Outdoor banners printed at Clubcard Vancouver are designed to last for years of outdoor use as they are printed on 13oz scrim weatherproof vinyl with optional metal grommets for fastening.
These waterproof and scuff-resistant banners are printed in sizes from 12" to 120" in full colour on reinforced 13oz scrim vinyl that has a built-in mesh reinforcement to make it perfect for large banners, trade show signage and even building wraps.
Clubcard brings 3 decades of print experience to every banner printing project and we're here to ensure your banners look great!
How Do You Hang Outdoor Banners?
Grommets or Banner Tabs! Clients have a choice between embedded brass grommets, or adhesive tabs to make hanging easier. Brass grommets are placed around the perimeter of the banner in 2 foot increments and are an additional cost. Banner tabs are applied by you and are free.
How Many Grommets Do I Need?
If a small banner, 1 grommet in each corner is probably enough. We also offer grommets every 2 feet, which is better to longer banners or banners that might be exposed to wind and other forces.
Not Intended for Large Areas of Ink Coverage
Depending on the colour build, you may get some streakiness in large areas of solid coverage. We recommend a white background for best results.
Only 150DPI Is Required, so Go Big!
We recommend 150 DPI resolution images for large format printing, so you can go larger than you might expect. Also, if designed for viewing further away, lower resolution could work for your purposes. You can always request a 12" x 12" printed proof on the actual banner stock, so you can see the print quality prior to the job going into production.
