Westcott Wrinkle-Resistant Polyester Backdrop (Rich Black, 9 x 20')

It is a thin, light weight (a few lbs., total) but opaque material. It fits in a provided carry bag where bunched up it takes the size a little larger than a basketball.

Maureen, This is actually 9 feet wide by 20 feet long. Thanks for your question!

The textured side is more commonly used.

No, the Westcott 9 x 10' Wrinkle-Resistant Polyester Backdrop (Rich Black) is no listed as being flame retardant. These two are, https://bhpho.to/3XsRMmm .

This is definitely more seamless than the white paper and it is much larger shooting space. You can fit a whole family on this back ground for family portraits. I use a lint roller to pick up and excess dirt or debris. If you need to you can also just toss it in the washing machine for a good cleaning. I usually just make sure my client wipe their feet on some clean towels before they step on this background with shoes. I can't see it being easily torn at all. You'd would have to be really rough or careless with it in order to do that. All in all I love this background.

Packaged, this item is 40cm x 25cm x 46cm and weighs 4kg.

The fabric is a fairly open weave with the fleece projecting through. The more you stretch the fabric, the more the weave opens up. It will block most light, but there will be bleed-through, which you want in a backdrop so you can backlight it or gel it. For a window I would consider doubling it (if you get the long version) or teaming it with a so-called room darkening curtain, some of which can be had reasonably at places like WM.

This product is really good. The texture and the composition is better tan the muslin and is lighter than the muslin. 100% recomended. Besides that this backdrop is very soft and warm thats very good for babies protraits.
