Print Process

Banners are completely odor free, dry, water & UV proof, with no tack, and smooth to the touch

We use latest generation 6 Color HP Latex Print Technology printed in High Pass, High Quality Mode (6 pass / 1200 DPI, CMYK LC LM mode), resulting in stunning high resolution printing with smooth skin tones & gradients, bright logo & text colors, and crisp clear printing with no fuzziness or blurriness.

Sizes & Packaging

Banners are shipped rolled, never folded, and are guaranteed to be wrinkle-free.

Sizes are listed in foot height x width ranging from 2x2 to 10x50 feet, and we are happy to accommodate custom sizes on requests. Please contact us for requirements if needed. Custom sizes will be priced by the next available standard larger size.

Vinyl Banner Materials

Standard Banner Vinyl

Even the most affordable vinyl banner we sell is printed on high quality 13 ounce vinyl to produce a visually stunning matte finished image that shows no reflections or glare.

Heavy-Duty Banner Vinyl

For the person who wants to go that extra mile to make sure their banner is the strongest it can be, we will print your image on a three layered extra durable 18oz vinyl.

Hemming

Fold-back heat-welded hemming provides additional structural reinforcement and is included free of charge.

We heat weld the edges of each banner by folding and bonding together approximately 1 inch of vinyl material on all four sides forming a fused hem that cannot be torn apart! Heat welding provides maximum strength, helping your banner withstand wear, pressure and poor weather, and is superior to stitching, gluing, and taping.

Grommets

We use quality #2 metal grommets that are punched approx. 1/2-inch off the edge of the banner

At Printastic, you can select how many grommets you want and specify where you want them. The metal grommets we use measure 3/4" on the outside with about 1/2" diameter hole with a smooth inside edge to ensure cords or rope used for securing your banner will not chaff or fray.

Printing and Production Questions

What is finishing?

Finishing includes sewing or welding hems to reinforce edges to strengthen grommet holes, inserting grommets for installation, and even choosing the right shade of grommets to ensure they do not distract from your design.

Does Printastic Include grommets, hemming and / or pockets at no charge?

Yes! Unlike our competitors, we never charge for the extras you need to ensure durability.

Will Printastic print my banner if I include an obvious flaw in my artwork?

We always inspect artwork and resolution before we print and will redesign your artwork prior to printing if we see a design flaw that should be corrected.

Am I able to upload my own print ready file?

Absolutely! At the time of ordering you will provide us either an uploaded graphics file or design your banner online using our easy to use platform.

Can I customize your templates or buy as is?

Yes! Using our design tools you may customize our designs with preferred font choices, sizing, rewording text, and adding graphics and background colors. And if you want to order a template without any alterations, you can do that also.

Are your products and materials manufactured in the USA?

Yes, we utilize raw products and services that are all based in the USA. Our production and sales facility is located in Novi, Michigan (Suburb of Detroit).

If I use your online designer, can I upload my own graphics and logos when designing?

Yes you can! Our online design tools allow you to upload any graphic file to include when creating your banner.

Does Printastic Offer a Print Guarantee?

Advertising Questions

Are banners still relevant in our digital age?

Absolutely! Printing banners is one of the more effective and affordable methods for retail and service businesses to post specials, advertise sales and promote weekly offerings.

What type of business designs are most effective?

Whether you are promoting a service or product special, catchy and to the point text offers will always attract more attention than complicated graphically intensive banners.

Are color choices important when designing?

Contrasting your design's colors from the general color scheme of your surroundings is very important. Always have a general idea of the environment you intend to place your banner to ensure the color choices of your design pop visually and do not blend into the surroundings.

Is sizing an important part of the design process?

Correctly determining the appropriate size of your banner is important and should always be based on how large your fonts need to be in order for your audience to easily interpret your message.

How does time factor into how well my designs will attract attention?

The vast majority of people who would react to the promotions and specials you print are on the move, and making sure they have time to fully interpret your message by factoring in the number of seconds they have while passing by is critical.

Should I know where I intend to install my banner prior to ordering?

Yes you should. Knowing where you intend to place your banner will help you determine size, color choices, message length to maximize exposure to your audience.
