The present invention foregoes use of PVC in printable media and instead provides a lightweight recyclable display media comprised generally of a printable coated scrim. The display media includes a base layer or scrim comprised of a polymer material and formed by woven, non-woven, or knit sheet-forming techniques. A non-vinyl body coating is applied to the base layer to add stiffness, body, and printability to the media. The body layer is comprised, at least partially, of urethane, acrylic, or blended urethane/acrylic materials. These materials add body and durability to the base layer without presenting the environmental difficulties attributable to PVC. The non-vinyl body coating may further comprise ink receptive materials or fillers that enhance ink retention in the media. The display media may be printed through a variety of printing techniques known in the art.
