How It Works


1 : Once you have decided upon your marketing message and the installation etc you can then begin to choose the most appropriate banner system with which to display those messages crucial to achieving your marketing goals.


2 : After an initial briefing with one of our design team we can put together a suitable banner system based on your objectives, site and budget. Most of the materials we use are ex stock and available immediately for production, for more bespoke or custom pieces this is subject to availability and delivery.


3 : You then complete the compulsory paperwork in order to commence delivery / installation ( this is a purchase order with soft proof outlining the overall composition ) and pay the deposit.


4 : The plan that is sent on to you is for one final check before production. In most cases this will simply be an emailed PDF, in other cases a digital proof will be prepared. This proof forms the basis upon which your banner is actually designed, produced and installed. This is the last stage to approve or amend the system.


5 : Once the banner system been sent / installed your invoice will follow and should be completed under the terms of the purchase order.

your flexible friend...

...but with a well conceived and installed banner system it’s you that gets all the credit! Of course not all banners are the same and so this could be more complex than you might first think - so where do we begin?

As with most signage the first steps are considering the following points :

  1. how many colours are there in the design?

  2. how big will it be?

  3. how long will it be in place?

  4. how will it be installed?

  5. are there any special factors to consider?

banners

Banners fall into many different categories depending on the answers to the above questions. Here are just a few of the choices to be made :

  1. horizontal / vertical

  2. cut vinyl / digital / both

  3. face fixed / boot-laced / bungeed / suction pods etc

  4. rigging / stand off arms

  5. pocketed ( for replacing messages )

  6. coloured / white / black / flourescent

  7. square cut / pennanted  flag

  8. hems / eyelets / re-inforcing cable ( street span )

If you use banners regularly you might want to consider the addition of a banner frame.

Here’s some facts about our ground fixed ‘A’ frame :

  1. modular construction in 3m lengths between A frames

  2. robust. light materials for long term use

  3. simple to build or dismantle

  4. simple and effective tensioning system

  5. differing viewing angles can be acheived

  6. no special tools required

  7. different leg heights available

  8. easy to add on to prepare for larger banners

As you might expect this merely scratches the surface of the world of banners, each banner can be as individual as the project it’s being used on so why not just contact us about your requirements and we will select the right banner system for you.
