Frequently Asked Questions »

What is Phototex?

Phototex is a paste free self adhesive wall covering. It is easy to install and removable and re-positionable so if you get any bubbles it can be lifted up and put back down.  Thanks to the oil-based adhesive it is fully removable as the adhesive does not cure.

If I remove Phototex can I re-use it another time?

In theory yes this is possible.  You will need to keep the original backing paper to put it back on for when storing and also make sure that your wall is dust free when applying.

How will the joins look on a large wall?

There is an option to have a butt join or overlap join.  Both have their advantages and disadvantages.  A butt join if lined up correctly will be the least noticeable. However getting it to match exact on a self adhesive product can be tricky without leaving gaps. Overlap joins give you a bit more play when lining up so there will be no gaps but the join will be more visible.

Will you check my artwork?

Yes all artwork is checked before production begins.

Can Phototex be used outdoors?

Yes Phototex can be used outdoors for short term applications that need to be removed easily without any damage to the substrate underneath.

Can this be cut to a shape?

Yes we can cut this to shape on our accurate computer operated cutting equipment. If you need it cutting to shape please specify when ordering and supply a separate cut layer on your artwork where possible.

Will this stick to existing wallpaper?

Yes you can stick over the top of existing wallpaper and remove easily.  Take care when removing from wallpaper to avoid damage.

Will the product blockout any marks or image that is underneath?

It will not 100% hide marks or images underneath but it will mask them a little.

Can Phototex be applied on newly painted walls?

It is recommended that you allow 4 weeks or more before application.

Buying banners in confidence

You can buy from Banner World with confidence. Your job will go through several checks before manufacture. Firstly when your job comes in, we check all your uploaded files and cross-reference each file against your order. At this point, if we see that artwork is incorrect or if there is a file missing we will contact you to request new artwork. Most of our banners and fabrics are manufactured at our large print factory in Europe. Our standard turnaround on items is 5-6 working days for delivery. Even though most of our ordering system has been automated, we still carry out several manual checks before processing your order. If at any point we have a question or a problem with your order you will be contacted before manufacturing.

Our processes

Please read the information below on how your order is processed. Each order goes through several checks before printing. Our file checking service is standard procedure on all orders. Checking your files means that you can place your order in confidence, knowing that we will check to make sure your order and corresponding artwork match and are correct. Anything we are not sure that we will contact you before proceeding.

What is Our Initial checking service?

When you place an online order, we will cross-reference your artwork against your order. At this point, we will check that the artwork sizes and file type match the order. We will make sure we have the correct number of artwork files for the job. At this stage, if anything appears to be incorrect, we will place the order on hold and contact you immediately.

How do we process your order?

Once we are happy with your order, we will then process it. We collate all the information for each job, including finishing and material type. The job information is then sent with your artwork to the pre-press department. Pre-press is where we will create and prepare your job for printing.

Our Pre Press and second checking service.

Pre-press refers to the stage before printing. Here your artwork is converted into the correct format for our machines and finishing processes. At this point, if something is spotted which isn’t correct or if there is a problem we will again contact you.

How do we print and track your order through the factory?

Your job is now batched together with other items on the same material. Each item has assigned to it a unique code. The code is used to track the order through our factory. The information is used to check the material, quantity and finishing information on the item. The order then goes through our print presses.

How do we finish your printed items?

Every job we produce is different to the next, whether it be size, material, shape or finishing. Your printed items will be finished as requested on your order. We automate as much of the finishing as possible, cutting down on labour costs and passing on the savings to you. The Prepress data is inputted into parts of our finishing equipment. Your graphics are now finished to your custom requirements. Each printed product is set up differently for each type of finishing process. A banner that has hem and eyelets will be manufactured and produced in a different way to a flag with a pole pocket.

How are your items packed?

We have now manufactured your items. The finishing pieces now move onto the packing department. At the packing stage, we collate your order. Items get checked off against the order using the order code system. The printed goods get wrapped and packed, ready for despatch.

How do you ship my goods?

Now your item has been packed it is ready to be shipped. From placing your order, your goods have taken approx 24-48 hours to get to this stage. We have a logistics team which arrange the shipping through UPS. Our standard delivery (£15 or free over £250) will now take an additional three days to be delivered to an address on UK mainland and most of mainland Europe. Our standard shipping will travel via road and sea to reach the UK. We do offer a faster 1-day shipping method which is our 4-day turnaround service. The fast turnaround service is expensive on low-value bulky orders and is more cost-effective on higher volume jobs. Items to the US and other worldwide destinations will take longer to be delivered. For items going to Ireland, the Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, Scottish highlands etc. please add an extra day onto delivery times
