Berger Textiles, supplier of textiles for wide format digital printing, interior decor and apparel, will exhibit an array of products at FESPA Global Print Expo 2025 (Berlin, 6th-9th May 2025), including the European debut of its Ghost, Shade and Barrier soft signage products. Demonstrating its commitment to sustainability as expressed in its we.respect sustainability manifesto, Berger Textiles has also bolstered its EVO range of soft signage products made from recycled materials by making some of its current portfolio only available in the range.
Ghost is a 100% PES white back blockout fabric, specifically engineered for simple and effective backing of freestanding backlit displays such as backdrops, frames, and pop-ups. With the growing use of such systems, Ghost offers an affordable and convenient solution for installers.
Shade is an opaque, PVC-free banner solution with an acrylic coating for durability and easy cleaning. Shade also features a grey backing making it a versatile choice for creating smart roll-up systems and banners.
Barrier is a 100% polyester textile with a uniform distribution of holes for excellent ventilation, while providing a durable, environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional PVC mesh products. It is strong and tear-resistant yet soft and foldable, perfect for building and fence mesh projects.
The
EVO range offers a complete set of textiles produced using GRS-certified* recycled yarn, without compromising on performance. Berger Textiles recently reaffirmed its commitment to sustainability with the announcement that its Aero, Expandable, and Revolution products are now only available in their EVO versions, delivering the same performance at the same price as their non-recycled equivalents. The full EVO range comprises the following products:
•
Lumina Evolution / Samba Evolution: for applications in backlit frames
•
Mozaik Evolution: an outstanding black-back textile perfect for exhibitions
•
Revolution Evolution / Display Evolution: display textiles for front-lit applications
•
Matisse Evolution: for artistic print applications
•
Aero Evolution / Wind Evolution: for high-performance flags
•
Expandable Evolution: for applications requiring stretch
•
Fiber Evolution[1]: a non-woven banner material, suitable for promotional outdoor use
The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is a globally recognised voluntary product standard for tracking and verifying the content and chain of custody of recycled materials in a final product. The GRS includes a 50% minimum recycled content percentage and additional social and environmental requirements related to processing and chemical use.
Alessandro Lanfranconi, CEO of Berger Textiles, says: “At last year’s FESPA Global Print Expo, we launched our EVO range. Since then, we have embarked on a number of projects that reaffirm our commitment to deliver more sustainable offerings to our customers around the world. This year’s FESPA Global Print Expo in Berlin, gives us the ideal opportunity to reconnect with our customers and industry partners, to discuss how we can implement more sustainable solutions into their businesses, as well as extend those benefits to their customers, in turn.
Our announcements at this year’s show – including that some of our textiles will now only be available in their EVO versions, as well as the benefits of recently launched Ghost and Shade products, are a further testament to this commitment.
Ghost and Shade combine the highest levels of quality and versatility to meet our customers’ growing soft signage requirements, whether that’s usage flexibility, or in the case of Ghost, the ability to complement rather than replace existing materials for backlit displays, improving circularity and reducing waste.”
In addition to its Soft Signage range, Berger Textiles will also showcase its functional architectural Home & Fashion ranges at the show, all presented through its unique simple and visual periodic table catalogue, which clusters products according to their intended applications.
