Uses
An indoor banner is a flexible, versatile and economical way to display your message. Popular for markets, parties, celebrations, an indoor banner is a lightweight, durable option. Printed in full color and easily hung from the ceiling or on a wall, designs are endless. Indoor banners can easily be hung in places where heavier signs could not, and will last for decades inside.
Size
The right size indoor banner depends on your specific needs. That’s why we don’t place too many limits on your size options for indoor banners. We print indoor banners in every size. The most popular sizes available for indoor banners are:
- 10” x 12”
- 12” x 18”
- 18” x 24”
- 24” x 36”
- 48” x 96”
Shape
The most popular shape for an indoor banner is a square or rectangle (horizontal and vertical). We do offer circular, teardrop and flag shapes.
Design
The design of your indoor banner is more than just layout and colors. It is also important to factor in letter size. We provide a letter sizing calculator so you don’t have to guess whether or not your indoor banner will be readable.
Color
You can choose any color you want for your indoor banner. We print all of our indoor banners in full color. You can use any design, photo, logo or art at no extra charge. We do offer PMS Color Match.
Thickness
Indoor banners come in two thicknesses, determined by the ounce weight per square yard as opposed to actual thickness.
- 14 ounce: This is our standard banner strength, but is actually heavy-duty compared to the weaker material most other sign companies use. It is ideal for indoor use, as it is tear resistant and will last indefinitely inside.
- 20 ounce: This banner strength is not offered by most sign companies. It is double reinforced, making it the best option for oversized banners. It can withstand extremely windy weather conditions better than the 14 ounce material.
Installation
We offer a wide variety of installation kits and accessories to help you hang your indoor banner. We can place holes or grommets at the top, or all four corners, of your indoor banner to simplify the hanging process.
Popular accessories for displaying indoor banners are:
- Tabletop Displays
- Backwall Displays
- Scrolling Banner Stands
- Retractable Banner Stands
- Non-retractable Banner Stands
- Banner Frames
Finishing
We offer several finishing options for indoor banners:
Style A: Hemmed edges with grommets at the top and bottom as needed. (Number of grommets needed depends on banner size)
This is the most common finishing, and is useful for a variety of applications. It is best for mounting against a wall or fence.

 |
Style B: Hemmed edges with grommets at the top and bottom as needed, with rope sewn into the top and bottom hems. The rope ends extend out from the banner edge making ties. Rope length can be specified.
This finishing style adds versatility and strength to the basic grommet style, allowing the banner to be tied between poles or other secure fixtures.
|
Style C: Hemmed edges with rope sewn into the top and bottom hems. Rope extends from banner making ties. Rope length can be specified.
For vinyl banners tied between secure fixtures, this has strong construction, as it spreads wind forces over the length of the banner.
|
 |
 |
Style D: Hemmed sides with webbing sewn into top and bottom. Webbing extends as needed for ties.
This is an even stronger construction for vinyl banners that may be subjected to higher wind loads.
|
Style E: Hemmed sides, webbing top and bottom with grommets spaced as needed (depending on banner size).
Adding grommets offers more tie down points. This is especially helpful to support larger vinyl banners and to eliminate sagging. (Make sure the supporting structure will allow for it.)

Styles F: To support banners on hardware, sleeves can be sewn into the top and bottom of the banner. The sleeve can be sized to fit the hardware: the circumference (dia. X 3.14) of the supporting pole divided by 2 plus an inch will calculate a good sleeve size.
|
Style G: Grommets can be added to the top and bottom in an extra extension above and below the sleeves for more versatility in display options.
|
 |
 |
Style H: Street banners (or light pole banners) are usually finished with top and bottom sleeves with a grommet just below the top sleeve and just above the bottom sleeve.
|
Style I: For a very strong construction which will be attached using ties you supply, sewn in webbing with "D" rings offers a very reliable solution. When adding tie points to large vinyl banners, grommets can be added to the top and bottom, or even on the sides.
|
 |
All vinyl banners can be used indoors or out. How the banners will be used (displayed), normally prescribes how the banner is finished. When displaying banners outside, always think safety first. Be sure the supporting structure is sound. Vinyl banners hung out in the open can be subject to significant wind loads. Be sure you secure your vinyl banner well using the instructions included with your order.
