| Pop-Up Displays
Pop-up displays are one of the most common types of trade show backdrops or booth graphics used today. Producing the panels for these displays is challenging because of the constant rolling and unrolling of each individual panel.
The panels must be flexible enough to wrap around the end of the display without retaining any curl set from being rolled up for extended periods of time in storage containers.
When applied onto the pop-up display, each individual panel must lay flat with no distortion and provide little or no glare due to ambient lighting conditions that could affect the viewing of the completed pop-up display. A scuff resistant finish is also recommended to protect the panels due to excessive handling.
The SEAL Pop-up display solution caters to all of these requirements to provide vibrant and durable Pop-up display graphics.
How to Produce
Pop-up displays can be produced in one pass through a heated or cold roller laminator using an over-laminating film and a backing film.
- Load your over-laminating film on the top supply shaft and backing film on the bottom supply shaft of your laminator.
- Check your recommended machine settings and film webbing.
- Slowly insert the image into the laminator
- Trim image panel to size.

Application Notes
* Pressure-sensitive versions of Deep Crystal and Stoplight are also available if your laminator will only process cold materials. An additional wind up shaft may be required to take up the release liner from the bottom supply shaft.
Use Stoplight 220 on the end caps of pop-up display panels or for tight radius corners. Stoplight 320 should be used on middle panels of multi-panel displays.
Pop-up panels are usually trimmed flush. If you need to encapsulate, leave approximately 1/8" to 3/16" lamination film beyond the physical edge of your print to improve product longevity.
Adhesion Compatibility - Ink chemistry varies significantly according to different print technologies and can affect compatibility of the adhesive from the laminating film to the surface of the printed media. We would advise that you take a small sample and do an adhesion test to make sure you have good adhesion between the printed surface and adhesive before producing your product.
Please refer to product data sheets for process setting and running conditions.
