    Roll-up banners

    The thing people read from the other side of the aisle.

    A banner is the only part of a stand that works on somebody who has not stopped walking. Ours carries a code big enough to be read at that distance, pointing at a profile rather than at a URL somebody has to remember and type later.

    Why this one

    A roll-up banner for a stand entrance, a foyer or an exhibition. Scans from a distance, packs into a case.

    Read from across the aisle

    The code is a large share of the banner width on purpose, because a code sized for a business card is decoration at two metres.

    The banner outlives the event

    Point the code at something else and the autumn banner works at the spring show. The cassette, the pole and the bag all come with it.

    You find out if the stand worked

    Scans on the banner are counted separately from taps on a staff card, so afterwards the question of what brought people in has an answer.

    What happens if you ask

    Five steps, and you can stop at any of them

    1. Design it, or do not

      Make it in the Design Studio, send us artwork, or let us set it from the profile you already have. None of the three costs anything and none of them commits you.

    2. Tell us what you need

      Size, quantity, and where it is going. About a minute. Those three are what a price depends on, which is why the form asks for them rather than for a paragraph.

    3. A person prices it

      By hand, not by calculator, with the delivery inside the number rather than added later. You get a link to the quote with the specification on it.

    4. You accept it, or you do not

      The quote becomes an order when you accept and pay it, and not before. Nothing is made, and nothing is charged, while you are thinking about it.

    5. It is made and sent

      Made to order and delivered. The code on it stays yours: point it somewhere else next year and the thing you are holding carries on working.

    Why order it here

    Four things a printer cannot say

    A person prices it

    Not a calculator with a margin baked in. Sizes, quantities and finishes change the cost, so somebody looks at what you asked for.

    Delivery is in the number

    Quoted with the item rather than added at a checkout. The figure you accept is the figure you pay.

    Nothing is made until you say so

    A quote is an invitation to buy. It becomes an order when you accept and pay it, and not a moment earlier.

    The code outlives the print

    Point it at something else whenever you like. The printed thing does not have to be reprinted because a number changed.

    Where it goes

    Stand entrances, foyers, conference registration, the corner of a showroom, the back wall of a market stall. Anywhere you get one glance from somebody at walking speed.

    What it is made of

    • Anti-curl polypropylene, cassette base, pole and carry bag.
    • Six widths, all 2m tall.

    What it is not

    It is a printed banner, so it is an indoor thing and it does not enjoy wind. The code is sized generously rather than scan-tested at distance, and the order page says so on the item rather than burying it.

    The code behind it

    Every one of these carries its own code, and the code points at a live profile rather than at a phone number. Change the profile and the printed thing stays correct; point the code somewhere else and it starts doing a different job without being reprinted. Each code keeps its own history, so a set of them tells you which one people used. More on that in how the codes work, and the whole range is on one page.

    If it is for a stand or a show, the events page puts the staff cards, the table stand and the board together in one setup.

    Questions people ask before they fill the form in

    What comes with it?
    The banner, the cassette base it rolls into, the pole and a carry bag. It is one thing to pick up and one thing to put up.
    How big is the code on it?
    A large share of the banner's width, on purpose: a code sized for a business card is decoration at two metres. We size it generously rather than claiming a tested distance we have not measured.
    Can I use the same banner at the next show?
    Yes. Point the code at something else and the autumn banner works in the spring. That is the part that usually gets reprinted and does not have to be.
