We offer many types of banners including:

  • Safety banners

  • Trade show banners

  • Construction fence banners

  • Wayfinding banners

  • Retractable banners

  • Banner stands

  • Wedding invitations

  • Roll up Displays

  • Repeat banners

But first, it’s essential to consider the type of materials you’ll use for your custom banners such as construction fence banners

Types of Banner Materials

Internal scrim

This is a weave made from a heavy fabric put on the inner layer of your banner. When the internal scrim is added to your banner, the material is reinforced. This adds to the banner’s stability and longevity. This is especially important for a construction banner as they tend to take a lot of abuse. The internal scrim for vinyl banners is a plastic-based cording. A polyurethane-based layer is then used to cover the scrim to let you print your designs and custom artwork.

Weather resistance

Mesh and vinyl banners are the best options for weather resistance, and they also maintain their durability for longer periods. Best of all, these materials won’t limit your design or quality. These types of banners are best when used outside because they can withstand different and intense weather conditions for many years.

On the other hand, no fabric banners are less weather-resistant. They’re made of light polyester, which means they’re not as good for prolonged sunlight or water contact. Exposure to sunlight will cause your fabric banner to fade over time. That said, while they’re more suitable for indoor use, fabric banners will last outside for at least a year.

Mesh pattern

We use a mesh pattern in mesh banners to:

  • Add tensile strength – when wind load is an issue

  • Offer the fabric a transparent nature so that the wind passes through

  • Enhance overall durability

We use intersecting layers of vinyl to make the mesh pattern. We then press the layers together and form a lightweight and sturdy substrate. This makes our mesh banners durable even though they aren’t made using the woven approach like fabric and vinyl banners. Remember, a banner is closely related to the sail on a sailboat

The mesh patterns allow wind to flow through the material easily without damaging the banner. This makes it the best banner material to use for your outside banner, especially in windy areas.

Weft inserted knit

This is a more robust fabric than the internal scrim used to create the foundation for banners. It prevents the banner from punctures and tears. Some custom banner makers substitute the weft inserted knit for the internal scrim. Weft knits strengthen the banner core and insert the weft between the polyester fabric layers. This also forms a smooth surface finish for the banner. However, we no longer make weft-inserted knits as other better options are available.

Material

Vinyl and polyester might be made from plastic, but they’re both different materials. You may not be able to tell the difference by looking at the materials, but if you look through a microscope, it’s there.

  • Polymers and esters make polyester. It’s then used as a fabric and we do not make any custom banners with polyester.

  • Ethylene and Chlorine make vinyl. These banners use polyester scrim with vinyl layers on the side.

Both mesh banners and vinyl are water-resistant and excellent for outside use since they only come from durable vinyl material. Fabric banners are for indoor use because they’re made from a lighter, more elegant polyester material.

The primary materials used in banners include:

  • Vinyl

  • Fabric or Canvas

  • Mesh

Each of these materials will affect the functionality of your banners in different ways.

The functionality of the material

How does the material affect the structure of your custom banner? These durable and versatile signage options will affect your banners through their:

  • Internal scrim

  • Mesh pattern

  • Material

  • Weft inserted knit

  • Weather resistance

  • Weight and thickness

Weight and thickness

The following three banner types use a specific polyester variation, but the thickness and structure of each material are different.

  • Fabric banners are lightweight 9 oz polyester material

  • Vinyl banners are heavier with 13 oz. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material

  • Mesh banners are even heavier with 10 oz. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material

The heavier the material, the more durable and resistant it is to wear and tear from age, sunlight, and weather. In the case of construction banners, it may protect against physical damage.

How the banner material affects aesthetics

The choice of material for your banner will also affect your design options. For example, canvas banners are best suited for upscale environments since they offer plenty of lighting.

