Frequently asked questions about Backdrops

Q: What is the material used for backdrops?
A: We use polyester fabric or natural fiber canvas and acrylic paints.

Q: Are the backdrops fire-retardant?
A: Yes. All Creations Fantastic backdrops are treated with fire-retardant.

Q: How are the backdrops painted?
A: The backdrops are hand-painted and airbrushed by a team of artists.

Q: What size do the backdrops come in?
A: Our standard size is 6 meters high (20 feet) x 12.5 meters (41 feet). Many of our backdrops are made with detachable sections that make them versatile at different heights
(See: Sectional Backdrops). Our marquee backdrops are 2.1 meters high (7 feet) x 6 meters wide (20 feet).

Q: How do you store a backdrop?
A: Rolled on a tube or neatly folded and stored in a dry environment.

Q: How long does a backdrop last?
A: Many years if stored correctly.

Q: What is the difference between a Marquee backdrop and a "regular" backdrop?
A: Our larger "regular" backdrops are produced on fabric, either polyester or canvas. These backdrops are hand-painted and are best suited to use indoors. These backdrops are flexible and can be folded for storage and shipping.
Marquee backdrops are simply copies of our painted themes that are digitally printed onto vinyl. Marquee backdrops are smaller than our regular backdrops and are better suited to use in outdoor environments. They are stored and shipped on a tube.

Q: Is the lighting of a backdrop important?
A: Correct lighting of a backdrop is the single most important element in the display of backdrops.

Q: Do you guarantee your backdrops?
A: If you are not satisfied, we most definitely are not satisfied. To succeed in this business we have to excel and try to exceed your expectations. We are dedicated to our craft and client satisfaction is our No 1 goal.
