Provide us with your high resolution logo(s) and we will get you a proof of the artwork prior to printing, so you'll know exactly what it looks like before it goes to print.

• 1 design revision, if needed

PLEASE NOTE: The basic design setup package does not cover editing logos or images. You will need to provide a high resolution or vector logo or image for the design set up, if you need adjustments to those files you will need to do it on your end and re-submit the logo/image. In some situations we can make "simple" adjustments, however, this will incur additional design time fees.

Do you need more than the basic step and repeat design package?

Do you have more than 2 logos?

We can setup a step and repeat design for up to a maximum 5 logos, for an extra $10 per logo after 2 logos.

Do you have more than 5 logos?

If you have more than 5 logos, then the project would move into full design time set up at $125 hour. Please contact our customer service team to receive a custom quote on your step and repeat design set up.

Do you want your logo(s) larger?

If you want your logo(s) larger than the designated 11"x7" area then this put push your order into design time at $125 hour as we will have to adjust our setup processes to accommodate the larger sizing.

Do you want your step and repeat design set up in a specific design outside of the 4 design layout choices?

In this case your design idea or concept will need to be reviewed by our team to make sure we are able to accommodate the design set up in house. If we can do it, design time is billed at $125 hour, if we are unable to do it in house we will recommend you to a freelance graphic designer. Contact our team with your idea.

Fabric Dye Sublimation Process

We use a Dye Sublimation printing process to print all of our fabric products. Dye Sublimation printing is a top-of-the-line printing process which produces vibrant, permanent printed graphics on soft polyester fabric. The dye-sublimation printer heats up to about 400 degrees to bond the dye to the fabric fibers permanently dying the fabric. The fabric print is long lasting and washable and won't peel off like other screen-printed fabric products.

Advantages of Dye Sublimation

• Graphics are permanent and waterproof
• Fabric is washable in cold water with air dry
• Colors are vibrant and long lasting
• True continuous tones equivalent to photographs

Pop Up Expanding Frames

The Pop Up frames are made of aluminum struts with plastic joints and ends. The sections of the frame allow the frame to expand to full size while pulling the fabric tight and when you're done the frame will collapse into a smaller size making it easy to travel with and store. The frame has Velcro around its edges that holds the fabric in place, the fabric can remain on the frame when collapsed and stored away.

Light Blocking Liner

Our light blocking liners are made of a gray fabric material specially designed to block out any traveling light. We recommend adding a light blocking liner to your Pop Up Frames because they tend to allow a lot of light to flow through the fabric causing a shadow of the frame.

If you have placing your Tension Fabric Pop Up Display against a solid wall and there won't be any light sources behind it then you won't need a light blocking liner.

LED Lights & Hard Carrying Case (Not Included)

Our LED Lights are 18w and they clip on the top of the pop up frame. Lights are a great way to draw attention to your display. Keep in mind the lights do have a cord and will need to be plugged in, you'll want to check with the event hall to see if you need special permissions to use the lights with your display. LED lights are not recommended for double sided displays, due to the cords hanging down from the lights. See our LED Lights section for more information.

The hard carrying case makes it easier to travel with your zip stands as well as offering extra protection. The hard carrying cases can fit the zip stand frames and fabric. Keep in mind we don't recommend using the hard case as a shipping case, in our experience shipping the case as is tends to be too rough on the locks, latches and joints on the cases and they tend to break very easily during shipping. Also, most shipping carriers will charge you an extra fee for shipping the case without a corrugated box. See our Medium 3 Hard Case for more information.

