Banners

Two weeks ago, we launched our new blog, “Printing, Etc.” Hopefully, you’ve all had a chance to read it by now. If not, you can check out the two entries below this one!

As mentioned before, the purpose of this blog is to keep you, the customers, informed  about the services that DDWerks has to offer.

Remember the last time you saw a “Welcome!” banner hanging up across a walkway when you arrived at a conference? A congratulatory one for a family friend’s child’s college graduation? Or one strung across a road advertising an art festival in your city? These signs, whether big, small, stretched across a street, or hung on a wall in a lobby, advertise more than just the details of an event. They advertise the quality and importance of the event along with the dedication of the people who put it on. Without knowing much, people make associations in their mind between what they already know and the new information that is presented to them. So, why not let us help you help your future clients make those great associations!

That being said, it’ll be helpful for you to know what creating and purchasing a banner looks like with DDWerks. We offer a variety of options to make your experience a great one. We print mainly on vinyl. Vinyl banner printing comes in full color on one side with two different stocks to choose from, 13oz. gloss vinyl and 13oz. matte vinyl. This full color option gives you a ton of freedom with your banner’s design. As well, the gloss and matte vinyl stocks are available in many popular sizes. The minimum size is two feet high by two feet wide and a maximum of sixteen feet high and one hundred and fifty feet wide. That’s just in one piece. Of course, we can always do bigger. The turnaround time for is two to four days, which means your banner will be completed and in your hands quickly! This is especially useful if you’re crunched for time.

In addition to printing the banners, we have a variety of finishing options. These options include grommets, hemmed edges, and pole pockets. For those of you who don’t know, grommets are a convenient method for attaching the banner at regular points. Grommets are unique because they distribute the banner’s weight efficiently. Hemmed edges are typically used to reinforce the sides of the vinyl banners. This keeps them from stretching and helps preserve their shape. The last option is to add in pole pockets. Pole pockets allow for rigid poles to be inserted along the edges of the banner. This option allows for more of an even distribution of the banner’s weight to keep it from sagging.

You can check out our photo gallery that includes numerous banners that we’ve printed in the past, as well as see pictures of our different finishing options to see what will work best for you!
