bigger, get noticed

Outdoor tension-fabric display: stand out large and illuminated

Big, bigger, tension fabric system. That is one way to describe the new tension-fabric technology, with which you can stand out hugely outdoors. And, cleverly, it comes with lighting but without a visible seam.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Outdoor

  • big

  • seamless up to 4.80 m high

  • full-surface LED lighting

  • austauschbar

PVC tension-fabric installation

Contoured tension-fabric technology

High-quality and weather-resistant for outdoor use
A weatherproof tension-fabric display, unlike Textile frames used outdoors, because these PVC tension fabrics are highly resistant to UV and weather. They are also lit with LEDs and so still have a strong advertising impact outdoors in the dark.

Tension-fabric panel: even illumination even in the dark
Unlike large-format advertising banners, the built-in LED modules light the motif of the tension-fabric system across the full surface and in an energy-saving way. White inner sides of the aluminium frame intensify the brightness further. With this all-round LED lighting, your tension-fabric panel, as an illuminated tension-fabric lightbox, becomes a great eye-catcher even in the dark.

Pretty much any size
The great advantage of tension fabric systems is also the size that can be covered with a single fabric. Unlike one-sided Lightboxes or double-sided illuminated panels, tension-fabric systems can be any size. If, for example, you want a tension fabric that is 4 metres high and 50 metres wide, you're in exactly the right place here – and it comes in one piece, with no seam and no join.

If your tension fabric is to be taller than 4.80 metres, that is no problem either. We would then work with a seam, though, because the maximum height without a seam is 4.80 metres.

Replacement possible
The printed tension fabrics of this large advertising installation can be swapped as often as you like, but only by specialists. That's because the PVC backlit tension fabrics are usually tensioned into the frames with special tools.

This is how tension-fabric systems are built
The front of the LED tension-fabric installations consists of special PVC backlit tension fabrics that are laminated with high-performance films to match the artwork, or printed in the UV printing process. That way you can put any advertising message onto the PVC tension fabrics. The tension fabric itself is stretched in an aluminium frame.

Machines in use
So you can draw attention to yourself with this outdoor advertising, we use our UV printer, and also our milling machine, saws and our welder. Here you will find more info on our machines.

Your questions... our answers!

With an LED lightbox, changing the advertising message is very involved and costly. You can swap the fabric banner.

Sure, if lighting isn't needed. 

For the tension-fabric display we generally use 4-LED modules.

We can paint the tension-fabric frame in any colour.

We use special extruded aluminium profiles as tension-frame profiles.

Yes, but it isn't the aluminium profile that has the rubber lip; it is sewn firmly onto the PVC fabric.

Depending on the size, about four to eight hours. 

No, a normal banner can't be fixed because of the profiles; only the PVC backlit tension fabrics will work.  

We prefer aluminium; we're happy to offer steel profiles on request. 

We fix the PVC backlit cloth with special aluminium tension blocks.

No, the fabric is not fixed to the facade, but the aluminium base is. The PVC banner is then tensioned onto that.

As a rule we use aluminium. For certain requirements, Dibond® is also a good choice.

For that we should sit down together, as there are a lot of factors to take into account.

A special tool is needed for that.

No, there's no guide value. The tension fabrics have a very long service life and can be changed as often as you like.

That doesn't really make sense. If backlighting is wanted, there are much nicer solutions.

Tension fabric systems are always fixed with a profile. If you want to mount the lettering directly on the wall, illuminated letters are the right choice.

On older installations you often see the colours looking faded. We prevent that with an additional UV-protective seal.

We can't say that across the board, because we make every tension fabric individually.

We can build acrylic lightboxes up to a size of 2 x 3 metres. Beyond that, the acrylic sheet would have to be split. With tension-fabric technology you can still build large formats in one piece.

Unlike an opaque banner, this cloth lets light through.

A tension fabric costs more, but it can also do much more than an unlit banner.

Depending on the order situation, you can expect a delivery time of 10 to 15 working days. Depending on urgency, it can sometimes be quicker too.

For a rough calculation, a photo of the facade, the approximate size wanted for the installation and, above all, the installation height at the highest point are enough to start with.
