Fascinating light effects shone over the Junkers & Müllers exhibition stand at FESPA. Visitors were pulled deep into the picture by the oversized reproduction of a metropolis by night – a photo by photographer Axel Schmies from Hamburg. This photo is one of the artworks from the "Light & Art" series that lets us forget the limits of two-dimensionality. In London Junkers & Müllers showed various "Light & Art" motives, reproduced on a variety of textiles. Be it reproductions of extreme sizes or the brilliant array of colors in back-lit constructions as well as the extremely detailed reproduction of the most delicate imaging patterns – all reasons which have convinced Axel Schmies of the textiles by Junkers & Müllers. From the wealth of new developments presented this year at the FESPA, the following highlights are particularly interesting: So for example the product specially developed for UV printing, "JM-Mediatex Illuminance", which particularly allows the colors of the prints to shine in the backlighting and is certified as flame-retardant according to B1 including UV-curing inks. The new backlit quality "JM-Mediatex Polaris" also displays a very good light dispersion. This ensures the uniform illumination of brilliant views. This mildly flexible fabric is suitable for both sublimation printing and for UV and HP latex inks. The temperature-resistant coating on this product, as well as on the dense "JM-Mediatex Nero" product, guarantees that disturbing odors do not develop in thermal treatment on the calender and that the brilliant degree of whiteness is not impaired by yellowing. The plastic surface does not become sticky in high temperatures, guaranteeing transportation without any problems. Due to the product width of 310 cm, both qualities are particularly suited to large-scale printing. Whether it is printed with solvent, UV-curing or HP latex inks, the new "JM-Mediatex Allegro" is suitable for both interior and outdoor applications. It can be processed completely free of creases in framing systems thanks to its light stretch effect. "JM-Mediatex Leonardo" has been specially developed for art reproductions with water-based pigment inks. The brilliant white special coating does not display any white or coating streaks. The quality "JM-Mediatex Botticelli" is particularly recommended for printing with HP latex or solvent inks. The very soft, flexible item "JM-Mediatex Vento" is perfect for processing in frames. This means white streaks can be ruled out. As all products of the house of Junkers & Müllers also these new developments carry the Oeko-Tex-Seal.
