Large format printing · Banners & hoarding

Large format printing, banners and hoarding

Banners, construction hoarding, mesh wraps, trade show graphics and mounted panels, printed for outdoor or indoor use and installed by our own crew.

Big prints, checked before they are big

A mistake that is invisible on a screen becomes very visible at three metres wide. We check every file for resolution, bleed and colour before printing and send a proof for approval.

Built for wind and weather

Outdoor pieces get materials and finishing chosen for where they will hang: mesh for windy fences and scaffolds, reinforced hems and grommets for banners, and rigid panels for long-term signs.

Questions

Large format printing: common questions

What is large format printing used for?
Trade show graphics, retail and window displays, event banners, construction hoarding, wall murals and building wraps: anything that needs to be read from across a room or across a street.
Will outdoor prints fade?
Outdoor work uses UV-rated inks and laminates chosen for exposure. Any print in full sun will change eventually; specifying it properly means it holds its colour for as long as you need it.
What file format should I send?
Vector artwork (PDF, AI or EPS) with type converted to outlines is ideal because it scales without losing quality. High-resolution images can work depending on the finished size. Send what you have and we will tell you whether it will hold up.
Can you install banners on buildings and fences?
Yes. We install on hoarding, fences, scaffolds and building faces, with the right fixings for wind.
