FAQs
Can I use this for video production?
Yes, its non-reflective matte finish makes it excellent for studio video work.
How do I mount this roll?
You need a wall-mounted or freestanding background support system that can accommodate a core diameter compatible with Colorama rolls.
Is the paper fire retardant?
Colorama papers are designed for studio use, but please check the specific product safety sheet if you intend to use it in public exhibitions or theatrical sets.
Can the paper be recycled?
Yes, the paper material is recyclable, though you should remove any tape or debris before disposal.
Does it come with a stand?
No, the product is the paper roll only. A support system must be purchased separately.
How much does a full roll weigh?
Due to the length of 25m and the density of the paper, it is heavy and recommended to be handled by two people during initial mounting.
Troubleshooting
Paper sagging in the middle
Ensure the crossbar system is fully locked and reinforced, or add a center support brace.
Visible footprints on the sweep
Use a clear acrylic or plexiglass sheet over the floor area if models must walk on the paper.
Edges curling
Use gaffer tape on the underside of the paper to weight it down or secure it to the floor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the roll weighs significantly, it is incompatible with lightweight portable stands. Use a sturdy, heavy-duty backdrop crossbar system designed for 2.72m widths to prevent sagging. To maintain the paper, always store rolls upright or horizontally in a clean, dry location. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading. If a section of the paper becomes scuffed or torn during a shoot, simply unroll more from the spool and trim the damaged area with a sharp blade or paper cutter to refresh your backdrop surface.