This is because they’re made from white woven polyester fabric that has a non-reflective finish. You’ll have more options if you select large banner printing. Say you choose a white matte vinyl banner with a matte finish, the high-grade PVC coating, and front-lit vinyl will promote excellent, attention-grabbing designs you’ll love. If you want a rugged design, you can opt for the white mesh vinyl banners. Add some eco-friendly nature to your banners by selecting the biodegradable vinyl banners. Nevertheless, any material you choose will look fantastic in your designs. Now that you have an idea about what constitutes banner materials, here are the characteristics of the vinyl, mesh, and fabric banners:

Fabric Banners

  • These banners are designed to give you aesthetics and functionality.

  • They offer impressive, beautiful, and quality images.

  • The functionality of the fabric banner comes from its lightweight polyester

You can, therefore, transport and display fabric banners at any event with much ease. The material also makes your decorating work simple. The material also makes your decorating work simple.

Vinyl Banners

These are our most popular banners. We use vinyl banners because they’re the best for:

  • Durability

  • Outdoor use

  • Promoting products

  • Events

  • Conferences

  • Corporate gatherings

  • Parties

You can select between 13 oz. and 15 oz. vinyl banner sizes. Your material will be more durable when it is more substantial.

Select the 13 oz. if you want to display your custom banner every day

  • Select the 15 oz. if you want a banner for a heavy-duty display such as a construction site

  • Incorporating large and bright images will give you a perfect outcome with vinyl material. Vinyl is ideal for large banners because it offers more flexibility in terms of resolution. We also use certain types of vinyl to create banners for different occasions.

  • If you want a banner hanging inside your building, you can choose glossy banners, but glossy banners aren’t recommended since they attract glare. Matte banners are perfect for outside spaces since they aren’t affected by natural light. Vinyl is also a reusable and portable material. This means you can use your banner on several occasions, and it’s easy to transport it to different locations. Another advantage of using vinyl banners is they’re available in different sizes. Regardless of the size of your banner space, you’ll have a banner for perfectly fits its intended location. Mounting vinyl banners is also easy. These banners can be set up using grommets or pockets.

    • The grommets allow the use of ropes

    • The pockets enable poles to slip through

  • When using ropes to mount a vinyl banner, it’s always wise to consider the space the banner will occupy.

Mesh Banners

  • We use mesh banners with low weight in windy situations. This is because mesh banners allow light and wind to pass through. They also give a muted or lighter effect on the color and graphics of your banner design. Mesh banners give a semi-transparent effect making them perfect for outdoor use. They also boost wind resistance. Use the 10oz. PVC mesh if you want the best tensile strength on your custom banner. This material will also preserve the lightweight nature of the mesh material. We included hemmed edges on our mesh banners to ensure they don’t tear during mounting.

  • For maximum wind resistance, it’s ideal to have mesh banners on chain-link fences. This location will emphasize the nature of the mesh pattern. As a result, you can display your banner without blocking the background or the covering. Grommets make the mounting process easy since they attach the banner to the fence at different points through zip ties or ropes. This also means that space considerations are not necessary as they’ll fit perfectly and cover the location they’re mounted at without any extra space.

Banners for Indoor or Outdoor Use

  • Vinyl banners are water and UV-resistant. This makes them perfect for outdoor use for long periods without worrying about wear and tear. You can also hang them anywhere.

  • We don’t recommend canvas and fabric banners for use outdoors because they don’t hold up to the weather.

  • If you’re located in a place where you experience harsh, rainy, and windy weather, you should consider customizing a mesh vinyl banner. It’ll perform better in those conditions.

  • If you need a custom banner to last for an extended period, avoid using biodegradable vinyl materials. They’ll break down within three to five years. This is good for the environment but not necessarily great for long-term situations.

Selecting the best material for your custom banner will depend significantly on where you place it and how you want to use it. For instance, white matte vinyl and canvas materials are perfect for cold weather but not for rain and wind. By choosing the best banner for your situation, you’ll get a long-lasting product that may outlast the message printed on it.

The longer your banner exists, the higher your return on investment. If you still don’t know what material will be best for your custom banner, we’ll help you make an informed choice. Create your custom banner by consulting with one of our design experts who have experience not only with banners, but signs, wall murals, and more. We use durable, high-quality materials to make your colors pop and last for years.
