The published numbers
Graphics and printing: what it costs and how it is billed
Rates and rules as published by show contractors, venues, surveys and suppliers, with the source and its date beside each. Your show's exhibitor manual has the rates for your dates.
| What the source says | Source | Dated |
|---|---|---|
| Classic Exhibits: "Every design in EDS has a stated lead-time, like 12-17+ Business Days", roughly 2 to 3 weeks, and a shorter date is sometimes "not possible or will require rush charges." | Classic Exhibits | Apr 2025 |
| On file prep for fabric: "The brochure image you printed at 300 ppi can print the same quality at 100 ppi on fabric using a dye-sublimation press", and SEGs "offer easy installation and fabric tensioning for a professional, wrinkle-free appearance." | Classic Exhibits | Apr 2025 |
| A silicone bead sewn to the edge of a tension fabric graphic makes it a Silicone Edge Graphic (SEG); "Fabric is lighter than many other graphics", fabric can be washed and steamed, and graphic production lead times "are based on business days and DO NOT include any shipping days." | Classic Exhibits | Not dated |
| 4OVER4 sells SEG fabric graphics "from $69 a graphic", printed on "6oz fabric with a sewn 10mm silicone edge, non-lit or backlit" and cut to the exact frame size. | 4OVER4 | Not dated |
| A replacement backlit SEG graphic set for a 10 ft booth (back panel viewable 114 x 85 in, dye sublimation on One Planet recycled fabric) lists at $1,659.99 each for 1 to 5 units. | Displays2go | Not dated |
| Vispronet's standard turnaround for SEG graphics is 3 business days, with rush available. | Vispronet | Not dated |
| FedEx Office lists 9 to 11 business days for SEG graphics production plus shipping, starting once a print-ready file is uploaded and paid. | FedEx Office | Not dated |
How it works
Graphics and printing, step by step
- 01
Choose fabric or rigid
Silicone edge graphics (SEG) are lighter, washable and stretch wrinkle-free into a frame; rigid panels suit counters and signs.
- 02
Prepare files at print size
Fabric prints well at 100 ppi at full size, so a large wall does not need brochure-level resolution (Classic Exhibits).
- 03
Allow production time
Lead times run from 3 business days at some online printers to 12 to 17+ business days for exhibit builders, plus shipping.
- 04
Reuse what you can
Replacing only the fabric for the next show keeps the frame you already own.
