with an aluminum light box. The light box needs to have a bright backlighting. This will give a good transmittance. Premium knitted backlit fabric stops light from shining through, has a uniform light transmittance & presents perfect graphic texture. Most backlit fabrics will be folded for transportation, which require an anti-crease.
Inks:
- YST129 – Dye sub trandfer & Dye-sub direct

Application:

3. Favourite Flag fabric: –YST110
Textured wrap knit fabric, Semi- matte. Excellent strikethrough effect after dye sub printing
Usually flags are printed on one side allowing the image to be seen from both side.
It will guarantee consistent printing on both sides.
Usually these products are used for hanging decorations, without any obstruction behind. If both sides have images, without a good opacity, the images will interact. Therefore won’t achieve expected performance.
Anti- curling: when used as a roll up / pop up (Blockout)
Inks:
- Dye – sub transfer,
- Dye sub direct
