Banner Material.

Not all banner material is created equal. 13oz from one supplier can be very different in strength and quality than from another. One of the key indicators of quality is Yarn Density. Yarn Density refers to the number of threads of Support Cloth per inch, our banners have 1000 threads per inch, while other materials listed as 13oz only have 500 or fewer. This is enough of a difference to make the banner significantly weaker.
Another difference that is often overlooked is the white point - basically how 'white' the banner is. The whiter the banner, the brighter colors will appear once printed. Cheaper banners have a low white point (grayer). Our banner material has a very high white point, assuring you of getting the brightest most vivid colors for your custom banner.
Hope this helps you choose what kind material you want your custom banner made from.
