Lightweight Studio Divider (100gsm WP) — An opaque core between two faces — zero light bleed, zero show-through, media-wall flat, specified for room dividers.
Blockout is a layered construction, not a thick single cloth. An opaque core sits between the printable face and the reverse, so no light passes through and nothing printed on one side is visible from the other. That is what lets a press wall photograph clean under flash and a room divider actually divide a room.
A divider has to do a physical job — actually separating one space from another — while looking like it belongs in the room. Opacity and stability are the two specifications that decide whether it succeeds.
Best for
- Folding multi-panel dividers
- Floor-to-ceiling divider panels
- Office cubicle and desk dividers
- Acoustic office dividers
- Studio and event zoning panels
Key advantages
- Opaque core stops light bleed completely — critical under event lighting and camera flash
- No show-through, so each face can carry entirely different artwork
- Hangs flat and dead-still indoors, which is what step-and-repeat photography needs
- Dense construction holds deep blacks without the backlighting wash you get on thin cloth
- Long indoor service life across many repeat installations

Choosing the right specification
If the point is privacy, insist on a genuine blockout construction. A single opaque-looking cloth will silhouette anyone moving behind it the moment the light is stronger on their side. If the point is noise as much as sight, an acoustic felt does real work that a printed cloth on a frame does not.
How ordering works
- Send your artwork — Upload print-ready artwork at any stage — we check scale, resolution and bleed before anything goes to press and come back to you if something needs adjusting.
- Made to your size — Every panel is cut and finished to your dimensions. Tell us the finished size you need and how it is being fixed, and we will allow for hems and fixings correctly.
- Printed by dye-sublimation — Colour is transferred into the polyester fibre under heat, so the image becomes part of the cloth rather than a layer sitting on top of it.
- Finished and shipped — Hems, eyelets, pole pockets, silicone edge and other finishing are applied before your order is folded, boxed and dispatched worldwide.

This is the 100gsm version. The same specification is also made as Blockout Room Divider (250gsm) — the fabric, print method and finishing are identical across them, so the only decision is which size fits your setup.
Technical detail
What to expect from service life. Indoors and out of direct sun, printed polyester holds its appearance for five years or more. Outdoors, published ranges for dye-sublimated polyester run from roughly six to twenty-four months depending on how exposed the position is, with the shorter end applying in high-ultraviolet regions such as the Southwest, Florida and the Gulf Coast, and in coastal or high-wind locations. Sheltered and north-facing installations reach the longer end. Coated and tarpaulin-grade constructions extend beyond that band because the coating carries the UV load.
Best suited to
Indoor work where light control is the whole point — press walls, media and sponsor walls, stage backdrops, room dividers and hanging panels.
