A Basic Guide To Banner Printing And Display Options

Banner printing and display options

One of the most effective ways to provide indoor or outdoor advertising is through the use of custom designed banners. With today’s selection of different shapes, sizes and materials, both outdoor banners and indoor banners can add that splash of color, that unique image and that boost in marketing that pays real dividends.

It is important to consider several factors when choosing a banner. By selecting the correct material, size and even banner stand there is an increased visibility and focus on the display. Additionally, it will also be critical to choose the best possible printing company for quality images and aesthetics that set your marketing apart from the competition.

Of course, businesses are not the only ones that are interested in advertising or sharing information through the use of custom banners. Sports teams, organizations, charitable groups, agencies and even communities or clubs may all want to have both indoor banners as well as those that are suitable for outdoor events. By choosing a quality material and printer, these outdoor or indoor banners can be used for years, providing readily available marketing and identification for community and sporting events, trade shows, special activities or any other occasion. Banners for events can help to identify your group quickly and easily, and they become an iconic part of any campaign.

Mesh banners are a great addition for outdoors as they are lightweight and will create motion even with a light breeze. However, both mesh and fabric banners are also good choices for indoor display as well. Different colors of mesh or fabric can a add dark or light background to the logo, text or images for high levels of contracts.

They can be printed on one side, or they can be double sided banners. The benefit to double sided is the ability to have the message clearly visible from all angles. Pole banners tend to use to lightweight fabrics and double-sided printing as a highly visible way to send a message. These are typically smaller, rectangular styles of banners that are left up for longer periods of time so they have to be resilient to rain, sun and weather conditions.

Fence wrap banners can be used for background for outdoor events. These are larger sized banners that are typically made of heavy vinyl for outdoor use. They are large enough to really stand out and are ideal for sporting events and special activities.
