SignArtEtc offers step and repeat backdrops in both matte vinyl or polyester fabric. While both feature premium 4-color digital printing, which material you choose depends on your personal preference and which most suits your event’s unique needs.
To further help you decide, we offer this guide with the key advantages of each material.
Matte Vinyl
- Budget-Friendly. Vinyl backdrops are less
expensive than their fabric counterparts.
- Durable and Weather Resistant. Vinyl
stands up well against moisture and other damaging elements, making it ideal
for both indoor and outdoor use. Vinyl backdrops are also less likely to rip or
tear.
- Easy Storage and Transport. Vinyl backdrops
are shipped in a tube that can be re-used for transport and storage. Easy to
roll and unroll, you can use the backdrop again and again without problems.
- Wrinkle-Free. The stiffness of vinyl prevents
creases and wrinkles from forming.
- Easy to Clean. Dirt and other grime can easily be wiped off with a little soap and water.
Polyester Fabric
- Minimal Glare. Fabric naturally absorbs
light which prevents glare from ruining the shot. This makes fabric ideal for
events with a lot of flash photography.
- Rich Imagery. The graphics on our fabric
backdrops are digitally printed using a process called dye sublimation —
resulting in long-lasting, color-rich imagery.
- Ink Longevity. Ink printed on fabric is
less likely to chip, smudge or fade, in part because the ink is permanently
bonded to the fibers.
- The “Luxury” Factor. While vinyl is the more economical choice, sometimes an event calls for the more luxurious look of fabric.
