  All goods are sent via a 3rd party courier on a standard 24 hour delivery and will require a signature. Should you require an earlier delivery I.E a pre 10am or weekend delivery please contact our team who will be able to help.

  PVC printed banners work  all day everyday. Their  low cost makes them suitable for all budgets.

  To get the most out of your PVC banner its vital that it's fitted correctly with the correct fixings. But before you even get to fitting your banner its important to know what space your working with.

  At Universal Banners we don't just sell stock sized banners, for no extra cost you can provide us with your custom sized measurements, to make sure your banner always looks it’s best. Our fast and easy online calculator will quickly give you a price for your desired size.

  To make hanging your banner easier all of our banners come with nickel eyelets as standard, but rope is also available which can be hemmed straight into your banner ideal for spans etc.

   In our experience we have found that eyelets are the most popular.

  Banner eyelets are normally fitted every two feet to keep the PVC banner material flat and secure against the elements. Should you wish to have a different finish please let our team know. 

  We are also able to provide fittings for your banner. The most common fitting we recommend which will keep your banner flat and is most adaptable to different environments and locations is the bungee cord ball and loop, also known as shock cord. 

  This cost effective fitting is easy to use simply wrapping around the structure and the eyelet on your banner and locking itself over the ball.

   Bungee loops are  a non invasive option that will leave no marks after your event is finished. This method is great for hanging banners around poles , railings , fences, posts and balconies . We supply bungee cord loops in a variety of lengths to meet your requirements. 

  When its comes to fitting banners to brick walls or wooden fences we suggest simply using steel penny washers with wall plugs and screws for brick walls or self-taping screws on fences. 

  To keep tension in your banner you can still use bungee cords with this option by just fitting hooks.

  Please remember to always get the wall/ fence owners permission before carrying out any work and be sure to check that you will not be drilling through any electrical wiring or plumbing work.

• Banner Printing FAQ

  What designs work best on banners?

  A big part of deciding what design you would like on your banner is thinking where is it going to go? If you are planning on it being in front of a fast road, then a vinyl banner that is very information heavy probably won't have much impact. In our experience we have always found that less is more when it comes to banner designs. A few images and just the key text for your event is a very effective way to grab your audience's attention for the few seconds they will see your banner.

  Are your banners weatherproof?

  We only print on high quality rip stop PVC banner material that is designed to stand up to the harshest environments. Our UV inks are fade resistant & 100% waterproof. Additionally our heat welded hems and rust proof nickel eyelets will extend the life of your banner considerably. 

  What size banners can you make?

   We can custom make banners to any size at no extra cost meaning you can make the most of your advertising space. Our simple to use online calculator can give you an instant price. 

  I am a trade customer , do you offer trade rates on banner printing? 

  We print banners on behalf of many trade customers. We can even send banners in white label packaging directly to your customer. 

  What is the standard finishing option?

  The industry standard finishing option is for a PVC banner to have hems and eyelets. That said we can finish your banner in a large variety of ways to suit your requirements. Simply choose a finish from ' Banner finish' Drop down above. If you are wondering about the right finish for your banner please do not hesitate to get in touch. 

  What is the difference between the banner finishing options?

  We offer a wide range of banner finishes to make our vinyl banners as versatile as possible. CLICK HERE to view a blog post we created all about banner finishing options and the ideal locations for each banner finish. 

  How do you offer such a good quality service/banners at such competitive pricing?

  By bulk buying our banner material and using the latest equipment we can offer a fast and efficient PVC banner printing service. Ever since we produced our first vinyl banners in 1998, we have constantly looked to improve our production capabilities.

  Over the years we have invested in some of the most cutting-edge banner making equipment such as our extra wide format printers that allow us to print extra sharp banners to any size. We have also introduced a digital cutting table, industrial heat welding machine (we do not use cheap poor-quality tape for our hems!) and our ultra-efficient automatic eyeleting machine.

  Yes – A proof with your artwork will be sent to the email address provided when you placed your order. Once you have approved it, we will start the production process.
