FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I use my banners outdoors?

Yes, of course. All of our banners our water- and weather-proof, AND depending on wind conditions, will last several years outdoors.

Why do you hem your banners?

For strength. Our standard banner comes with a 1-inch hem all the way around. This gives a perimeter to set the grommets into and allows you to pull and stretch the banner for a better, stronger installation.

Why do you weld your hems?

Because it’s the strongest, most reliable system – sewing adds perforation, and adhesive tape always comes undone in the heat of the sun.  Sewing is by far the strongest method.

Why do some banners smell when I take them out of the box?

You must be buying solvent ink banners.  This a big no-no. Solvent is bad for the environment, and bad for the working environment. Yes, the solvent inks are cheaper but they make banners that “outgas” solvents for weeks. This will be leaking into your business or home. We never use solvent inks in our printing.
