At Laser Sharp, we offer you two exceptional choices for outdoor hanging banners, a 13 oz vinyl and a finer, heavier 16 oz.
13 oz scrim
Standard fare for outdoor banners, this material has threads, called scrim, woven through the vinyl to strengthen it. Scrim is ideal for outdoor advertising as it withstands tough weather conditions. It is appropriate for both indoor and outdoor use.
16 oz no curl
This material is smoother than scrim and better suited for indoor use. It is resistant to curling at the edges, so hangs nicely in place.
This material is fine for short term outdoor use, but is generally intended for indoor use where viewing is more close up.
Custom banner size
Your custom vinyl banner can be printed in any size, to the fraction of an inch. The maximum width for custom sizes is 50″, and the length is open.
Prices for banner printing are based on square foot, so if you order more than one banner, increasing the square foot of your order, your price will be discounted.
Hanging your banner: grommets or pole pockets
As an option, nickel grommets are fastened to your banner. The grommet is a metal ring that prevents your zip tie or rope from tearing the banner.
Alternatively, you can request that a pocket be added to the top of the banner. The pocket accommodates a pole or rope that can be secured on each end to give a rigid support across the banner. A similar pocket can be added at the bottom if desired.
A pocket is ideal if you are printing a banner to be carried in a parade or suspending it on a specially designed banner stand.
Adding a hem to the edge of the printed vinyl banner
To strengthen the banner edges and to prevent slight fraying that may occur on scrim vinyl, a hem can be added.
We use a double sided adhesive tape to weld a .75″ strip along each edge before grommets are inserted.
Frequently Asked Questions
The maximum print area for height is 50". The length is open, but if you want a banner of more than 20 feet in length printed, please contact us with details before placing your order.
Our vinyl banners are tough, but if you intend to hang it outside for a longer term, a hem can help to prevent any tearing or fraying on the edges. The hem is simple: the edge of the banner is folded over and secured with double sided tape. Grommets are punched through the hem.
Vinyl banner printing is priced per square foot. Each square foot you add to your order costs a bit less than the one before, The discount works if you order a single banner, and is even better if you order more than one.
What does this mean to you?
With many printers, a discount may be offered when you reach a price break point, so the price is the same for the first 5 banners, for example, then lower for the next 5 and so on. Here, a 10 square foot banner (2' x 5') is about $57. If you order 2 vinyl banners that size, you do not pay $114, you pay for 20 square feet - $101 - and so on.
Generally, the 13 ounce scrim is best for outdoors. Scrim vinyl is reinforced with a grid of threads running vertically and horizontally through the material. These threads add strength to the banner and help to prevent tearing.
