Easel Backs
The invisible hero behind every freestanding display. Engineered for precise viewing angles, reliable adhesion, and the consistency that lets you promise your clients perfection.
What Is an Easel Back?
The Stand Behind the Display
An easel back is a supportive flap attached to the back of a frame, sign, or display to make it stand upright. It's the component your customers never see, but the first thing they notice when it fails.
We manufacture easel backs in single-wing and double-wing configurations with self-stick adhesive for effortless assembly. Every fold line is precision-scored for exact viewing angles.

The Flech Difference
Why Source Easel Backs From Flech?
Precision Score Lines
CNC scoring creates fold lines that bend cleanly at exact angles. No cracking, no variance.
Substrate Expertise
SBS for clean finish, chip for economy, poly for moisture resistance. We recommend the right one.
Adhesive That Holds
Permanent PSA tested to maintain bond strength over time. No peeling, no sliding.
Custom Viewing Angles
Standard or custom angles. We engineer score line placement to deliver the exact angle you need.
