Abstract: A lightweight multilayer substrate comprising a thermally compressed nonwoven core having a first surface and an opposed second surface, at least one top layer adhered to the first surface of the thermally compressed nonwoven core, and, optionally, at least one bottom layer adhered to the opposed second surface of the thermally compressed nonwoven core. The lightweight multilayer substrate has a specific modulus greater than 1200 (MPa/(g/cm3)) and a thermal expansion coefficient of less than 3×10?5 m/(m*° C.). The lightweight multilayer substrate is thermally balanced between 25° C. and 70° C.

Abstract: A system for the framing and tensioning of flexible graphic and advertising displays on vehicles such as trucks, trailers and buildings including a low profile framing system comprised of a custom engineered single rail, designed for ease of installation, minimal impact on the surface of the vehicle, and optimal display of the graphics and advertisements. The top and front rails are attached to the vehicle while the rear and bottom rails are independent of the vehicle to effectuate tensioning and replacement of graphics and advertisements. Tensioning is accomplished through the use of a custom tensioning assembly consisting of a latch, an anchor plate, and a latch hook. The custom tensioning assembly is easily adjusted and firmly secured by the locking mechanism. Corner pieces placed over the four corners of the framing system prevent the introduction of air under the flexible display, thereby ensuring the integrity of the design.
