What is included in the price of your banner stands?

What is the difference between Vinyl Banner and Banner Stand?

Banner Stand is an aluminum hardware that holds our full color printed banner. When searching our site for "banner stand" you will find a wide variety of combinations between the hardware and the materials that the banners are printed on. Banner Stands are mostly used for trade shows, retail stores, lobbies etc.

Vinyl Banner is our 13oz material that we use for banners/signage WITHOUT hardware. Just like our banner stand displays, our Vinyl Banners are printed in full color. Vinyl Banners are great for indoor/outdoor use and can be easily hung on walls using grommets.


What is the difference between the narrow base retractable unit and the wide base retractable unit?

The wide base is recommended because it offers more aluminum in the base, which makes its heavier, sturdier and more durable when using for a longer period of time. Please note that the media is printed the exact same way, whether it's for the narrow or wide base unit.


What materials are your retractable banners made of?

Our most popular material for the retractable stands is the stay flat vinyl. We also offer bond paper with a 3MIL laminate, in your choice of matte or gloss finish, polyester satin and a fabric that is printed with dye sublimation.


What is the difference in your materials?

Material for Complete NewYork Banner Stands Unit (Poster, stand, and carrying bag).

Can I get pictures off the Internet? Why or why not?

Not usually. Most pictures retrieved off the Internet are very small with low resolution. For best output, a high-resolution photo is suggested.

What is a dye-sublimation printer?

Our dye-sublimation printers have a direct to fabric printing, where the ink is applied directly to the substrate and sublimated with heat and pressure that is built into the printer. Textiles can be customized with photo quality images that become a permanent part of the fabric. The quality of the stunning, high color images is perfect for any tradeshow display banner or custom table throw.


CMYK printing vs. PMS Colors

All of our printers print in CMYK. Pantone spot colors (PMS) are solid inks that are assigned numbers that look the same no matter who prints them. CMYK colors are created using a mix of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black inks. Since there are variations between presses, press operators, materials and other factors, CMYK colors are not guaranteed to be perfectly reproduced between printers or even print jobs. If a specific PMS color is required, it is highly recommended to purchase a paper proof for an additional $15 per proof.

 


What are the End Caps for the Wide Base Retractable Stands?

End caps are plastic covers that go on either end of the aluminum hardware base of the stand. They are not a necessity but they do add a more finished look to the stand. They are available in black or blue.
