Quality Materials

The following materials are the best choices for making a backdrop. We only use high-quality flame retardant medias made for touring and gigging bands. Looking for a specific material? Contact Us

Solid Vinyl - 13oz

This strong PVC banner material is great for indoor and outdoor backdrops. Designed for high-quality vivid color printing. Fade and tear resistant with a long-term durability at an affordable price. We recommend solid vinyl for small to medium club stages, table banners and signage.

• Popular choice for banners & small backdrops
• Store rolled or it will crease
• Affordable with great vivid color

Mesh Vinyl - 8oz

The mesh has thousands of small holes that allow the most sound and wind to travel through with a moderately transparent look. Our 70/30 weave is ideal for viewing at a further distance with superior image quality. It is very rugged and can be used in all kinds of heavy weather. A majority of the large graphics we produce are made with Mesh Vinyl. In fact, most bands use this material because it’s the most rugged, versatile and economical. It is also easier to care for than Solid Vinyl.

• Allows sound and wind to pass through
• Moderately transparent look
• Most versatile and economical media choice

Poly Fabric - 5oz

This lightweight fabric allows some sound to travel through while looking great. The color really POPS because the inks are not printed on top but embedded into the fabric with our Dye-Sublimation process. Machine washable and iron safe. The fabric can be folded down making it highly portable and wrinkle resistant. Fabric will give your band an extremely attractive and impressive look.

• Allows some sound to pass through
• Moderately opaque look – Colors really pop
• Can be folded down to a compact size

Hemmed - Included for FREE

Edges are folded over and are either sewn or heat-welded together. This provides a finished look and gives it added strength. Banners, Stage Scrims and Backdrops come with this FREE option unless specified.

Grommets - Included for FREE

The most versatile way to hang a banner is to fasten grommets into the hem. The grommets allow you to use rope, hooks, bungee cord and cable tie with your rigging. They are punched every 2-3 feet into the top and bottom or you cab let us know where you want them custom placed by sending us notes in the Designer App. Grommets are included for FREE.

Pole Pockets

Finishing with Pole Pockets allows for a poll to be inserted into the banner along the top and bottom edges for horizontal hanging. This option can be used with Pipe & Drape Systems, Stage Scrim Stands or any venue which has a Top Crossbar. Pole Pockets create a more even distribution of weight which helps minimize sagging. A weighted bar can also be inserted into the bottom pocket making the banner hang more flat and taut. This will give you a more professional appearance.   More Info

Reinforced Webbing

A cross-stitched nylon strip is heat welded or sewn inside of the hem. Webbing is added for maximum strength and extra durability. This type of reinforcement greatly reduces the risk of the grommets tearing out in wind or from the sheet weight of the banner or backdrop. We suggest this option for banners over 60 sq ft and all backdrops.

Tear-Away Backdrops - For the Opening Act

Our Tear-Away feature allows the opening act’s backdrop to be pulled down without the need for an expensive electronic drop system. The backdrop is held in place at the top with velcro which can be removed quick and easy at the end of the band’s set. For more info Contact Us

Ropes

We can sew 1/4” rope into the top and bottom hem of the banner. We normally install 2′ of slack on both ends. You can use the ropes to easily hang your banner. We also normally install Grommets for extra strength unless specified.

O-Rings and D-Rings

We will install these rings into all four corners of your banner. This is another finishing option used for suspending a banner across a roadway or between two poles which help keep your banner straight.

Velcro

You can use velcro mounting to attach your banner directly to a flat surface. This is great for long-term and short-term use. It allows for quick setup and easy removal. We can send strips of velcro or it can also be directly sewn to a banner itself.
