  • Vinyl on Banner info needed?

    Posted by Daniel Evans on 2 March 2011 at 20:43

    Hey guys

    My customer is after a very long banner, i’ve supplied him with small printed banners in the past but now he wants one maybe 2 very long banners with vinyl on top. I’ve never put vinyl on banners before so my questions are this:

    What type of banner material should i use, pvc?

    Where is the best place to get blanks made up, it must be black?

    Will vinyl stick and stay on for a long lengh of time?

    p.s. the vinyl i use is oracal 751 if that helps at all.

    Thanks

    In my last job some customers wanted vinyl date panels on there banners, PVC is ok to put vinyl on and it stays put for a very long time in my experience.

    I think you can buy in black banners on a roll with eyelets already on, use banner vinyl on it and it will last a long time.

    I think Grafityp sell it. Think it’s called banana banner or something.

    or there is a company that will make up the blanks for you, think they are called Trounce.

    http://www.bannerbox.co.uk or trounce for black banners,

    Grafityp banner vinyl is great and well priced.
    You can get away with std vinyl if specific colour is required as banner vinyls are very limited in colours.
