Custom 9mil backlit poster printing is a large format printing option for lightbox posters, illuminated display graphics, POP displays, exhibition panels, movie posters, transportation signage, kiosk graphics, retail lightbox signs, menu displays, advertising panels, and backlit promotional signage.
SoCal Business Cards provides professional large format printing for businesses, retailers, restaurants, theaters, event venues, trade show exhibitors, transportation advertisers, offices, hospitality brands, and organizations across Southern California including Costa Mesa, Irvine, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Anaheim, Los Angeles, and San Diego. Our backlit posters are printed in full color on 9mil semi-rigid backlit material with a glossy topcoat for vivid illuminated graphics.
These custom backlit posters are commonly used for retail lightboxes, menu boards, product displays, trade show panels, theater posters, bus stop displays, transit signage, kiosk graphics, mall displays, and indoor promotional signs that need strong color and light diffusion.
Backlit posters are ideal for customers who need graphics that stay visible in low-light environments or illuminated display cases. The material is designed to diffuse light evenly so printed colors appear bright and vibrant when placed inside a compatible lightbox.
Backlit posters may be used outdoors only when placed inside a lightbox or display system that provides UV-protective cover sheets such as styrene or acrylic. The display housing should protect the printed poster from direct weather exposure.
Backlit poster artwork should be submitted in CMYK color mode with high-resolution files whenever possible. Add 0.25" bleed per side and keep important text, logos, borders, and design elements at least 0.5" inside the final trim size.
Pair your backlit posters with large format printing, glossy photo paper poster printing, semi-gloss photo paper poster printing, and custom acrylic signs for a consistent branded presentation.
