next idea be seen?
How a graphic is lit, where it is installed and how it is handled matter as much as the artwork itself.
Think on a bigger scale.
Explore frontlit and blockout media for solid graphics, or mesh constructions where airflow is part of the installation design. Specify the structure, fixing method and exposure together.
Bring light into play.

| Outdoor billboard or solid banner | PVC frontlit · blockout banner · TPO alternative | Front or rear lighting; opacity; weight; coating; fixing system; expected exposure. |
| Fence or large building graphic | PVC mesh banner | Open area; print detail; liner; edge reinforcement; support and site-specific wind design. |
| Lightbox or illuminated retail sign | Backlit PVC · backlit PET · backlit textile | Light transmission; color under illumination; frame dimensions; stretch and tension. |
| Glass, wall or surface-applied graphic | Adhesive vinyl · window film · adhesive fabric | Surface type; clarity or opacity; adhesive; installation side; removal requirements. |
| Exhibition, roll-up display or flag | Polyester display fabric · PET blockout · PP paper | Stand or frame fit; curl; stretch; opacity; sewing; direct or transfer print route. |
| Rigid sign or fabricated display | PVC foam board · acrylic · ACP · PP hollow board | Thickness; stiffness; surface; print or mounting method; cutting and fixing details. |
Solvent, eco-solvent, UV, latex, aqueous and dye-sublimation processes require different coatings and settings. Compatibility belongs to the selected product grade and printer setup; it is not the same across the whole collection.
The best sample is one
you can test in your workflow.
Print your artwork, evaluate color and handling, and trial the material with the actual adhesive surface, stand, frame or lighting. Share the result with DERFLEX so the production specification follows the approved sample.

What advertising materials does DERFLEX offer?
The range includes PVC frontlit, backlit, blockout and mesh banners; adhesive vinyl and window films; printable textiles and canvas; PP paper, photo paper and PET films; specialty interior and finishing media; and rigid sign boards. Related transfer media and display hardware are linked in the extended range.
How do frontlit, backlit and blockout banners differ?
Frontlit media is designed to be viewed with light falling on the printed face. Backlit media allows illumination from behind. Blockout media uses an opaque layer to control show-through, including selected constructions for double-sided printing. Choose the construction around the lighting and display design.
Which material should I choose for window graphics?
White adhesive vinyl provides an opaque graphic. High-clear film keeps unprinted areas transparent. Frosted film creates a diffused privacy effect. One way vision uses perforations, with visibility affected by lighting. Static cling is a non-adhesive option for suitable smooth glass. Confirm the installation side and removal needs.
Can every material be printed with solvent, UV, latex or sublimation inks?
No. Print compatibility depends on the coating and selected product grade. Aqueous photo media, solvent vinyl and sublimation polyester use different print routes. Share the printer model, ink system, curing or fixation process and intended application so the sample can be evaluated under the correct conditions.
Does DERFLEX support wholesale supply and OEM programs?
Discuss your required material range, product specifications, roll or sheet sizes, volume, labels, packing and destination with DERFLEX. Sample approval, available formats, minimum order quantities and lead times should be confirmed for the selected products and order.
What information is needed for samples and a quotation?
Send the application, indoor or outdoor setting, expected use period, printer and ink system, substrate or reference sample, finish, weight or thickness, dimensions, quantity and delivery destination. Include adhesive, opacity, light transmission or special performance requirements where they affect the application.
