Fisher Textiles has added three fabric media for SEG and soft signage to its Enviro-Tex fabric line for dye-sublimation printing. All the media are made with 100 percent post-consumer recycled polyester and have a better white point that traditional textiles made from post-consumer waste. Using recycled polyester yarns not only keeps PET bottles out of landfills, it also reduces energy consumption and conserves petroleum resources used to produce virgin polyester.
The new ET8050 Super Sonic for backlit SEG and banners contains 48.7 recycled PET bottles (500ml) per linear yard. It is a soft, sueded knit fabric that produces excellent vibrancy of print, amplified when backlit. Then, ET9410 Soft Knit for frontlit SEG, banners and backdrops contains 32.9 recycled PET bottles (500ml) per linear yard. The fabric is extremely wrinkle resistant and soft. It is the best economical graphic for retailers on tight budgets.
