Enhance a Colour is pleased to announce that for the first time ever, 16 foot wide dye sublimated printing is now available for theater, opera, and concert backdrops. We have the only 16 foot wide dye sublimation unit in the United States. EAC has spent years perfecting a process that creates incredibly rich looking, colorful backdrops.
Dye Sublimated Theater Backdrop Color: The color gamut when using dye sublimation ink is much greater than solvent printing to fabric. For example, black is a color that is almost impossible to create using solvent printed fabric, but using the dye sublimated printing process brings out the richest black colors.

EaC was hired to manufacture backdrop visuals for this production. With our 16 ft. heat press, we were able to produce a vivid, nearly seamless visual on a material that allowed the production house to create a specialized lighting effect. We also produced 15 units that looked like solid wood but became transparent when backlit. Each of these units was a different size and had to be wrapped around real wooden frames. The set designer and the production house were thrilled with the oversized fabric and it can be seen at the Paper Mill Playhouse.

Producing billboards from regular vinyl and mesh is no difficult task for EaC. Now even that was not the case last week when an event company asked for two billboards in Times Square standing side by side, imaged on different materials illuminated different but keeping a uniform look. We were commissioned to produce two billboards, each 30 feet by 50 feet, for the season opening of a TV series for the Starz Network. One billboard was to be lit from both the front and back, while the other was to be only backlit. Using both a backlit vinyl and a mesh vinyl we were able to adjust for the lighting and get both to appear as if they were lit the same way. The final result? Two large billboards and one happy customer.
