Excellent External Characteristics

The PVC Café Banners are perfect for external applications such as alfresco areas or events. Their versatility makes them an ideal choice for businesses looking to enhance their outdoor spaces. The solid strong finish will perform perfectly for heavy traffic areas, ensuring that they remain vibrant and intact even in bustling environments. This durability is particularly beneficial during crowded events, where banners are subjected to constant movement and potential wear and tear. Additionally, the PVC material can easily be wiped down with a damp sponge to remove any dirt, allowing for effortless maintenance and ensuring that your signage always looks fresh and inviting. This ease of cleaning not only saves time but also guarantees that your promotional messages are consistently clear and engaging for your customers.

Multi Coloured Print

We are not restricted in what we can print. Our in-house printing facility can accommodate most sizes and artwork. This flexibility allows us to cater to a diverse range of projects, whether you’re looking for large banners to make a bold statement or smaller promotional materials that fit perfectly into your marketing strategy. Furthermore, our advanced printing technology ensures that every piece is produced with exceptional quality, vibrant colours, and precise detail. As a result, we can help you bring your creative visions to life, no matter how unique or intricate they may be.

Strength

Our PVC Café Banners not only offers a beautiful finish, but it has been made with strength in mind. This combination of aesthetics and durability makes it an ideal choice for various settings. Normal applications include marine and display, where both visual appeal and resilience are crucial. In marine environments, our PVC withstands harsh weather conditions and exposure to water, ensuring longevity and reliability. Similarly, in display applications, it enhances the visual presentation while maintaining structural integrity, making it perfect for retail and exhibition use. Ultimately, our PVC product stands out as a versatile solution that meets the demands of both beauty and performance.

Before submitting your artwork to us, please make sure you have read our artwork and proofing guidelines, which are detailed below. Adhering to these guidelines is crucial in ensuring that your artwork is processed smoothly and meets our quality standards.

Artwork Files

We will only accept files in the following formats: PDF, Ai, and EPS. It is important that these files are editable and in high resolution, as this will significantly impact the quality of your final printed product. Additionally, all font files must be converted to outlines to avoid any issues during printing. If your fonts are not converted to outlines, we kindly request that you supply the font file as a .ttf file. Please note that we do not work with or accept Microsoft Word files or PowerPoint presentations, as these formats do not meet our technical requirements.

Preparation of Artwork

When preparing your artwork, please set it up without bleed or crop marks. This will help us to maintain a clean and professional appearance in the final product. Furthermore, the overall height of our standard banners is 860mm, which includes 90mm top and bottom pockets. To ensure optimal visibility and design integrity, we do not advise having your artwork printed over the pockets. Consequently, the overall print area height for your artwork should therefore be 680mm, allowing for the proper display of your design.

Please Note

It is important to understand that we cannot be held responsible for any spelling errors, typos, incorrect telephone numbers, or improper setup of files. To ensure a seamless process, we encourage you to double-check your artwork before submission. If we believe that a file is incorrect before production, we will reach out to you and request a new file, as our goal is to provide you with the best possible results.

Finally, we advise that all artwork is supplied at 300dpi at full size. This high resolution is essential for producing sharp and clear images in the final product. By following these guidelines, you can help us create a stunning representation of your design that meets your expectations.

Printing

Please ensure that all artwork files are set to CMYK. Computer screens and other digital displays create colour in RGB. This stands for red, green & blue. The mixture of these 3 primary colours creates all the different colours you see. In printing we print in CMYK. We use these 4 colours – Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black in combination to create a printed banner. This means that if artwork is supplied to us in RGB our software needs to convert the colour to CMYK. This conversion process can sometimes give unexpected results and printed colours can look very different to what you expected. It is therefore important that the artwork file you send us is converted to CMYK before it is sent.

We can match Pantone colours; however, we cannot guarantee an exact match. You must notify us of any Pantone colours that require matching. If you do not notify us of any Pantone colours on your artwork, then we will print to the nearest CMYK value. Due to the nature and limitations of the CMYK printing system, we cannot guarantee an exact match. If you would like us to run a sample, this will incur a small cost and extend your lead time.

Proofing

When ordering banners, we will provide you with a proof as standard. Your proofs will be sent over to you via email within 3 working days. Your first 2 proofs are supplied free. Any other proofs that need to be provided after this will incur an additional cost.

Your order will not be put into production until we receive proof approval from yourselves. If we do not receive artwork confirmation, then this will delay the shipping of your order.

Banner Sizing

Our banners are manufactured in-house and can be made to any width. For ease of use, the following sizes are manufactured as standard post centres. 1200mm, 1500mm, 1800mm, 2000mm. The actual width of the banner is 214mm less than the post centre dimension. See diagram below.
