Grab attention in any environment

When you've only got seconds to capture someone's attention, our blockout banners deliver maximum impact. These specially designed banners feature a grey back that prevents light from passing through, ensuring your graphics remain vibrant and crystal clear even in direct sunlight or bright indoor spaces. Whether you're branding stands at trade shows or adding signage to windows and construction fencing, your message will stand out with sharp, undistorted visuals that grab attention.

Versatile options for any need

Choose from 7 standard sizes or request a custom fit. Our banners come in two durable, weather-resistant materials that stand up to rain, wind and UV rays. They’re built for both indoor and outdoor use, making them ideal for everything from shopfronts and fences to trade shows and construction sites.

Easy to install and built to last

Creating your perfect banner couldn't be simpler. Select your size, choose your material and decide on finishing options like reinforced edges for extra durability and metal eyelets for hassle-free hanging. We'll take care of the printing with vibrant, full-colour graphics that make your design pop. Once your banner arrives, it's ready to install using rope or zip ties — perfect for mounting on fences, walls, scaffolding, or suspended from ceilings.

Vistaprint offers Blockout Banners design templates in assorted styles.

I love my banner and it was sent really quickly! I find the website very easy to use and it covers everything I might want or need. Good delivery options and reasonable pricing

Fair product at reasonable price

To be fair the blockout banner didn’t cost much but it does seem quite flimsy and cheap. I use vistaprint for a lot of my printing but this doesn’t quite live up to the usual quality. I will be happy if it lasts three years outside but we will have to see.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
We are sorry to hear that the blockout banner feels flimsy and cheap and does not quite live up to the usual quality you experience with your Vistaprint orders. We see that the Premium Blockout 360 gsm banner was ordered, which features a light-blocking grey back, a smooth matte finish, and a flame retardant B1 certified material designed to last up to 3 years outdoors. You are welcome to reach out to us if you experience any issues or if the banner does not hold up as expected. If your request is urgent and you need an immediate solution, please reach out to our Customer Support team via: https://www.vistaprint.co.uk/customer-care/help-centre/.

I had a banner printed recently and I couldn't be happier! the quality is excellent and it was so easy to upload my design and get everything the correct size and resolution. All the colours are accurate and the finished product looks great!

Fabulous as always

Vistaprint isn't necessarily the cheapest option for custom print, but the quality is consistent and always a top job! I'd rather pay the money, and know that its not wasted, and that there will be a super quick turnaround from order to delivery

Frequently asked questions

Blockout banners have a grey back that completely blocks light from passing through. This makes them opaque and prevents any transparency issues, ensuring your graphics remain clear and vibrant even in bright sunlight or strong lighting conditions.

We offer 7 standard sizes to choose from, plus custom sizing options to fit your specific needs. Whether you need a small banner for an indoor display or a large-format banner for maximum visibility, we've got you covered.

Our banners can be ordered with metal eyelets that make hanging quick and easy using rope or zip ties. The reinforced edge option provides extra durability at the attachment points for long-lasting performance.

No, but they are highly recommended for a secure, reinforced hold when hanging your banner.

The number of eyelets varies by banner size:

  • 25 x 50 cm: 4 eyelets
  • 50 x 100 cm: 6 eyelets
  • 50 x 150 cm: 6 eyelets
  • 50 x 200 cm: 8 eyelets
  • 100 x 100 cm: 8 eyelets
  • 100 x 200 cm: 10 eyelets
  • 100 x 300 cm: 14 eyelets

If you order a custom-sized banner, the number of eyelets needed will be automatically added.

Creases should smooth out over time. But if you need to speed up the process, place your PVC-free banner under a heavy, flat object to help flatten out creases. To avoid creasing while storing, we advise you don’t place anything on top of the banner.

Our PVC-Free banners are fire-resistant and are B1, Din 4102 certified (European certification).
