Oversized Seamless 13 feet by 18 feet Dye-sublimated Fabric Back-lit Displays Enhance a Colour is one of the only companies in the world capable of producing dye-sublimated printed fabrics larger than 10 feet wide in size. In fact, we have the ability to print dye-sub fabric up to 16 feet in width from a roll of fabric. Unlike the process used to produce UV ink or solvent ink products, by using our dye-sublimated printed fabrics the ink becomes part of the fabric. In the other two processes, the ink sits on the surface of the fabric. Also, the dye-sub process offers you a greater color gamut. Our dyesub fabrics can be washed, ironed, and steam-cleaned if desired. The UV and solvent ink processed fabrics cannot without extreme fade away. Even though we have the equipment to produce printed fabrics with UV and solvent inks, we choose not to. We give our clients the best possible color quality on fabrics. The images on this page were created for Farmington Display. Both our client and the end-user were amazed at the dye-sub color on their backlit fabric displays.
