Tenter frame printed - SlimFrame
Tensioning frame made of different materials including individually printed textile tensioning fabric which is attached to the frame profile by means of a silicone piping sewn into the tensioning fabric.
Our stretch frames are all of high quality workmanship and uncomplicated to use. All tenter frames guarantee a quick and easy change of motif. A very special version is our illuminated tenter frames, which have a high-quality, low-maintenance LED light field integrated.
The aluminium clamping frame profiles are available in a maximum length of 6 metres. Here, a precision laser cut ensures the exact mitre angle that meets the high demands of gallery owners and exhibition stand builders. New orders for changeable motifs are easy to handle, as the ready-made fabrics can be sent rolled without any problems and can be exchanged in the tenter frame on site and stretched without creases. It was no problem to successfully transport the new fabric prints to exhibitions in Dubai or St. Petersburg because of their transportability.

- With the BASIC profile: No stabiliser is used here. The frame is only suitable for direct wall mounting.

- For the DOUBLE profile: A stabiliser is required from 1.70 running metres.
- With the 100 profile: Here, a stabiliser is necessary from 2.00 running metres.

LED lighting has enormous advantages over fluorescent tubes. The energy consumption is much lower and the LED modules are lighter. This saves costs for electricity and transport. A decisive advantage is also the 5 times longer service life of the LEDs and the associated savings for replacement and maintenance.
Lumen: This is the total visible luminous flux produced by a light source.
Lux: This is the illuminance. See the luminous flux that hits a surface, such as the fabric of a light box.
Kelvin: This describes the colour of light:
- 4,000 Kelvin - Warm light
- 6,000 Kelvin - daylight
- 7,000 Kelvin - Cold (blue) light
