Fisher Textiles Introduces New Stretch and Backlit Fabric Media

GF 5020 Gumbee

Fisher Textiles has added two new fabrics to its wide-format line of fabrics for dye sublimation printing.

For stretch applications and tension displays, GF 5020 Gumbee, is 90% Polyester, 10% Spandex and has outstanding stretch and recovery that does not loosen over time. It has an excellent white point and weighs 7.6 oz/yd2.

Available up to 126 in. wide, it uses include exhibit graphics, geometric signage, hanging banners, pillowcase displays, and silicone edge graphics. It is flame retardant and meets NFPA 701, California Title 19, and under ASTM E84, it meets Class A, flame spread index of 25 or less, and smoke developed index of 450 or less.

GF 6051 Super Sonic

For backlit SEG, GF 6051 Super Sonic is an improved version of GF 6050 Super Sonic, its soft, textured knit backlit framing system fabric that produces vibrancy of print, amplified when backlit. It is wrinkle and craze-resistant. Crazing is the spider-web appearance that can be ingrained within graphics that have been printed, folded, and unfolded. Since it does not craze, finished SEGs made with Super Sonic can ship folded instead of on a roll, to save on shipping and storage costs. It has a near-equal stretch, allowing for a perfect fit in framing systems. It weighs 7.7 oz/yd2 and is stocked 126 in. wide. It is flame retardant and meets NFPA 701, California Title 19, DIN-4102 B1, and under ASTM E84, it meets Class A, flame spread index 25 or less, and smoke developed index 450 or less.
