Among advertisers and event promoters
banner screen-printing is a popular printing method because it produces
large-scale graphic displays. Banners are an attention grabbing way that
can be used to announce product rollouts, special events, or promotions,
which can be installed in a number of ways such as free-hanging
installations, wall graphics, and as backdrops.
There are two main forms of materials and processes of banner
screen-printing available to those looking to produce large, colorful
graphics. The first type are vinyl banners, which are very durable, and
if well cared for will last several years. These banners are generally
printed on thick, single color vinyl. Print shops usually only offer
one-color printing, however it has become increasingly popular to offer
photographic printing as well. This is usually at an increased price.
The second type is PVC mesh, which is also of high quality. The
perforated mesh permits air to pass through, increasing its durability
for outdoor applications like scaffolding screening and building-side
advertisements. PVC mesh is also waterproof and flame retardant, which
has, lend to its increased popularity as theater backdrop material.
Banner screen-printing can create graphics in strips as wide as 3.2
meters that can be positioned to create graphic of any size. Graphics
can also be used to create wall murals or ceiling graphics by printing
on thinner vinyl. The technology used for banner screen-printing is
extremely similar to that used in vehicle wrapping that also requires
large-formatted graphics printed on thin sheets of vinyl.
