With all of the different signage medias that are out there it can be difficult to choose the right application that will be visually effective at getting attention in stores from shoppers, while remaining economical. TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics Systems are available to accomplish just that. In fact, TexFrame offer many advantages over traditional printed signage applications. Below are 5 reasons that support why TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphic Systems are the mainstay within today’s retail signage environment.
Appearance - aranded image appearance is one of the most significant factors in leaving a lasting impression with shoppers. TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics Systems are popular in retail environments because they display printed fabric with a fashionable frameless look that audiences notice. A silicone beading is sewn around the graphic so the fabric can be stretched taught over the perimeter of the frame and tucked into a small channel, simulating the smooth appearance of a rigid substrate, but with edgeless dimension. The graphic also isn’t distracted by a glossy polycarbonate face sheet like traditional framing systems. Printed using a dye-sublimation process, ensure it has an unmatched vibrancy and colour density with high definition image clarity that premium brands demand.
Changeout - changing out fabric graphics from the TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphic System is a simple process that can be achieved with minimal effort or know how. The fabric has a sewn silicone welt around the perimeter of the graphic, that is easily inserted into a channel groove around the edge of the frame. There is no risk of damaging the fabric when installing in a frame. If you are going to be changing out graphics often, TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics should be in the mix for consideration.
Economical - fabric is lightweight and durable, much less cumbersome than traditional medias. This makes TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics more friendly for larger signage applications. There is an advantage over traditional rigid substrate prints and vinyl, because fabric is easier to handle when installing. Also, fabric can be folded, so shipping and storage is much more economical in larger sizes. Not only are shipping costs lower, the risk of damage is almost non-existent when handling.
Customisable - every retail environment is different, so space is always a challenge. TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics systems can be custom built to your exact size specifications. Single or double-sided, LED backlit, wall-mounted, ceiling suspended, or free-standing applications are all possible. The aluminium framing systems can also be powder-coated to match any custom colour finish, as opposed to the standard silver. The end result is a signage display that can adapt to any retail environment and display inspiring messaging.
Multipurpose - TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics (SEG) are already being used by multiple retail stores around the world and there is a good reason why. It is however not limited to retail and because of its dramatic appearance, the TexFrame Silicone Edge Fabric Graphics is popular in numerous venues where inspiring messaging and imagery is used to influence those in the area.
