Banner
A banner is a wide-format printed visual used for outdoor or indoor advertising — printed on PVC, mesh, or textile materials.
Detail
PVC frontlit banner material has a solid printed face. Mesh has openings that allow some air through, while a suitable backlit material is designed to transmit illumination.
Choose the substrate, ink, finishing and fixing as one specification for the location. Material choice alone does not establish weather resistance or the safety of a facade or fence installation.
