Types of Birthday Banners

Vinyl birthday banners are mostly used for outdoor venues because they are the most durable and most likely to hold up under extreme outdoor conditions. Scrim vinyl uses both vertical and horizontal fibres to provide maximum strength and durability under any conditions. A layer of polyester fabric is laminated in a double layer of clear vinyl, providing maximum protection for the design. The fabric layer also makes the banner flexible in breezy conditions. Scrim vinyl is inexpensive but it also has a tendency to curl.

Flat vinyl on the other hand is another type of vinyl that is less likely to curl and is good for applications requiring close-up reading. Flat vinyl offers nice colour saturation but is not suitable for large banners hung with grommets. Another type is mesh vinyl where mesh holes allows breeze to pass through and keeps the banner in place in the windiest conditions. However, the drawback of this type of vinyl is that it allows light to penetrate making it not ideal in situations that utilize backlighting.
