Backlit display FR has been developed for back-lit displays but is a great choice for banners, art reproduction and lampshades.

The structure of the fabric provides great light distribution and a soft / matt finish. As a technical fabric, this a great choice for customer printing fabric for back lit displays.

Usage and Safety Instructions

Backdrops

The main requirements when making backdrops from our fabric are related to fire safety.

The following are relevant standards for fire safety for backdrops:

Standard Description
BS 5867-2:2008 Fabrics for curtains, drapes and window blinds - Flammability requirements. Specification
EN 1102:2016 Textiles and textile products - Burning behaviour - Curtains and drapes - Detailed procedure to determine the flame spread of vertically oriented specimens
EN 13772:2011 Textiles and textile products - Burning behaviour - Curtains and drapes - Measurement of flame spread of vertically oriented specimens with large ignition source

The exact requirements depend on the end use and where the product is going to be used.

There are few specific requirements for consumer use, however, if the product will end up in a public place, generally the requirements are stricter.

You must make sure your fabric of choice meets the necessary fire safety requirements.

Note that construction of the final piece can change the fire safety characteristics, including the choice of thread, accessories, lining, etc.

If your intend to retail your products, it is highly recommended to get the final products tested for fire safety before marketing them for sale.

Lampshades

If you're making lampshades using our fabric, then you need to make it safely.

The primary concern is heat resistance. There aren't many standards relating to lampshades, but these might apply:

Standard Description
EN IEC 60598-1:2021 Luminaires - Part 1: General requirements and tests

In general, you should make sure your lampshade is electrically safe, and able to resist the heat of the lamp.

You may be safer using an FR rated fabric vs a non-FR rated one, for example.

Dannells make great lampshade kits that have proven the test of time and are widely used not only for individual but also contract manufacture.

Signage

The requirements for signage are similar to that of drapery, curtains and other vertically hung textiles.

The following standards apply:

Standard Description
BS 5867-2:2008 Fabrics for curtains, drapes and window blinds - Flammability requirements. Specification
EN 13772:2011 Textiles and textile products - Burning behaviour - Curtains and drapes - Measurement of flame spread of vertically oriented specimens with large ignition source
EN ISO 6941:2003 Textile fabrics — Burning behaviour — Measurement of flame spread properties of vertically oriented specimens
IMO FTP Code 2010 Part 7 Test for vertically supported textiles and films

You must make sure the fabric has the correct fire safety rating for your end use.

You must also make sure that the signage will be hung and attached correctly.
