An eye-catching choice

You’ve only got a few seconds to get the attention of passers-by and personalised banners are a great way to make them count. With vivid, full-colour printing and waterproof, fade-resistant materials, our printed banners are hard to miss no matter where you hang them. Make someone’s day with a personalised banner at your next celebration or introduce your new business to the world at an upcoming trade show.

Materials & sizes for any event

Choose from three durable, PVC-free materials. For a lightweight, all-purpose banner, our 310 gsm standard material is a water-resistant classic. If you need to block light completely, choose either the 310 gsm standard blockout for short-term outdoor use or the heavyweight 360 gsm premium blockout, offering maximum durability comparable to vinyl — at a lower weight. For added protection, an anti-scratch varnish can be applied to improve resistance to scratches and weathering. Need to hang it? Add eyelets for easy mounting on fences, walls or ceilings.

Intuitive design process

To start creating your banner, explore our design gallery or upload your own design. Once you’ve found your favourite design, make it yours in our online studio. You can add personalised details and choose the options that work best for you, whether you’re creating indoor or outdoor signs. Then we’ll take care of the rest, professionally printing and shipping your order. Your banner will arrive looking great and ready to get noticed.

What Makes it Better

PVC-Free: PVC-free products are an exciting and increasingly popular alternative to products made from traditional plastics, many of which have significant environmental impact. A product labelled PVC-free is made without polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a synthetic plastic that's hazardous to both humans and the environment. PVC-free materials are typically just as durable as their more well-known counterparts.

Very helpful Customer Service

I had occasion to order what I thought would be a 'straightforward' Black on white banner of 3 capital letters - easily achievable on the website. After multiple attempts I had to admit defeat and rang customer service. The person who answered also struggled to talk me though it and eventually took over and did it themselves - this included about 40 mins over the phone and then them ringing back to send a copy of what they had managed to achieve on my behalf. The outcome was great and the banner was just what we were wanting but I can't say the process was easy. Luckily they said that the set up would be stored so if I needed any more banners of the same type (which we will next year!) hopefully the process will be a lot quicker and easier.

As expected, good quality.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Our standard, standard blockout and premium PVC-free material options are designed for indoor and outdoor use. Our PVC-free material delivers the same weather resistance and durability as traditional vinyl banners – but without the environmental downsides of PVC.

Yes. All our PVC-free materials are B1 certified, meaning they meet high flame-retardant standards for safety.

No, but eyelets are highly recommended for a secure, reinforced hold when you’re using rope, zip ties or a stand. If you’re planning on hanging your banner outside, our 1.27 cm metal eyelets are important for an easy, long-lasting display.

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.

When you choose reinforcement, we’ll use our heat-welding process to add strengthened hemming to the edges of your banner. This reinforcement ensures that the banner will not tear when used in windy conditions.

Our PVC-free polyester is a durable alternative material. It is as weather and water-resistant and durable as vinyl, but designed for cleaner disposal.

When that time comes, there are several options that may be available.

Take it to your local waste centre: For most people, this will be the most commonly available option. When you drop off your banner, it will most likely be incinerated — and this is where the banner material is important. Materials made with PVC release toxins when they burn, which can be harmful to humans and the environment. Our PVC-free material doesn’t have those toxins, so the burn is cleaner. What’s more, that incineration generates energy that can be used elsewhere (this is a process known as waste to energy, or WTE).

Contact a specialist recycling service: Polyester fibres are coated with a film that needs to be taken off before it can be recycled. Specialist recycling services will pick up your banner — for a fee — remove the film and recycle the material.

Upcycle: This durable material can be turned into a variety of objects, including bags, seat covers, placemats and more.

Absolutely. We offer full-bleed and full-colour banner printing on all of our available materials.

Creases should smooth out over time. But if you need to speed up the process, place your vinyl banner under a heavy, flat object, that will help creases come out. To avoid creasing while storing, we recommend you don’t put anything on top of the banner. We also recommend you wash your hands every time you handle the banner.

All materials, except 310 gsm Standard, are fire-retardant. This material is for outdoor use only. This material does not meet indoor fire safety standards (e.g., B1, EN 13501-1) and is not suitable for indoor application.
