Common Pole Pocket Banner Themes
Here's how some of our customers have been creative with their pole banner designs and displays:
- Promoting upcoming concert events
- Sharing holiday spirit with snowflake signage
- Celebrating a sports team's anniversary season
- Advertising a local Farmer's Market
- Raising safety awareness
One popular design is a sequence of pole pocket banners along a road or path, each with a different printed message—this type of display has eye-catching visual impact that is noticeable and memorable.
Pole Banners in Parking Lots
Pocket pole banners mounted on light posts in large parking lots is another common use. Parking lots at large companies, malls, stadiums, hotels, car lots, grocery stores, event spaces, and campuses typically have dozens of light posts—pole banner installations can put these to use for marketing, promotions, and advertising.
Pole Pocket Finishing — Heat-Welded vs. Stitched
Heat-Welded Pole Pockets
Our standard heat-welded pockets are virtually invisible, providing a smooth, professional look that performs well for indoor displays and outdoor installations in locations with gentle-to-moderate weather. The welding process quickly heats the vinyl to a melting temperature and bonds the two pieces of vinyl together to form a secure pocketed sleeve that won't tear or fray under normal usage conditions.
Stitched Pole Pockets
Sewed stitching is a more complex design, however it's worth the investment if your banners are intended for use in windy conditions. Printastic's professional-grade sewing process provides the extra heavy-duty performance needed for outdoor installations.
Optional stitched hems are visible against the printed banner, however we have industrial UV-coated thread available in a variety of colors to match your banner design.
Single-Sided Pole Pocket Banners
Banners finished with pocketed sleeves for pole mounting allow rigid rods inserted into the banner to evenly distribute the banner's weight. Opposing pole pockets can make the banner appear rigid and hang flatter and tauter. This technique prevents sagging and makes the banner easier to display and see.
We print single-sided pocket banners with no white borders on any edge, thanks to our process that uses the total surface area of the front vinyl to create high resolution graphics with a full-bleed presentation.
Single-sided pole pocket banners are typically used in situations where viewing is only required from one direction. Popular installations include against walls, in dedicated frames or stands, on one-way streets, and in parades and for marching bands.
