Custom printed totems are tall, freestanding display pieces designed to make messages impossible to ignore. They’re commonly used in retail spaces, exhibitions, receptions, and events to showcase branding, promotions, directions, or key information.
We offer an expanding selection of sustainable materials that can be recycled after use. PVC-free banners offer the same durability and print quality as traditional PVC but are recyclable. Cardboard signage is popular for temporary events and can produce impressive results, and be easily recycled.
We have a banner recycling scheme for people who buy banners from us.
When sourcing materials for your outdoor advertising, we recommend using weatherproof materials such as Foamex boards and banners, which offer water-repellent properties and UV protection. Outdoor flags are always eye-catching.
A quick and easy setup can help your outdoor marketing. Flags, chalkboards and A-stands give a large canvas to showcase your design but also means you can place them anywhere you need them outside, like a pavement or seating area. Plus, they're easy to store.
Selecting the right font size and colour is crucial in outdoor advertising to ensure message visibility and readability from a distance. A larger font size ensures that the message is legible from afar. Contrast with the background and bold colours can also enhance attention and memorability.
It is not possible to manually allocate eyelets on your banner. Our system employs an automated process to determine the optimal positioning of the eyelets to enhance the banner's strength and durability.

Flyers, leaflets and posters are some of the most affordable ways to promote an event locally. Combined with a few large banners or flags in high-traffic areas, they can help generate awareness and drive attendance without requiring a large marketing budget.
Barrier banners are commonly used on fencing or crowd-control barriers to display branding, sponsor logos or directional messaging. They help organise spaces, guide visitors and create additional advertising opportunities around the venue.
Yes. Many event banners are printed on durable materials such as PVC or PVC-free substrates that can last several years outdoors. If your design avoids event-specific dates, you may be able to reuse banners for recurring events or annual campaigns.
Use large text, strong colour contrast and simple messaging. Avoid overcrowding the design with too much information. Clear branding and bold graphics make signage easier to read from a distance and help capture attention quickly.
If your outdoor space is sceptical to windy conditions, using either our “Concrete Base” or “Large Water Base” will help your flag stay grounded.
It’s usually best to order event advertising materials at least two to three weeks before the event. This allows enough time to distribute flyers, display banners and posters in key locations, and ensure everything is installed and ready before attendees arrive.
Mesh banners are often the best choice for windy conditions. The perforated mesh material allows wind to pass through the banner, reducing resistance and helping prevent tearing or movement. This makes them ideal for outdoor events, festivals and construction fencing.
Flags are also a good choice and can be used in wind speeds up to 18km
For maximum visibility, combine several advertising formats. Large banners or mesh banners can be used for entrances or fencing, flags can draw attention from a distance, and posters or A-frames can highlight key messages such as schedules or directions around the venue.
A mix of large-format signage and handouts usually works best. Outdoor banners, flags and rigid boards help attract attention from a distance, while flyers, leaflets and programmes provide visitors with useful details about the event once they arrive. Using a combination of formats helps increase visibility and engagement.
