Printing of the banners:

The printing methods of Vinyl Banners depend on the type of the banner. A Vinyl Banner based on its type can have a lifetime of 3 or 5 years. The printing techniques are as follows:

1.      Digitally printed banners:

Ropes, clips, bungee cords or other items can be attached to the banner by passing them through the grommets. This is done by increasing the aid for fixing the banners.

3.      Pole Pockets:

Vinyl Banners have another finishing named as pole pockets. Usually, they are placed at the top or at the bottom of the banners. A loop is formed by the same material as the banner which is taken continuously from it. The loop is attached at its place by high-frequency weld, stitching or banner hem tape. Sometimes, these are used in a combination to make the pole pockets more strongly attached. Large banners usually possess their pole pockets at the bottom for holding a bulky bar held on one side for creating enough tension in the display and for stopping it from bulging up.

Applications of Vinyl Banners:

Usually, any kind of banner is used for promotional reasons. Vinyl Banners are no exception. As vinyl itself is a flexible material alongside with being portable; they can be seen almost everywhere.
