Scaffold Advertising Banners can be made to any size to suit your requirements, from small 1m x 1m scaffolding banners right up to massive building wraps.

We use only the best quality materials combined with our expert print service and awesome customer service. Our standard scaffold banner material is a flame-retardant rip-stop PVC banner, and we make our wind-reducing banners from windproof mesh banner material. We finish our Scaffolding Banners with heavy-duty hems, metal eyelets, and sturdy welded pockets as standard. Our high production expertise and finishing specifications are crucial to the lifespan of a scaffold banner; we have seen many scaffolding advertising banners from other suppliers fade within weeks or rip themselves from fixings in high winds. PVC Banners are very cost-effective to install on scaffolds, as are Mesh Banners.

Scaffold Banner Material Specification

Our Standard PVC Scaffold Banners are made from our tried and tested 500gsm Rip-Stop PVC, which can be printed single-sided in full colour. The extra strength in this material reduces the stress caused by weather conditions on scaffolding. Heavy-duty scaffold banner material gives extra durability. Your scaffold banners will last longer and look better for longer than cheaper materials used by other suppliers.

We make our Premium Scaffolding Banners from our almost indestructible 650gsm Blockout PVC, which can be printed on both sides and used for double-sided scaffolding banners. This super-strong banner material has an extra block liner in the middle of the banner, making sure that no light can pass through.

We recommend Larger Scaffolding Banners to use our Mesh PVC materials. Tiny holes in this material allow wind to pass through and reduce wind load on scaffolding structures. Standard Mesh has a 70/30 print surface-to-hole ratio, while our AirMesh PVC has a more open weave to allow even more air to pass through.

Mesh also has the advantage of letting light through into the building behind.

All our scaffold banner materials are flame retardant, waterproof and weather resistant. We print using fade-proof inks to ensure your banners remain vibrant and visible even in exposed locations.
Please contact us if you have any special requirements for your scaffold banners such as odd shapes or specific finishing instructions. We’re always glad to advise and help.

Pole pockets on Scaffold banners

Our most popular finish on PVC scaffold banners is pole pockets. High-quality Scaffold banners require quality finished Pole Pockets designed to provide the perfect finish for your scaffold banners. Pole pockets are the most popular choice among our customers, as they are designed to fit easily through scaffolding tubes. With a pocket size of 150mm, you can rest assured that there is plenty of room for your scaffold pole to slide through, ensuring a secure and stable fit for your banner.

At Banner World, we understand the importance of durability and longevity for your scaffold banners. That’s why we have ensured that our pole pockets are oversized to prevent any tension on the weld that could lead to tearing or ripping. We recommend allowing 200mm for a 150mm pole pocket to accommodate the flat pocket size and banner weld.

For those looking for extra strength and durability, we also offer reinforced pockets. These pockets have additional stitching over the weld, making them super strong and long-lasting. Our reinforced pockets are the perfect solution for investing in a high-quality scaffold banner that will stand the test of time.

To provide even more stability for your scaffold banner, we also offer eyelets in each corner of the seam of the pole pockets. These eyelets are perfect for tying your banner in position, ensuring it stays in place even in windy conditions.

Overall, our Scaffold Banner Pole Pockets are the perfect choice for anyone looking for a high-quality finish for their scaffold banners. With their durable design and easy-to-use features, you can rest assured that your banner will look great and stay secure for years.

Scaffold Banner Finishing

We finish our Typical Scaffold Banners with any combination of welded/stitched hems, secure metal eyelets and pole pockets – included in the price.
We can advise on the best finishing options for your scaffold banners, based on their dimensions and location.

Larger scaffold banners benefit from ‘omega tunnels’ or ‘dragon tail flaps’, which are we attach to the reverse of the banner. These allow the banner to fix onto vertical scaffold poles at regular spacings.

Scaffolding Banner Installation

Smaller Scaffold Banners can be specified with sleeve pockets top and bottom through which you can slide scaffold poles. Adjusting the gap between the poles allows you to tension the banner and prevent it from flapping around and being damaged.

Larger scaffold banners are best finished with hems and eyelets, allowing you to fix them to an oversized scaffold frame using bungee cord or shock cord. Shock cord should be threaded through the holes in short sections and tied off. Avoid using cable ties or standard rope as these do not offer any ‘give’ during wind gusts.

Please ask if you require assistance with setting up your artwork.

Scaffolding Banner Design Tips

Get your banner size right. You can design your banner at actual size or to scale, depending on the software you use. Ensure that your final print file will scale up in proportion to the size of banner you have ordered.

Allow for Eyelets and Pole Pockets in your design

Ensure that no critical information is within 100mm of the edge of your banner design, this allows room for eyelets, hems and other finishing options. Background images and graphics are excellent, be wary of text, numbers and logos.

Standard scaffolding pole diameter is 55mm; you will need a 150mm flat pocket. In your artwork, you should allow for a 190mm ‘safe area’, clear of any critical information.

Set your artwork to CMYK

Set your artwork to CMYK, as this matches the print process. If your artwork is in RGB mode, the colours may not come out as expected. If you have any questions, please ask.

Colour Matching

Colour matching to Pantone references is possible, but may take longer and will incur an extra charge. Files including Pantone® colours will be converted to CMYK unless you specify a colour match in your order. Colour matching is never 100% guaranteed, but we will try and gain the nearest match.

Design Principles

Scaffolding Banners are first and foremost, an advertising and information medium. The information displayed should be clear to read – so consider how far away your target audience will be. If your banner is being viewed from a distance, then the contrast should be high, and typefaces need to be legible. If you try to cram too much information onto a banner then the text may end up too small to read!

You should also consider the objective of your scaffold banner. Is it to promote a brand, generate enquiries, advertise an event, publish a message, or for something else?

Consider including a QR Code in your design that can be scanned by people looking for more information. A QR Code on a scaffold banner can redirect people to any social media page, web page or app of your choice to provide an additional marketing push.
