About SEG Graphics

Silicone Edge Graphics (SEG) are printed on stretch fabric, then a finished with a thin, silicone strip sewn directly to the edge of the fabric. For installation, the silicone strip is inserted into the recessed channel that’s found along the perimeter of the metal frame. The size of the fabric graphic must be spot on, ensuring that the SEG fabric is drum tight when installed in the frame. SEG frames allow for a smooth clean finished look to your marketing displays. Additionally, new graphics are easily swapped out and some profiles can be backlit too! The backlit graphics are printed on a special 7oz backlit fabric using UV curing.

The light weight aluminum frame needs no tools, and collapses and folds up quickly and easily for set up and dismantle. To set-up the Silicone-Edged Graphics Displays, you need to assemble the frame and then install the graphic by pushing the silicone bead on the edge of the graphic into the grooves in the frame.

About VAIL SEG Frames


VAIL SEG frames are perfect for floor standing, wall mounted and hanging displays. The frames come single-sided and double-sided in 5 different profiles (frame thicknesses): 40mm / 1.57in, 60mm / 2.36in, 80mm / 3.15in, 100mm / 3.94in and 120mm / 4.72in. Custom graphics are printed using the latest dye-sublimation printing technology on stretch fabric or using UV curing on special 7oz backlit fabric. Below is a quick guide to choosing the right VAIL frame.

VAIL 40D and 60D Profiles (Ideal for Hanging)

VAIL frames with profiles 40D and 60D offer double-sided extrusions with profile width of 40mm / 1.57in and 60mm / 2.36in, respectively. Given their lightweight thin double-sided profiles, these frames are ideal for hanging displays. These displays can be used free-standing, however, this is not recommended for widths greater than 5ft. We advise clients look to 100D and 120D profiles for floor standing displays to ensure maximum stability. The frames can also be used for wall mounting, however, 40S and 60S frames are a better fit for this application. This extrusion is not compatible with lights (cannot be backlit).

VAIL 40S and 60S Profiles (Ideal for Wall Mounting)

VAIL-40S and 60S frames offer a single-sided extrusion with a profile width of 40mm / 1.57in and 60mm / 2.36in, respectively. Given their thin profile and single-sided frames, these displays are ideal for wall mounting applications. These frames can also be hung overhead, however, the backside of the frame will remain uncovered. VAIL 40D and 60D profiles are a better choice for hanging. This extrusion is not compatible with lights (cannot be backlit) and we do not recommend using them free-standing.

These frames are ideal for trade show backwalls, retail displays, expo backdrops, in offices, showrooms and more! VAIL 100D profiles can be wall mounted or hung overhead, however, the 40 and 60 profiles are a better choice for these applications given their thinner profiles and lighter weight.

VAIL-120D is a double-sided extrusion with a profile width of 120mm / 4.72in. These frames can be backlit with edge-lights (standard) or ladder lights upon request.
