Océ Pro-Select 7 mil Pop-Up Film with Grayback (PSPOPUP):  a 7 mil, fast dry, universally compatible PET (polyester) film, Océ Pro-Select Pop-Up Film features a no-tear base engineered to withstand repeated rolling for portable display units.  The gray opaque back eliminates image washout caused by light diffusion. This film features a microporous, water-resistant, high gloss photographic topcoat for outstanding “color pop” and instant dry time.

Océ Pro-Select 5 mil PET White Film (PSWHTFLM):  a 5 mil, fast dry, universally compatible PET film, Océ Pro-Select PET White Film has the same breathtaking “color pop” and dry time as Océ Pro-Select Pop-Up Film but is designed for applications where a thinner base is desired and light blocking is not required.  With a premium, high gloss finish and tear-resistant base, this film is ideal for mounted or framed photographic applications.  For added durability, the film may be laminated with either thermal or pressure sensitive laminates.

Océ Pro-Select 5 mil Premium Backlit Film (PSBACKLIT):  a 5 mil, fast dry, universally compatible PET film designed to create even light diffusion and maximum image density.
