Where are laser-cut soft signage products used?
In view of the many advantages that soft signage brings with it due to efficient digital printing and the lightweight polyester fabric, display manufacturers have discovered many different applications for themselves. The products are used both indoors and outdoors. Typical examples are beach flags, flags, banners and pennants. In addition, the advertising industry is a large customer, including advertising banners for construction fences or building advertising. If soft signage is combined with a tenter frame system, it can be used to produce signs and graphics for retail, reception areas, events and trade fairs or shop window displays. Installed in illuminated carriers, display solutions can be used for day / night operation.
Overall, soft signage is very versatile and has a dominant status in the display industry. In the future, solutions will also increasingly be offered in small series via web-on-demand.
