Banners and Signs

Create banners and signs you’ll display outdoors in front of your store or indoors at trade shows. Draw attention to your booth with high-quality retractable and vinyl banners. Increase indoor promotions with bulk posters or mounted posters that captivate customers’ attention on the go. You can easily customize the size, select a coating, and print in a durable material that lasts.

This step-by-step guide helps you find and complete the best design for your large format promotions.  

Select a banner or sign that effectively reaches and sells to your market. Want to capture more customers outdoors? Hang up a vinyl banner. High-resolution image ads are best printed on large format posters displayed in areas like bus and train stations. Looking to draw in more clients at niche trade shows or conventions? Create retractable banners and step and repeat banners for engagement.  

Customize your banners and signs with features that distinguishes the details. Select a material and finish that brings out the important aspects of your design. Gloss coating brightens the colors on your design, while matte makes larger text easier to read from afar. 

Print in a material that endures what the banner or sign is exposed to. Outdoor signs such as vinyl banners and yard signs are built to last and withstand the elements. But other displays need to be distinguished with the chosen material. 

• Mounted poster signs for outdoor display are best printed in thick, rigid, and waterproof PVC board. 
• Step and repeat banners are best printed in 13 oz vinyl for outdoor use, but for windier weather the 15 oz. vinyl is recommended. 

The following banners and signs are best displayed indoors: 

• Retractable banners are often seen in conventions, conferences, and trade shows. 
• Large format posters are printed on premium photo paper, which maintains its quality indoors. 
• Bulk posters stand out in community boards or other inside displays. The smaller size options allow you to announce and promote within specific locations.

Add features that will securely display your custom banners or signs.  

Hemming strengthens your banner’s edges. You can complement this with grommets, rings that are fastened on the corners of the banner. Rope is usually placed through the grommets to hang the banner from above. 

Pole pockets give space on the top and bottom of the banner for poles to go through. The poles carry the banner’s weight and prevent it from falling off its display point. You can add pole pockets on opposite sides for banners to hang flat.

What are the essential banners and signs for big events like trade shows? 

Retractable banners are normally displayed in trade show booths. Step and repeat banners can engage clients to take a photo with your logo in the background. 

Where can I place grommets on a banner? 

You can add grommets every 2 feet or on each corner of your banner. 

Can I order a replacement banner without a stand? 

Every retractable banner order comes with a stand and silver aluminum frame.  

You can order a replacement banner only for the step and repeat type. Select “Banner Only” on the online calculator to order without a stand.   

Can I print a design on both sides of a poster? 

Yes, you can print on both sides of the poster signs, bulk posters, and mounted posters. Double-sided posters are recommended for ads that will be seen from both angles.  

What is the recommended poster for outdoor displays? 

Poster signs and mounted posters last as outdoor displays. They’re made of thick, waterproof corrugated plastic that keeps your design looking good as new, no matter what it’s exposed to.  

How can I display my yard sign? 

Add H-shaped stakes to insert into the corrugated plastic yard sign. You can sink the stakes into the ground for easy setup in front of the house or property you’re selling.   

You can also add grommets on top or in every corner to hang it up or place against a wall.
