About Vinyl Banners
Vinyl Banners are printed on high quality 13 oz scrim vinyl. The banner material is rated for indoor and outdoor use. Vinyl Banners are digitally printed and can be up to 16 feet by 50 feet without seams.

Additional finishing options include pole pockets, reinforced hems and reinforced corners. You can order full color banners or text only banners. Full color banners can have  unlimited text, clip art, backgrounds and photographs. Text only banners have a white background with colored text and is our lowest cost banner option.

No curl vinyl banners are digitally printed in full color on a 14 oz vinyl banner material. This material is commonly used for high end displays and banner stands. The no curl banners can only be cut to size. They do not include hems, but you can add grommets to the banner.

About Mesh Banners
Mesh Banners are digitally printed in full color on 10 oz scrim vinyl. The material has criss-crossed fibers that allows some air to go through the material. You can see through the material to some extent, but you can still see the printed graphics. This material is used outdoors in windy locations instead of putting wind slits in vinyl banners. Mesh banners can be up to 16 feet by 50 feet without seams. Standard finishing is heat welded hems and grommets. Additional finishing options are pole pockets, reinforced hems and reinforced corners.
