Many of our customers don't know how to choose banner materials. They often just tell me they need banners, but know nothing about the materials. Some customers complain after receiving their banners, asking why they aren't waterproof or why they have creases. What causes these questions? The main reason is that they don't know which banner materials are suitable for which scenarios. Today, through the video above and this article, we'll teach you how to choose banner materials.
1.First up is Vinyl banner. The advantage of this material is that it is waterproof, making it suitable for outdoor use. Because it offers better UV protection, it is ideal for long-term outdoor use. If you plan to advertise your brand outdoors, this material is the perfect choice.
We typically offer bottles in 8oz, 10oz, 13oz, 15oz...23oz sizes. Different weights have different usage times and therefore different prices.
For example, 8oz can only be used outdoors for 8 months, 10oz might be 1 year, 15oz can be used for 2-3 years... 18oz for 3-5 years, 21oz for 5 years or more. If you want to use it for a longer time, thicker material + UV printing is the best choice.
Some clients even require fire-resistant vinyl banners, because many banners need to be hung on the exterior walls of buildings, and fire resistance is a very important indicator.
Please let me know if you have any further questions about the Vinyl banner.
2.We also have many materials for fabric banners.For example:
polyester,cotton ,canvas ,Nylon,oxford fabric ... but most people like the polyester material as the banners .
These materials are mainly used indoors, or for short-term events.
Next, I can introduce some banner materials and their application scenarios.
（1）fabric mesh banner，Some customers also call it fence cover or scrim banner.These banners are generally used for sporting events These banners are typically used for sporting events (barricades, fences, walls).We provide these banners for some very famous sporting events such as the Olympics, marathons, triathlons, the Super Bowl, and Formula 1.
（2）230gsm fabric banner ，This material is also very popular.This material is also very popular, mainly used to make very sturdy stage banners. We have made these banners for many concerts to decorate the stage and surrounding environment. This material is very sturdy, lightweight, and easy to transport. It is also opaque when hung up, which feels great.
In summary, vinyl banners are suitable for outdoor environments and long-term use. Although shipping costs are higher, the overall cost of use is lower. Fabric banners are more suitable for indoor and outdoor sports use for short periods, with an outdoor lifespan of around 15 days. They offer vibrant colors, are made of environmentally friendly and biodegradable materials, are cheaper to transport, and are easier to install. Do you understand?
