A: Pricing varies significantly based on size, material, quantity, and finishing requirements. For example:

• Small tension frame graphics (2m x 2m): From £50 - £125
• Large seamless fabric graphics (5m x 3m): From £180 - £800
• Exhibition flooring (custom printed): From £60 - £120 per m²
• Lightbox graphics (backlit fabric): From £120 - £350 per panel

These are indicative prices for stand builders and trade partners. Exact pricing depends on:

• Material specification (frontlit, backlit, blockout, eco-friendly)
• Finishing requirements (eyelets, pole pockets, silicone edges)
• Quantity (volume discounts available)
• Turnaround time (express service available at premium)

For accurate trade pricing, request our rate card with your typical project specifications. We offer volume discounts for regular partners.

A: No minimum order value or quantity requirements. We handle single banners through full stand graphics and high-volume production. Many stand builders start with a small test order to evaluate our quality before committing to larger projects.

A: Our pre-production team reviews all artwork files at no charge as part of our quality control process. This includes resolution checks, color profile verification, bleed/safe zone confirmation and file setup optimisation.

We only charge for substantial artwork services (design from scratch, major corrections, physical proofs). Free Download: Artwork Specification Guide PDF

A: Standard production lead times from artwork approval:

• Fabric graphics (dye-sublimation): 5 - 7 working days
• UV-printed graphics (rigid/mesh): 5 - 7 working days
• Exhibition flooring: 5 - 7 working days (includes carpet printing)
• Complex projects with custom finishing: Depends on special project requirements

Lead times start from final artwork approval, not order placement. Allow 2 – 3 days for artwork review. Peak season: book early (Sept – Oct).

A: Yes, 24/7 production facility with express services:

• 24-48 hour turnaround for most fabric graphics
• Same-day production available (subject to spec & availability)
• Weekend & bank-holiday production on request

Express pricing: 24 – 48 hour service typically +30–50% over standard. For availability call 0113 205 5185.
Check Emergency Production Availability

A: Yes, we run a 24/7 facility, have 9 global factories for overflow, and a dedicated express line. Example scenarios: last-minute approvals, damaged graphics, peak season overflow. For urgent jobs please call rather than email.

A: Changes before production is free, lead time restarts from new approval. After printing starts: we'll assess the progress, quote reprint costs if necessary, or offer express production. Use artwork review to minimise late changes.

A: Recommended booking windows:

• 6 - 8 weeks: ideal (secure slots & design iterations)
• 4 - 6 weeks: standard booking
• 2 - 4 weeks: achievable with express
• <2 weeks: call immediately for emergency assessment

A: Two complementary processes:

Dye-Sublimation: heat-transfer for polyester fabrics (vibrant, permanent, washable, seamless up to 5m).

UV-LED Printing: instant-cure UV inks for mesh, rigid and Foamex up to 5.2m, with white & varnish options.

A: Dye-sublimation converts dyes to gas at high temperature, bonding into fibres. Benefits include permanent color, washability, no cracking, and seamless printing for large textiles, ideal for tension frames and fabric walls and displays.

• Permanent colour, no surface cracking
• Washable and lightweight
• Fire-rated compatible with B1/M1 fabrics

A: Color management across pre-production, calibrated printers, inline monitoring, and digital job records for repeat orders; physical proofs available for critical jobs.

A: Quality checks begin at artwork review, inline print monitoring, post-production finishing inspection, packaging check and documentation (including fire certificates where required). We aim for a 99.5% first-time approval rate and reprint at our cost if we are at fault.

A: We reprint printing errors at our cost, expedite production to meet deadlines and cover express delivery where required. Customer-supplied artwork errors and approved-proof mismatches are excluded.

A: Yes, we provide B1, M1, and Crib 5 (UK upholstery) certificates where applicable. Certificates are supplied with material orders and are specific to the substrate used. Note: the fire rating applies to the base fabric/substrate; our dye-sublimation inks are water-based and do not affect rating.

Frontlit (Jet Display): standard polyester for tension frames. Backlit (Lumiweave): engineered for even LED diffusion. Blockout (Fabriblock): 100% light-blocking for double-sided displays. All are available with B1 certification.

A: Lifespan varies by material and use. Expected examples:

• Fabric graphics (indoor): 5+ years with proper storage
• UV-printed outdoor banners: ~3 – 5 years depending on exposure
• Exhibition flooring: 50 – 100+ events depending on material

Store rolled, dry and away from sunlight to maximise life; wash fabric graphics when needed.

A: Dye-sublimation fabric: machine washable 30–40°C with mild detergent. UV-printed rigid: wipe clean with damp cloth; do not machine wash.

A: Preferred formats: PDF/X-1a or PDF/X-4; also accept AI, TIFF, high-res JPEG, EPS. Not suitable: PowerPoint/Word/low-res web images.

• Resolution: min 100 dpi @ full size; recommended 150 dpi; max 300 dpi
• Color mode: sRGB or Adobe RGB (embed profiles)
• Bleed: 50mm for fabric, 25mm for rigid; safe zone 50–100mm
• Outline or embed fonts; flatten transparency

A: Yes, we pre-flight files at no-charge for technical checks. Chargeable services include file rebuilding, resizing, color-matching and conversion of unsuitable formats; we quote prior to work.

A: We are primarily a manufacturer/printer. We provide technical artwork preparation but do not offer creative design services to avoid competing with agencies and stand builders. We can recommend trusted exhibition designers where needed.

A: It depends on the size & viewing distance. Large backdrops viewed from several metres can use 100–150 dpi; close-up graphics need 150–300 dpi. We will assess files and advise on suitability or alternatives.

A: We manufacture for major modular systems (SEGO, Aluvision, BeMatrix, Octanorm, Pixlip, etc.) plus SEG silicone-edge systems and bespoke frames. Provide manufacturer/model/dimensions for exact fit.

A: Yes, direct-to-venue is standard. We regularly serve NEC Birmingham, ExCeL London, Manchester Central, SEC Glasgow, Olympia and more. Provide venue name, show and stand number when ordering.

A: Options: tracked courier (DPD/DHL/etc.), pallet delivery for large/rigid items, timed direct-to-venue deliveries, international shipping with customs support, or collection from Leeds.

A: All deliveries tracked & insured. If damaged, send photos immediately; we will arrange replacement production and expedited delivery, and handle the insurance claim. Packaging is designed to minimise damage risk.

A: Yes, white-label is central to our model. You order under your company name, we manufacture behind the scenes and your client relationship remains untouched. Graphics can be delivered packed with your branding.

Why stand builders choose white-label partnerships:

• Focus on core business: design & build without in-house print investment
• Client relationship protection — we never contact your end clients
• Consistent quality: deliver reliable production without capital outlay
• Scalability: handle larger or multiple projects without extra equipment

A: To set up trade terms: request our trade pack, provide company details and typical annual volumes, and we'll issue a rate card and onboarding documentation. No long-term commitment is required — contact the trade team to start.

Request Trade Partnership Information

A: Yes, we provide PVC-free fabric options (Enviro Display, ECO Lumiweave Backlit) which are B1-rated and recyclable. We use water-based dye-sublimation inks, LED UV curing, and run recycling programmes to collect used graphics.

Eco materials are competitively priced and we can supply sustainability documentation to support bids/tenders.
