Signage technology has advanced to a point where graphics are easily and professionally displayed anywhere you need them. Here are some of the latest innovations for portable event or retail signage:

Portable Banner Frame – Saggy PVC banners are yesterday’s news. Lightweight portable banner frames are easy to put up and fold down to fit in the back of a car. Make sure your marketing and advertising message is professionally displayed with a portable banner frame, which features:

Display Tunnel — The Display Tunnel is a unique three-dimensional display product that will make your brand stand out from the crowd at any event, indoor or outdoor. The unit is extremely lightweight and based around a coil spring that is easy to assemble in seconds and packs away into a small carry bag. For coping with windy conditions, ground pegs are supplied to anchor the Tunnel down. For use on hard surfaces, weights can be put in pockets inside the display to hold it in place.

Free Standing Banner Frame — A freestanding banner frame is ideally suited to advertising promotion in retail locations and is an ideal semi permanent banner display solution. Made from sturdy galvanised steel, it can be supplied with weighted bases or ground sleeves for a more permanent fixture. Popular for professional banner display on forecourts, fast food outlets, pubs, and anywhere else you want to get your marketing message across to passing traffic.

Pop-Up Banner Frame — Ultra portable self erecting banners, pop-up banner frames are perfect for use outdoors, at sporting events, golf days, county shows or indoors at exhibitions. Whatever the marketing activity or advertising message, these pop-up banners will get you maximum exposure with minimum fuss. A very popular alternative to traditional PVC banners and frames, this unit utilizes a patented heavy-duty fibreglass frame allowing you to set-up in just 30 seconds. A vertical frame is available in three sizes as well as a three-sided tower; the horizontal frame comes in five sizes. All offer graphics printed on both sides in full colour, are waterproof and can be pegged down for maximum stability in exposed outdoor areas.

Large Format Printing for a Big Impact

One of the most vital tools to drive traffic to your trade fair booth, retail shop or event is the graphics you choose to display.  Ensuring that your company’s logo, taglines and positioning statements, and relevant images draw attention is best achieved through large format printing.

Large companies like Discount Displays that specialize in large format printing use several printing methods for creating larger-than-life display graphics:

These innovative new inks do not produce ozone emissions during printing and contain no hazardous air pollutants or sensitizers. What’s more, these inks are non-flammable and non-combustible. Outdoor prints achieve display permanence up to three years unlaminated and up to five years laminated.  The prints are scratch, smudge, and water resistant on a wide range of media.
