Seamless Retail Skin (130gsm Jersey)

Seamless Retail Skin (130gsm Jersey) — Knitted as a continuous tube, so a pillowcase cover slips on with no side seam at all, specified for shop displays.

Circular knitting produces cloth as a seamless tube rather than a flat width that has to be joined. For a pillowcase-style frame cover that removes the vertical seam line entirely — nothing interrupts the artwork as it wraps around the frame edge. It is a small detail that is very visible in photographs of a finished stand.

Retail display fabric works at close range, under retail lighting, in front of customers who are close enough to touch it. That raises the bar on finish quality in a way that distance-viewed signage never does.

Best for

• SEG retail display panels
• Backlit lightbox displays
• In-store feature walls
• Point-of-sale header banners
• Acoustic feature panels

Key advantages

• No side seam — artwork wraps continuously around the frame with nothing to interrupt it
• Slips over a frame in one movement, which makes on-site setup genuinely quick
• Soft knitted stretch conforms closely to the frame profile
• Lightweight and packs small for travelling exhibition kit
• Machine washable between shows

Specifications

Choosing the right specification

At close range, the frame and the edge finish matter as much as the print. Silicone edge graphics sit flush in their extrusion with no visible hem, which is why they look built-in rather than hung. When ordering SEG, always give us your frame make and model — bead sizes vary between systems and a graphic cut for the wrong extrusion will not seat.

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.

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

Pillowcase-style frame covers and seamless tension skins where an uninterrupted wrap around the frame edge matters.
