Abstract:
A method of forming a display element using a multi-stage injection moulding process, comprising the steps of:placing a layer of woven fabric having a design formed thereon into a first mould having a shape for producing a first panel; injecting plastics material into the first mould thereby bonding a first layer of light transmissible plastics material to the layer of woven fabric in a first injection moulding process to create the first panel; placing the first panel into a second mould having a shape for producing a second panel having a size different than that of the first panel; and injecting plastics material into the second mould thereby bonding a second layer of light transmissible plastics material to the first layer and the layer of woven fabric in a second injection moulding process to sandwich the layer of woven fabric to create the second panel.
