Our team creates print-ready artwork tailored to your brand, product, or event — and understands the visual preferences of Chennai's Automobile & Auto Components and IT & IT-Enabled Services market.
Can fabric prints be washed?
Yes, dye-sublimation fabric prints can be machine washed on a gentle cycle. The colours are infused into the fabric fibres and will not fade or peel with washing.
What is dye-sublimation printing?
Dye-sublimation is a process where heat converts solid dye into gas, which then bonds permanently with polyester fabric fibres. This produces vibrant, long-lasting prints with no texture or coating on the surface.
Is fabric printing better than flex for trade shows?
For trade shows, fabric printing is generally superior because it is lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, easy to transport, produces no glare under lights, and looks more premium than flex.
What is the maximum width for fabric printing?
We can print fabric up to 10 feet (3.2 meters) wide seamlessly. Wider displays can be created using fabric with sewn seams.
Are fabric prints fire-retardant?
We offer fire-retardant fabric options that comply with venue safety requirements. Please specify this need when placing your order.
What is dye-sublimation fabric printing?
Dye-sublimation is a heat transfer process where designs are printed on transfer paper using special inks, then pressed onto polyester fabric at 200°C. The ink converts to gas and permanently bonds with polyester fibers. The result is a vibrant, photo-quality print that's wash-proof, scratch-proof, and fade-resistant. It only works on polyester or polyester-coated fabrics.
How much does fabric banner printing cost?
Fabric banner printing costs ₹40-90 per square foot depending on fabric type (flag: ₹40-55, knit: ₹45-65, satin: ₹55-80, canvas: ₹60-90), quantity, and finishing. A 10×8 ft backdrop on polyester knit costs ₹3,600-5,200 for print only, or ₹12,000-18,000 with SEG tension frame. Bulk event orders of 200+ sq ft receive 15-20% discounts.
Can fabric banners be washed and reused?
Yes, sublimation-printed polyester fabrics are machine washable at 30°C with mild detergent. Colors remain vibrant after 50+ washes. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat. Iron on low if needed (though polyester knit typically doesn't wrinkle). This washability makes fabric banners ideal for frequent events, reducing cost per use with every reuse.
What is SEG (Silicone Edge Graphics)?
SEG is a display system where a thin silicone strip is sewn along the fabric edges. This strip pushes into a groove on an aluminum frame, creating a drum-tight, wrinkle-free display. SEG frames are available in various sizes and can be wall-mounted, freestanding, or suspended. The fabric is interchangeable -change graphics without replacing the frame.
Is fabric printing better than flex banner printing?
Fabric offers superior visual quality, no glare, better photographs, washability, reusability (50+ uses), lightweight portability, and eco-friendliness. Flex is cheaper per print (₹8-18/sq ft vs ₹40-90/sq ft) and more weather-resistant for permanent outdoor use. Choose fabric for indoor/premium applications and flex for outdoor/budget signage.
What is the minimum order for fabric printing?
PrintsWallah accepts single-piece fabric printing orders with no minimum. However, setup costs mean smaller orders have higher per-unit costs. For best pricing, order 50+ sq ft. For fabric flags, minimum 10 pieces recommended for economical pricing. Custom table throws and chair covers: minimum 5 pieces.
Can fabric banners be used outdoors?
Yes, but with considerations. Polyester flag fabric (110-130 GSM) is designed for outdoor use and handles rain, wind, and sun for 6-12 months. Heavier polyester knit (220+ GSM) can be used outdoors for shorter periods. Canvas is not recommended outdoors without water-repellent treatment. For permanent outdoor fabric displays, we recommend UV-resistant coated polyester.
How do fabric banners compare to vinyl banners in weight?
Fabric banners are dramatically lighter. A 10×8 ft polyester knit banner weighs approximately 1 kg vs 4-5 kg for equivalent 440 GSM PVC flex. This means easier handling, lower shipping costs (up to 70% savings), simpler installation, and reduced structural load on frames and mounting points. For traveling exhibitions, fabric saves significant logistics costs.
Do you print custom table throws and chair covers?
Yes, PrintsWallah produces full-color sublimated table throws (4ft, 6ft, 8ft), table runners, chair covers, and fitted tablecloths. Popular for corporate events, trade shows, and exhibitions. A standard 6ft three-sided table throw costs ₹3,500-5,000 with all-over custom printing. These are washable and reusable for 50+ events.
What resolution is needed for fabric banner printing?
Minimum 100 DPI at actual print size for large backdrops viewed from 3+ meters. 150-200 DPI recommended for medium-size displays. 300 DPI for close-viewing canvas art prints. Fabric printing generally requires slightly lower resolution than paper printing because the fabric texture diffuses fine detail. Submit files in RGB mode for sublimation for widest color gamut.
