Custom Vinyl & Fabric Banners

What's the difference between vinyl, fabric, and mesh banners?

Vinyl banners (13oz) are our most popular - weather-resistant, durable, and cost-effective at $2.50/sq ft. Fabric banners ($4.00/sq ft) offer a premium look for indoor use with no glare. Mesh banners ($3.00/sq ft) are perfect for windy locations as air passes through the material, reducing wind load.

What file format should I provide for my banner design?

We accept PDF, AI, EPS, PNG, and JPG files. For best quality, provide vector files (AI/EPS) or high-resolution images at 150 DPI minimum. Our design team can help optimize your artwork or create new designs if needed. Always include bleed area for edge-to-edge printing.

How long do outdoor banners last?

Our vinyl banners are rated for 3+ years of outdoor use with UV-resistant inks and weather-resistant materials. Actual lifespan depends on weather conditions and installation quality. Proper finishing options like reinforced corners and appropriate mounting hardware extend banner life significantly.

What finishing options do you offer?

We include grommets every 2 feet for standard hanging. Add-on options include pole pockets (+$10), wind slits (+$5), reinforced corners (+$8), and velcro strips (+$15). Each option serves specific installation needs - we'll recommend the best finishing based on your intended use.

Can you print banners larger than 16 feet wide?

Our maximum seamless width is 16 feet, but we can create larger banners by seaming sections together. For very large displays, we'll plan seam placement strategically to maintain visual impact. We can also recommend alternative solutions like multiple coordinated banners.

Do you provide design services for banners?

Yes! Our design team can create professional banner layouts, improve existing designs, or work from your sketches and ideas. We understand effective banner design principles - bold fonts, high contrast, clear messaging that's readable from a distance. Basic design help is often included with your order.

How do I determine the right banner size for my needs?

Consider viewing distance and location constraints. For roadside visibility, larger is better - 4x8 ft minimum. Indoor trade shows work well with 3x6 ft. Fence banners depend on fence height. We can help you calculate the optimal size based on your specific application and budget.

What's your typical turnaround time for custom banners?

Most banners are completed within 3-5 business days after artwork approval. Rush service (24-48 hours) is available for urgent needs with additional fees. Complex designs or large quantities may require extra time. We ship nationwide or offer local pickup in Ocala for faster delivery.
