Banners are important tools of advertisement and banner printing is an important art to maximum the impact of the advertisement. Traditionally, banners were just a piece of canvas with hand made designs using paints. Screen printing facilitated the banner-making process further. With one time investment in the development of screens, these could be produced on a large scale. With the improvement in printing technology and use of different base materials for the prints, the banner-making process has come of age. Nowadays, one of the most popular materials to make banners is vinyl, also called PVC. PVC of different grades and weight are used to make a banner of one's choice. Depending on the duration for which the banner has to be used and also the quality desired, the suitable grade and quality of PVC is used. Vinyl banner is relatively, inexpensive since it is only a hardened form of plastic. At the same time, digital printing on PVC gives the optimum effect. There is less color spreading and dispersion and this gives high quality banner printing. The finishing is usually, of three types: grommet, simming and pocket. Grommet and hem finish is used to tie the banner with ropes. The pole pocket finish is used when the banner is to be fixed in a stand from its edges. To ensure best results, branded digital printers of reputed companies are used and even the inks used are of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) make. The unbranded or the refill inks do not give the same level of quality as the OEMs. The use of digital technology has enabled production on large scale in far lesser time and costs. Nowadays, you can easily get a banner printed within forty-eight hours. This is possible because, the only thing that needs to be done is to feed the design into the computer and make a choice of the size of banner and base material; the printer does everything else. Digital banner printing is usually, charged per square unit (mostly, in terms of foot) of the base material. It is desirable to negotiate the rates with the makers if it is only a text material which is to be printed (with little or no graphic design) or there is the use of only one or two colors. Digital printing enables the use of different resolution levels. The more the resolution, the better is the quality. Smaller ones can use low-resolution prints but for the larger ones, higher resolution is desirable. This factor also affects the price of the banner. You can opt for a low price banner printing service if you have a limited budget. They come cheap at ninety cents per square feet. If the volumes are high, one can ask for a special additional discount. Banners have always attracted people's attention. They are easy to carry in the folded form, easy to make, easy to place and even easy to remove. These can be customized in any size and any design. Further, the PVC based digital banner printing is cheaper and more attractive than wooden or metal stands and other types of POP material. No wonder why banners have never got outdated as a useful advertisement tool.
