Primex fabric banners are available in 3 different printing methods:
PREMIUM (Transfer-Sublimation) – highest color brilliance & quality
In transfer sublimation printing, the design is first printed onto special paper and then transferred to the textile fabric using heat. The ink bonds permanently with the fibers. The result is extremely brilliant, photorealistic colors with a high level of detail, a very soft feel, and maximum durability. Ideal for high-quality trade fair, brand, and presentation surfaces.
Print width up to 2.5 m.
ECONOMY (Direct Sublimation) – efficient, fast & price-optimized
In direct sublimation printing, the design is printed directly onto the fabric and then thermally fixed. This process is particularly fast and economical, making it ideal for large formats and high print runs. Color reproduction is good and consistent, though slightly less intense than with premium printing – however, the process impresses with its speed and value for money.
Print width up to 3.0 m.
UV printing on textiles & PVC tarpaulins – versatile & precise
In UV printing, the design is printed directly onto textile or PVC tarpaulin and immediately cured using UV light. This process produces high-contrast, precise prints on fabric banners with excellent dimensional stability, making them ideal for indoor applications with short lead times as well as outdoor applications lasting 3–6 months.
On PVC tarpaulins, the colors are applied to the surface, making them particularly resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and mechanical stress. The result is brilliant, long-lasting prints for outdoor use.
Print width up to 5.0 m.
