banners all types

[Geneva Olson]

so. I'm curious, do ya'll sell the mesh banners and if so how often? Is it every so often or is it all the time? I ask because I never seem to get calls for them.

TIA

just every once in a while - maybe 3-4 per year?

 

[JBurton]

Same here, we do them for the HS softball team, I've ordered like 2 rolls total.

 

[gnubler]

Never, but I'm still 'newish' in business. I occasionally see them hanging on construction fences in my area so someone's doing them.
99% of my banner orders are printed on 15oz vinyl.

 

[Billct2]

Some, but mostly standard vinyl banners.

Little bit here and there. It’s worth to keep a roll on hand. We've done a few for sale banners for big properties that are ground mounted

About 50%/50% Mainly from schools and sports teams for windscreen fencing. Been having a time printing on it though - been causing head strikes. In 2022, we did a 5' high by 240' long mesh job. Unfortunately, I'd like to have the black back mesh, but it's only available i 126" widths and suppliers will not cut it in half, even offering to pay extra.

Random thought to add.... many people who ask us for a banner - are not aware of the mesh material. They only ask, when they know they have a concern for wind resistance... and they ask about slits in the banner - which we do NOT do, or recommend. It just compromises the life and strength of the banner. So, it comes up rarely probably because the average "I need to order a banner, but I don't do this all the time" clientele - won't know about mesh, or... need mesh.

ETA: Or they read this forum, and know it can cause head strikes. jk, sorry, so many mesh banner threads come up today.

I hate doing wind slits but I have a food chain that requires them. I give zero warranty and charge $5.00 per slit. I have tried and tried to get them to switch to mesh and they will not go for it.

I've never printed one or ordered one in 6 years.

I may have had a request twice but steered to regular banner material.

 

[DL Signs]

We do standard banners kinda regular, I have half a roll of mesh material that's so old it should be in the dumpster... That's how often we do those.

 

[Texas_Signmaker]

I prefer to sell them because they hold up longer.

 

[Gino]

Kinda the same as DL.

 

[RabidOne]

All the time. Hoarding signage for construction sites.

I was going to say, I do a ton for construction site fences.. 50' long and they hold up the best.

 

[Graphic Extremes]

I do a lot of little league banners for the fences so I use the mess all the time.

I assume you are using your regular supplier for these? I should order a sample once just to have one here.

 

[National Sign Co. - Print]

We print a lot of Mesh banners. If you are looking for a good partner when it comes to this let us know. We have the capability to print up to 16' width. We also will print them double sided if you are looking to have solid branding colors!

Attached are some photos of mesh banners we did for our local soccer team!

S365? No, they are ridiculous on their pricing on those. I use Signs2Trade for mesh.
