Customer Banners What Are Fabric Banners? Fabric banners are a premium, lightweight alternative to traditional PVC banners, designed to deliver high-impact visual displays with a softer, more professional finish. Commonly used for exhibitions, retail environments, events, and backdrops, they provide a modern solution for businesses looking to present their brand with clarity and style. Printed using advanced dye-sublimation technology, the ink is infused directly into the fabric rather than sitting on the surface. This produces vibrant, long-lasting colour, sharp detail, and a smooth finish that won’t crack or peel over time. Unlike heavier materials, fabric banners are easy to transport, quick to install, and simple to store, making them ideal for businesses that need a reusable and versatile display solution. Key benefits: Lightweight and easy to transport High-definition print with vibrant colour Smooth, premium fabric finish Crease-resistant and easy to store Reusable for multiple events and campaigns Fabric Options Explained Choose the right fabric depending on how and where your banner will be used.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) What material are your fabric banners made from? Our banners are made from high-quality, recycled polyester fabric. These materials are specifically chosen for their durability, print clarity, and environmental benefits, giving you a professional finish while supporting more sustainable production. What’s the difference between standard and HD Eco fabric? The main difference comes down to weight, feel, and performance: Standard fabric (110gsm) is lightweight and designed to provide an affordable outdoor display. HD Eco fabric (220gsm) is thicker, more structured, and offers greater opacity, making it perfect for backdrops, exhibitions, and premium indoor use. If you need something that offers great value, go standard. If you want a solid, high-definition display, HD Eco is the better choice. Are your fabric banners suitable for outdoor use? Yes. Both fabrics are designed to perform outdoors, with good resistance to weather conditions and UV exposure. Standard fabric works particularly well outdoors as it allows airflow, reducing strain on the material, while HD Eco is better suited to more sheltered or short-term outdoor use due to its heavier weight. Will the print show through to the other side? With standard fabric, some show-through is expected due to the lightweight nature of the material, which actually helps visibility from both sides. HD Eco fabric offers higher opacity, so show-through is significantly reduced, making it a better option where a more solid, one-sided display is required. Are your banner fabrics eco-friendly? Yes. Our banner fabrics are made from recycled polyester, helping to reduce waste and reliance on virgin materials. We also aim to minimise environmental impact through efficient production processes and responsible material sourcing. Do your banners meet fire safety standards? Yes. Our fabrics meet recognised fire safety standards, including DIN and EN certifications, making them suitable for use in exhibitions, indoor venues, and public spaces where compliance is required. How should I care for and maintain my banner? To keep your fabric banner looking its best and maximise its lifespan, a little care goes a long way: Outdoor Use:While designed for outdoor use, we recommend taking banners down during extreme weather conditions (strong winds, storms) to extend their lifespan. Cleaning:Gently wipe down with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the print and fabric. Drying:Always allow your banner to fully air dry before packing away to prevent mould or odours. Storage:Store in a dry, cool place. Where possible, keep banners loosely rolled rather than folded to avoid creases. Handling:Avoid dragging banners across rough surfaces or sharp edges, which can cause unnecessary wear or tearing.
