PRINTED BACKDROPS

We are a leading UK printer and installer of large format graphics for backdrop printing and wall graphics. Our state-of-the-art in-house printers used both dye-sublimation and UV printing techniques depending on your requirements. Our studio team can design the graphic for you, or you can simply supply your print-ready artwork.

The beauty of MX Display is that we control every step of the process. No third parties. We’ll handle your printed backdrop from start to finish.

There are several types of backdrop printing depending on the requirements. The end result is always a vibrant, high definition print to quality materials.

FABRIC BACKDROPS

We print fabric up to 3 metres wide and up 50 meters long. Our fabric are 100% polyester and can be recycled through specific channels. Once printed with your custom design, the backdrop can be used in one of several ways:

  • Hemmed with a stitched pole pocket to be hung
  • Hemmed and eyeletted to be hung on hooks
  • FabriFrame: edged with a silicone keder to sit within a free-standing aluminium frame
  • FabriGrab: a tensioned fabric wall covering
  • Wrapped and stapled around a timber frame

All these are compatible with our very popular Eco Fabric, which is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles! Depending on the requirement, we also have fabrics made from recycled polyester too.

 

 

FOAMEX BACKDROPS

Foamex is a cost effective sheet material that we print to direct. It is great for cladding a wall as a temporary solution. Foamex is a plastic based product, making it water resistant and lightweight. These sheets can be tiled together to create a continuous graphic. The standard sheet size is 1220 x 2440mm and usually available in 1mm, 3mm, 5mm and 10mm. Foamex can be applied to a wall with an adhesive such as gel-tape or velcro tape or mechanically fixed to a timber frame.

 

 

POPUP STANDS

Portable, popup display stands are common in the events and exhibition industry. They are a lightweight, expandable rod system with magnetic graphics that can easily be updated. The popup itself comes in a range of sizes including straight lines, wavy and curved designs to cover a broad range of footprints. Popup stands are great for product launches, celebrity appearances, book signings and television interviews when the events may tour around the country. Popup stands provide a consistent backdrop for media coverage, photo opportunities and brand awareness.

 

REMOVABLE WALLPAPER

Low-adhesive wallpaper is very popular with museums, galleries and pop-up retail stores. It can totally transform your space and is completely removable, leaving no residue. This product makes a great backdrop graphic for short term events as long as the wall is of good quality. This will not fix to brick or stonework, when a fabric system would be better suited.

Fabric Backdrops

We printed and produced a selection of graphics, including vibrant fabric graphics, custom wallpaper and printed window films, cut brushed steel lettering and acrylic text.

 

We suggested a clever fabric system called FabriFrame to partition the canteen serving area from the eating area which spanned across a busy thoroughfare. This solution offered some acoustic benefit in a large room and visually created a printed backdrop for staff to relax or eat their lunch. The frames had a double-sided graphic that promoted their cars in food-related surroundings.

 

FabriGrab is a versatile system which we used for the printed backdrop behind the Kia car. The fabric uses a thin frame that sits only a few millimetres away from the wall to create a bright, smooth finish. It is ideal for walls that are damaged or uneven. The low-profie of FabriGrab means it can easily be fitted around sockets and switches to give an appearance of wallpaper without any joins. It can be easily updated with a new fabric design when required.

Fabric Signage

FABRIC SIGNAGE AND WALL GRAPHICS

This was a fantastic project that included a wide variety of custom wall graphics and signage, which delivered a superb finish for our friends at Ashlar Projects. We worked closely with the interior design team at Ashlar to turn their big ideas into production-ready artwork, all of which is printed and cut in-house and installed by our professional installation team.

 

Their tech client, DigiHaul had converted old stables into inspirational offices that promoted teamwork, creativity and sustainability. The design took inspiration from Hatfield House itself with features such as panelling, exposed oak beams, oak staircases, The Sundial Kitchen, The Culture Hub and the Queen Elizabeth I Café Area. Each space throughout the building is filled with motivational & inspirational quotes creating a stimulating and welcoming environment for employees.

 

The spaces reflect the history of the building as well as incorporating modern features inspired by the digital and logistic nature of the company. The Performance room colours and wall graphics hint at futuristic, digitalisation and highlight the relationship to the company itself, all whilst sat within the historical space providing visual comparison between past & future. The themed meeting rooms create a contemporary immersive atmosphere providing users with a unique experience. These also took inspiration from the history of the house including movies filmed there and a gallery of historical images from its Royal past.

INSTALLATION

This large project was installed by 4 of our fitting team over 5 days. Working alongside fellow contractor, our team had to be flexible and time-efficent to ensure that they building was signed off and handed-over on time.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

CAN YOU HELP ME WITH ARTWORK?

CAN I SEE A SAMPLE?

HOW DO I MEASURE MY WALL?

CAN THE IMAGE BE A PHOTOGRAPH?

Our professional studio can help set up your artwork for print. The MX Studio have years of experience and work closely with our production team to achieve vibrant, high-definition fabric prints. We have a huge resource of images, so if you’re struggling to find something particular, let us generate a selection for you to choose from. Contact one of our Account Managers who can have a chat about exactly what you’re looking for.

Of course we can send you a sample, so you can see the fantastic quality and impressive print detail. If you need a particular size or perhaps a section of your own design for a larger project, we can arrange this too. Just contact one of our Account Managers who will happily coordinate this for you.

Measure your wall or space and send us the dimensions in millimetres. If you’re concerned or unable to do this, we can send one of our Installation Team who can do this for you. If you choose to measure the space yourself, we cannot take any responsibility for incorrectly sized graphics.

It can be anything! A photograph, a logo, a drawing. As long you have license or copyright (you or your company own it), we can print it.

 

It’s important to note, although we can print it, we cannot guarantee the quality of a low-resolution snap from your camera phone. We have specialist software to enhance poor-quality imagery, but there’s a limit to our magic. So it’s best to get a sample or at least one of our studio team to check the image. Your Account Manager can arrange this for you.

PLANET-FRIENDLY FABRIC

To create our fabric display graphics, we print your designs onto our Eco Fabric. This planet-friendly fabric is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles and is completely recyclable too. Each roll we print saves over 3,000 bottles from ending up in the ocean. It’s also a great option if you need regularly swap out seasonal campaigns because it pairs perfectly with our aluminium FABRIFrames. We’ll print a new design and send it out to you in the post. All you need to do is recycle the new one and pop it into the frame.
