Tall, bold and attention grabbing – Just like on websites and in digital advertising, Roller Banners can help advertise your product or services at your next event, conference or trade show. They even make fantastic video conferencing backgrounds!
This mini guide aims to answer some key questions to help you find the right roller banner option for you.
What is a roller banner?
Roller banners are portable marketing tools you often see at events or conferences. Your messaging is printed on high-quality PVC attached to a robust metal stand.
Why choose a roller banner?
To grab your customers’ attention. Perfect for advertising an upcoming event or introducing a special offer, roller banners are…
- Portable and lightweight. Easy to transport from the office to the trade show
- Fully customisable. Personalise with your offers and messaging
- Attention-grabbing. Bright, bold and eye-catching designs
- Affordable. Options to suit every budget and need – from one-off to long-term use
- Flexible. Coming in a range of roller banner sizes and designs
Pull up roller banners: the popular option
The most common type of roller banner. Its name refers to the way the PVC is pulled up from the stand, rolling out to present your message. These banners feature your branding on a 225mic grey PVC, held in place with an aluminium frame.
They also come with a protective carry bag, so you can easily transfer your banner from place to place and safely store it for future use. Pull-up roller banner options include:
- Black pull up: Traditional design with a sleek aluminium stand and simple, sophisticated frame.
- Wide pull up: Larger display for greater impact at trade shows and events – perfect for big reveals.
- Premium pull up: Printed on best-quality matt-coated vinyl to soften glare for a clearer picture.
- Double sided: Printed on two pieces of vinyl, then reattached to form one banner. Double-sided banners are great for maximum visibility of your message at events and trade shows.
