When ordering custom banner, one
question that comes to everyone’s mind is what material to use. The most common
materials being fabric and vinyl, the buyers often get confused about which one
will suit their requirement better. Fabric has been used for custom banner
printing since centuries and thus offers multiple advantages as well as
disadvantages. To help you make an informed decision, we have listed down some
of the pros and cons that you can weigh before making a decision.

Fabric
banners are available in wrinkle free varieties – It’s common for banners
to get creases. Be it nylon or vinyl banners, you will have to fold them to be
able to transport them and the result of that will be creases. Only fabric
banners can be ironed to bring them back to their original shape. You can thus
fold fabric banners however you want to and iron them to get the creases out
and make them look new again. Fold them again after use to store them in
drawers, bags or anywhere else. The negative side here is that you will need to
iron the banners
before you use them – adding to the work.
·
Fabric
banners are lightweight – As compared to vinyl, fabric banners do not carry
as much weight. This makes them easy to ship and store. In fact, you can choose
from the different weights available with the custom banner manufacturer. The weight you choose should depend upon where you wish to hang
these banners at. If you stay in a windy area, this may be a disadvantage as
the banner will fly even at the slightest flow of wind.

Colors
appear bright on fabric banners – Fabric banners and backdrops have been
used since so many years for obvious reasons – apart from the ones listed above
and because they can sport colors like no other material. Imaging and text
printed on fabric banners appears brighter and you can customize the designs as
per the requirements. Vinyl banners can print photographs easily while they
might not appear that perfectly on the fabric.

Fabric
banners make your photographs look even more beautiful
– Since the fabric banners absorb light rather than reflecting it, photographs
of banners and of them being used as backdrops, appear beautiful. This is
another reason why fabric banners have always sold like hot cakes. Since they
can get dirty easily, they are not recommended for long-term usage outside.
Whatever be your choice, weigh
your options before you make a decision and choose a custom banner printing provider that takes care of all your needs.
