But what exactly is backlit fabric? And how is it produced? What technology is used in the backlit fabric printing process?
The graphics on a backlit fabric are created with a dye sublimation transfer printing technology. As the name suggests, backlit fabric is typically illuminated with lighting mounted behind the fabric image. The lighting at the back perfectly illuminates the image, vividly bringing it to life.
