Media Backdrop Banners

Have you ever dreamed of  a really large pull up banner but just assumed that they simply don't exist? Well, they do! Pull up banners as large as 2.4 x 2 meters are available and are often refered to as Media Backdrops due to the fact that they are often used as a backdrop to press conferences or in television interviews with sports stars or other personalities.

Large banner stands like these are often also used as backdrops for exhibitions or trade shows. They are great for this purpose as they are easily transported - the banner simply retracts back into the base of the unit which then packs away into the carry bag for transport.

Do don't dream, it's a reality. Media backdrop banners are the new big banner on the block and they're here to stay!

Big-Ass Banner Stands

One of the less common form of pull up banner that are available from some suppliers are oversized banner stands. Standard banner displays are about 850 x 2000mm - and that's a great size for many banner applications, but sometimes you just need to live large!

A banner like this is sure to get  you noticed at exhibitions or trade shows. Likewise, it has great impact as a central focus of a shop window display. But when even a banner like this seems a little lacking, it's time to pull out the big guns. This huge style of pull up banner is also referred to as a media backdrop or exhibition backdrop due to the fact that it creates a kind of, banner stand wall that is suitable as a backdrop for press conferences or trade shows:

Simply pull up the banner at your exhibition or press conference and you are 99% of your way to a professional presentation thanks to the huge 2400 x 2000mm surface area of this backdrop banner!

So next time you're thinking pull up banners, maybe you should think big!

L-Banners Do It Better!

I just want to put this out there...

I think L-Banners are a better portable banner display system than pull up or pop up banners! Controversial I know. Particularly coming from a guy writing a blog about pull up banners, but hear me out while I state my case.

L-Banners: They are simply good!

Have you ever viewed a good quality L-Banner in the flesh? They have a simplicity and quality about them that many pull ups lack. These displays typically have a solid steel foot with a chrome finish that provides a good weighty base for the banner and adds a real feel of quality. This style of base is also very minimal in terms of its appearance. There are no awkward feet protruding out the front of the display, as there is with pull up and pop up banners and the banner itself is presented to the viewer with a little more angle which adds an element of visual stability.

It's true that there is a little more work in erecting and packing down the banner, but really we are talking only about a difference of no more than a minute, so unless you are putting the banner up and down multiple times each day, it is not really an issue. And when they are packed down, L-Banner Stands are smaller and easier to transport than pull up banners.

So there you go, the wonders of the humble L-Banner
