Try before You Buy: Pick up Your Free Fabric Swatch Book While Supplies Last

Selecting fabrics for inkjet printing applicationsInkjet printable fabric is an excellent alternative for a variety of graphics applications – including banner stands, table drapes, point of sale, trade show, backdrops and special events – but picking one can be tricky. Each has its own feel, texture and weight, so that’s why LexJet is offering its customers free swatch books of its popular line of Poly Select fabrics while supplies last.

The swatch book includes un-printed samples of the Poly Select Aqueous and SUV (compatible with solvent, low-solvent, UV-curable and latex) lines.  Each swatch is 3″ x 4.5″ and appears in the order shown on the inside front cover of the book…

LexJet Poly Select Light: Weighs in at 155g, is 7.5 mils thick and with its tight, barely discernable weave it’s ideal for reproducing colorful, finely detailed high-end images and designs.

LexJet Poly Select Medium: Combines the tight weave of the lighter fabric with additional durability and thickness (12 mils).

LexJet Poly Select Heavy: It’s 13 mils thick, 230g and lays nice and flat so it’s easy to work with in production. Plus, it’s glare resistant for consistent viewing in any lighting situation.

LexJet Poly Select Light SUV and LexJet Poly Select Heavy SUV: The solvent/low-solvent/UV-curable/latex compatible versions have similar qualities as the aqueous versions, but are more durable for outdoor displays.

Call a LexJet customer specialist at 800-453-9538 to pick one up before we run out, and here are a few posts that show how LexJet Poly Select fabrics are being used in the field:

SUV: Brilliant New Fabric Available for Solvent, UV Curable and Latex Printers

Printing fabric with solvent, UV-curable and latex printersIf you’re looking for an alternative to the usual banner that provides more visual punch, is easier to work with, cuts down on shipping and has a more elegant look and feel, the new LexJet Poly Select SUV fabrics are a perfect fit.

LexJet Poly Select Light SUV and Poly Select Heavy SUV are compatible with solvent, low-solvent, UV-curable and latex printers. They are durable for up to three months outdoors and one year indoors. Both water-resistant polyester fabrics have a nice satin finish with a bright white surface that offers an expanded color gamut to ensure richer, brilliant color.

LexJet Poly Select Light SUV has tight, barely discernable weave and weighs in at 145g and 7.5 mils thick. It’s perfect for applications that require some type of draping, like table skirts and backdrops, as well as backlit displays, point of purchase, in-store signage, trade show graphics and banner stands.

LexJet Poly Select Heavy SUV weighs in at 250g and 12 mils thick. This heavier fabric lays flat for banner stand graphic production, trade show graphics, window displays, hanging flags and banners, point of purchase and other soft signage applications.

They are similar to the aqueous versions – LexJet Poly Select Light, LexJet Poly Select Heavy and LexJet Poly Select Medium – that are in the market and playing to rave reviews.

The Poly Select Light cloth has become an excellent alternative for a flowing fabric look without the associated costs of real cottons and silks we’ve printed on in the past,” says Joe Menth of Fine Balance Imaging Studios (FBIS) in Langley, Wash.
