For many years before the availability of exhibition fabrics the standard design of most exhibition stands was bland and uninspiring to both visitors and exhibitors alike. This was a direct result of the limited amount of available rigid media. The advent of a wide variety of textile media that can be printed then easily fabricated now means that stands have become more interesting, are bright and colourful and attract far greater interest from visitors. Take a walk around most shows or fairs and you can easily see the wide range of exhibition fabrics being used.
For a process that is ancient printing on fabric has gone through a very rapid period of development and change in the last ten years.
Screen-printing fabric using flat screens has been the well-established technique for applying colour and design to fabric until recently. This process was suitable for medium to large runs. For very high volume, rotary screen-printing was the normal process. The set up costs to engrave and produce the screens were very high but because of the size of runs they were the most economic.
Digital fabric printing can be achieved by several different methods and has made great advances in recent years. This has meant its importance has increased dramatically due to the fact that print buyers and specifiers recognise these advances. There are many different markets where the reliance upon digital fabric printing is now crucial. One such sector where this has become extremely important is in brand awareness and development.
