3M Launches Substrate for Backlit Signage

MINNEAPOLIS, MN - June 20, 2018 - 3M is excited to launch its latest solution for backlit signs: an extra-wide, 5-m. (197-inch) version of 3M Envision Flexible Substrate FS-1. This expanded addition allows shops to create larger, brighter sign faces, while reducing the need for seams.

The Envision FS-1 line of flexible substrates – which now comes in roll widths ranging from 59 inches to 197 inches – is engineered to be more light transmissive and energy efficient, because it requires fewer LEDs to achieve the desired luminosity. The 3M Panagraphics III Wide Width Flexible Substrate – typically recommended for fluorescent light sources – is also available in 59-inch to 197-inch wide rolls.
