Vinyl banners by Artsign Design

When ordering your banners be sure to discuss grommets and banner reinforcement tape.

Banners may be set flat against a surface, free-hanging or standing upright and presented both indoors and outdoors. Many options are available for vinyl banners. Here are common methods of displaying your banners.

Banner stands

Banner stands have become very popular and price effective for use in offices, trade shows, special events and other applications where banners are frequently moved. Making full use of the banner’s light weight, strength and roll-ability, banner stands can be stored between uses in small spaces and are light-weight for travel. Banner stands allow for easy, attractive and inexpensive ways to transport and display large graphics. There is a huge array of styles, but they generally fall into two categories.

Retractable Cartridge Banner Stands

Retractable cartridge banner stands have the banner rolled up inside the base using a spring system similar to roll-up window blinds.

Modular banner stands

Modular banner stands have the banner as a separate piece that attaches manually to a free-standing banner stand base.

Hanging banners using two vertical poles

A common method of hanging a banner is between two vertical poles and stretching the vinyl banner between them. This works best with banners that are not too large. Large banners tend to sag in the middle and tension is required to hang them straight and flat, so this method is usually limited to use in areas where other signage won’t work because of access or mounting issues for the banner frames.
