Fluted Polypropylene

What are the benefits of fluted polypropylene for POS displays?

Fluted polypropylene, such as Triaprint®, offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for eye-catching POS displays. It's lightweight, impact-resistant and fully recyclable, with a smooth surface optimised for digital and screen printing. Its rigidity ensures displays remain stable and professional-looking, whether used indoors or outdoors.

How does corona treatment improve printability on fluted polypropylene?

Corona treatment modifies the surface energy of polypropylene, improving ink adhesion during printing. Products like Biprint® and Triaprint® are corona treated to ensure sharper image quality and better durability, especially when using UV inkjet or screen-printing techniques.

What printing techniques work best on fluted polypropylene?

Rigid sheets made from fluted polypropylene, such as Triaprint® and Biprint® are compatible with UV digital printing, screen printing, and die cutting. These techniques take full advantage of the smooth, corona-treated surfaces, producing vibrant graphics ideal for short-to medium-term POS, signage, and display applications.

What's the difference between fluted polypropylene and foam board?

PP Multiwall, including Correx fluted propylene and Triaprint®, is a rigid, weather-resistant synthetic material ideal for outdoor signage and displays. In contrast, foam board options like Foam-X® or Kapa® offer a lightweight core ideal for indoor use, mounting, and printing. Whilst both are used in visual communication, PP Multiwall excels in durability and moisture resistance, while foam board provides a smoother finish and easier handling for short-term indoor campaigns.
