Explore the Future of Innovative Printable Textiles

With trade shows back in full swing, people are more excited than ever to gather and see the latest products and services offered up close and personal. The experience of seeing solutions in action may convince many consumers to make purchasing decisions during the shows, so attracting buyers is crucial, and the way to stand out in the large crowd of competitors is with a dynamic booth display.

To succeed at live events, displays must showcase the very best of what an organization or business has to offer, starting with the aesthetics of the space. These live events can generate substantial returns on investment, potentially leading to a significant number of high-quality leads. Thus, being fully prepared to captivate the crowd becomes indispensable.

Our booth at the recent Printing United Expo was our best one yet, dazzling visitors and immersing them in a world of innovation, color, and sensory delight as we showcased stunning displays created with cutting-edge materials from the UFabrik line of digitally printed textiles. With UFabrik, graphics are dynamic, colorful, and high impact, stealing the show every time.

The Future of Digital Printing

While printable textiles have been around for a while, recent innovations have turned this market into a highly competitive arena. UFabrik textiles have set a new industry standard, elevating the bar for excellence. LexJet, as the exclusive North America dealer, offers a specially curated selection that meets a comprehensive array of applications, covering 95% of applications used in exhibition, event, and retail markets. With materials available in 2.6m (102 inches) and 3.2m (126 inches) sizes, UFabrik empowers you to dream big and bring those large-scale projects to life without compromise.

UFabrik stands as a testament to adaptability and high-performance innovation. These fabrics work flawlessly with a broad array of super-wide-format UV, Latex, and dye sublimation technologies, ensuring smooth operation with systems from global frontrunners like EFI.

 

Environmental Consideration

The commitment to exceptional quality at UFabrik also extends to their dedication to environmental stewardship. Several eco-friendly fabric materials ingeniously repurpose single-use plastic waste into vibrant, robust display graphics. Complementing this are polyester-based fabrics, offering the potential for recycling or energy conversion.

Now is the time to stock up on media essential to your customers in the event signage industry.

The integration of technology into learning has become paramount. In an era where education is no longer confined to traditional textbooks and whiteboards, Canon wide format printers, Graphtec cutters, ColorByte Software, and LexJet Print-N-Stick fabric have emerged as a powerful formula that’s revolutionizing education, both inside and outside the classroom. Beyond facilitating day-to-day activities, these cutting-edge tools have the potential to equip students with valuable skills that extend well into their post-school lives.

Enhancing Visual Learning

Canon imagePROGRAF printers are widely used in the education industry to create vibrant and eye-catching everyday classroom materials due to their ease of use, speed, efficiency, and affordability sought after by administrators. These printers enable educators to produce visually engaging and stimulating materials, such as diagrams, signage, and graphics.

LexJet Print-N-Stick Fabric is designed for smooth, effortless application to a wide range of flat surfaces, and it will not rip, wrinkle, or stretch in production, making it easy to cut into any shape.

Limitless Creativity

Graphtec cutters provide an avenue for venturing into creative exploration. From intricate shapes to personalized study aids, these cutters empower students and educators to design interactive learning resources that spark students’ imagination. By involving students in the creation process, these tools encourage active participation, critical thinking, and a hands-on approach to learning that goes beyond textbooks. Students can be challenged to create their own unique multi-dimensional designs and shapes for packaging, fundraising items, art, or science fair projects.

Empowering Practical Skills

ColorByte’s ImagePrint R.E.D. is designed for those looking to make superior prints at an attractive price point. With advanced color management controls, the same intuitive user interface, and by using the driver that ships with the printer, ImagePrint R.E.D. is an attractive option that can “Run Every Device” and can become a powerful resource in any school.  This software works seamlessly with Graphtec cutters to improve workflow efficiency and to help bring shape and dimension to any design. It allows students to familiarize themselves with industry-standard software, making students better prepared for real-world scenarios where digital proficiency is crucial.
