PVC Banners

Digitally printed PVC flags.

For flags and fabric banners requiring colour photographic images, very detailed line art and other complex graphics, 'dye sublimation' or direct to fabric digital printing is an impressive option. It enables the reproduction of high-resolution artwork and is economical for small runs.

It is ideally suited to producing banners, especially for indoor use where high quality fabric signage is unbeatable.

Flagmakers Polyknit, Polybunting or Ice Satin fabrics can be used, and these are printed in Single Sided, Colour-through and Double Sided print qualities., depending on the product.
Flagmakers dye sublimation digitally printed flags and banners are made on expensive, highly sophisticated and up to date equipment, operated by skilled technicians. The results have won several printing awards for quality, and are among the best available anywhere in the world.

Despite its sophistication,digital printing is not without its limitations however, and it is important to understand and acknowledge these. Please refer to the following and feel free to discuss any details further with Flagmakers.

All colours and tones are produced by a mixture of four dye colours (or sometimes 6), printed in small dots. These four "process" colours are cyan, magenta, yellow and black, or "CMYK" (our products are actually printed with both standard and light shades of CMYK to provide superior results). However, precise colour matching (to PMS colours for example) is not always possible.

Computer software and hardware tends to interpret colour information differently, and shades will vary slightly when viewed on different monitors or when printed by different printers etc. They may also differ when digitally printed onto fabric or other substrates, as this creates more variables. Printing onto different types of fabric may also provide slightly different results.

When colour files are supplied in CMYK format we must use them ‘as is’. We cannot adjust colour levels during the printing process (to counter individual colour variances, for example) as any adjustment will effect the total image.

Tests show that our digitally printed flags and banners perform well when used for exterior use, but like all coloured fabrics, some fading will be inevitable, and some colours/shades will fade more rapidly than others. This can ultimately result in colours becoming less intense, and/or an alteration in the shades. Consequently, as this process can produce literally hundreds of thousands of different shades, colour fastness cannot be accurately predicted.
