The Best Backlit Fabric for SEG Lightboxes

Testrite has been manufacturing lightboxes for over 60 years. We have spent the last decade plus perfecting the science and art of printing backlit SEG graphics that POP. Our team has tested countless materials, coatings, and print processes to develop what we proudly call the best backlit fabric for SEG (silicone edge graphic) lightboxes.

Backlit fabrics vary widely across the industry, as do the methods of printing them. The best SEG fabric graphics are printed by dye sublimation. This process yields the best quality. Many company's prints are washed out. Testrite's backlit fabric prints feature deep blacks and vibrant colors that POP in any setting.

When your brand is on display, you want a backlit textile engineered specifically for light diffusion, print vibrancy, and tensioning performance. Testrite knows how to deliver flawless results every time.