Light Blocking Liner

Because of the structure of the pop up frame, shadows can be seen from the front side if there is backlighting. The light blocking liner is made of an opaque material that blocks any backlighting from creating these shadows onto the graphic. The liner is recommended if you're unsure about the lighting at your event especially if you will not be using the add-on lights. The liner will be shipped folded, unattached from the frame. Upon receipt, the liner is applied by hooking the square holes over the front top knuckles of the frame draping the rest along the backside of the frame. To keep the liner in place, velcro strips are placed on the back top knuckles of the frame as well as the bottom left and right corners of the fabric. When it's time to disassemble, the liner needs to be removed before collapsing the frame

• No: No light blocking liner will be added
• Yes: opaque material that blocks out light will be added to the display

LED Lights

• None: no lights will be provided
• Add 3 LED Lights: LED lights that slide onto a clip at the top of the frame. You always want light on your display and the more the better. We recommend at least 3 LED lights for the 10x10 Popup Frame. The 10 ft wide frame has attachment light brackets on the frame for up to 5 lights.

Upload your File or logo(s)

• You can normally attach the file with the product order in the "File Upload" option on the product.
• Larger files can sometimes stall the order, if that is the case just remove the file from the product option and use the file upload link at the top of the site anytime after your order is placed.
• Upload your print ready file or up to 2 logos for design set up (if you have more than 2 logos please reach out to our customer service team for a custom design quote)

Care & Use of the Pop Up Displays

We use a dye sublimation process to print on lightweight 100% woven polyester crease resistant fabric. The dye sublimation process permanently dyes the fabric creating a vivid colorful graphic that does not peel or fade. Your custom printed fabric is washable and folds up for easy storage. 

Washing your fabric backdrop

• You can place your fabric into a washing machine on "Cold Setting", as long as it fits, to get out any dirt.
• To dry the fabric you should hang it back on the frame and let it air dry.  Being a polyester fabric, it is almost dry as it comes out of the spin cycle.

Steaming

• We recommend using a steamer to remove creases and wrinkles that may happen from folding

Lifespan

• Your printed fabric will last many years with normal care. Slight fading may occur with multiple washes and may also occur when exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time.

DO NOT STORE FABRIC IN PLASTIC. STORE IN A COOL DRY PLACE

Common Questions?

Can my pop up display go outside?

While all of the components of the frame and fabric are water proof, and will withstand rain, they are not made to withstand a wind.  Wind will easily blow the frame over and damage it.  You can attach the frame to another structure, but you then run the risk of breaking the frame with the pressures the wind puts on the whole structure.

Is it easy to set up a Pop Up Display?

Yes, they are the easiest frames to set up.  Just a warning - never push the frame to open if you feel a resistance.  The resistance is not normal and usually means something is bound up (usually the fabric is attached on the frame is some place that it shouldn't be)

How many colors or details can I use in my artwork, will it cost extra?

You can use any number of colors or any amount of detail in your artwork without incurring any additional fees. We print our fabric using a digital technology, dye sublimation process and it prints just as a regular digital printer would. Since we are not using a screen printing process we are not limited to the colors to details like other fabric printers.

What color profile should I set up my artwork in?

We accept CMYK, RGB, mixed colors and Pantone colors. We do use a 4-color process and each color profile will be converted to meet the original coloring as closely as possible.

When will I get a proof?

Typically, you'll receive a proof via email from our graphics department within 1-2 hours of placing the order, if the order is placed during regular business hours of 8:30am - 5pm EST, Monday - Friday, with the exception of holidays. If you place your order during off hours/days, you'll receive a proof 1-2 hours from the time we re-open.

I don't have a print ready file or software to set up the artwork, how can I get artwork set up for my order?

Unfortunately, we don't offer artwork set up in house. Good websites to find graphic designers are fiverr.com or 99designs.com. If you are not able to find a designer please contact us and we can refer you to freelance designers we work with often.

I realized I send the wrong file when I received the proof, what do I do?

No worries, this is why we send proofs! If you realized something is wrong in your artwork or sent the wrong file, simply respond to the graphics proof email, and let them know if you are sending a new file. Our graphics team will always send you updated proofs, and nothing goes to print without your approval.

I approved of the proof then realized it was wrong, what do I do?

We work fast over here, once the proof is approved it moves to production quickly. If you realize the proof was wrong after approving contact us as soon as possible. We can try to holt production if your order has not started to print yet. Once it starts printing it will be hard to pull it back at that point so the sooner you can let us know the better chances, we have to stop it.
