We get a lot of phone calls from customers who want to place orders for our best selling budget roller banner stands but have been burned by purchasing similar looking products from other suppliers that ultimately turn out to be poor quality and generally unfit for purpose.

One of the biggest issues that comes up when talking to such customers is whether or not our displays stand up straight rather than leaning forwards. I have personally seen many such banner stands in use in shopping centre’s, retail units and exhibition halls and frankly they look terrible!

Budget banner stands are, (as the name suggests) made to a budget but the problem is that in an effort to reduce costs some manufacturers radically cut-down on the thickness of the metal used in the banner stand and this makes then very flimsy indeed.

The pole of a banner stand usually fits through a hole in the top of the casing and locates into another hole or cut out so the pole in anchored at two points to maintain a vertical angle. When the banner itself is pulled-up and hooked over the pole at the top of the stand, the downward force of the spring-loaded base pulling on the print can cause the pole or the base itself to distort under load. It is this distortion of the supporting framework that causes the dreaded leaning banner stand effect!

As a rule of thumb, you can instantly assess the quality of a banner stand by checking the weight of it. There are some suppliers who are advertising economy/budget banner stands weighing around 2KG and that is extremely light indeed!

In our experience, anything less than 3KG on an 800/850mm banner stand is hit and miss so we do not sell such lightweight mechanisms. Banner stands that weigh less than this are generally sold with a cheap poly propylene or very thin non-block out PVC print because they are not physically capable of supporting the weight of a thick print material.

Our stands weigh in at 3.8KG. We believe that they are the best value roller banner sold in the UK. We were one of the first companies to make banner stands affordable and have been selling them since 1999. We are often imitated which can be seen by the number of companies who model both their product lines and web prices on our own but the quality of the products we supply is second to none.

If you are contemplating purchasing an economical banner stand then please consider our budget banner stand that represents unbeatable value!

Weather in the UK can be unpredictable at the best of times, and with many conferences and exhibitions planned outdoors for the summer months, it is best to be prepared with the appropriate exhibition stands. Print Designs are a company specialising in providing digital printing and portable presentation solutions, and their unique and high-quality selection of outdoor banner stands can be used to combat the toughest of weather conditions and truly make an impact, even in the midst of ‘Monsoon May’.

To make a lasting impression on everyone at a conference or exhibition, the Horizon Banner Stand, standing head and shoulders above the rest, is surely an ideal choice. Measuring in at a majestic 2.4m tall and 2.5m wide, the stand is created specifically to withstand light to moderate wind; always a risk in Britain. The hollow base is fillable, ensuring the stand remains sturdy and strong in adverse conditions. Customisable graphics are supplied in a tube to keep the banner safe whilst travelling, and Print Designs offer an added optional carry bag to keep the whole stand in great condition. At just £275.00, this imposing banner stand is sure to have an influence over conference participants without having a detrimental effect on the budget.

The Blizzard Banner Stand is the most popular outdoor conference solution at Print Designs, and has a multitude of ways in which to combat unpleasant weather conditions. The base, similar to that of the Horizon Banner Stand, can be filled with sand or water to ensure maximum solidity, and there is the opportunity to choose to have graphics printed onto an innovative mesh material, which allows wind to diffuse more easily and grants viewers a chance to examine the contents of the graphic thoroughly without it moving around distractingly. The stand is compact enough at 800m x 200m to be used in the tightest of spots, and still manages to make a great impression on anyone.

The durable aluminium framework of the Monsoon Banner Stand makes it an ideal choice for promotions and outdoor shows, and its size (available up to 3000mm across) renders it a real eye-catcher. The easy assembly of this stand is perfect for those with little time to set up, and can be deconstructed easily to move onto the next venue in the included carry bag. The stand is recommended for use in wind conditions up to Beaufort scale 5, and extension kits will soon be available, so the opportunities to make a real impression with the Monsoon Banner Stands are endless. Prices start at just £145.00 for a single-sided graphic print.

Here at Printdesigns we work very hard to provide great value, professional display stands at prices that other suppliers simply cannot match without cutting corners. One of most popular products is our budget banner stand which is available to purchase printed from your own artwork for less than £40 plus vat.

With other suppliers selling comparable products for twice the price, one of the first questions we are asked about this product is “what’s wrong with it?”

The answer is……. nothing. We can’t tell you why other suppliers charge so much more for basic banner stands but we can tell you and demonstrate that we sell many thousands of our own budget banner stands annually and get great feedback from happy customers.

If you need a simple, professional roll up banner display for your exhibition, event or conference then why not give us a go. We work exceptionally hard here to provide all our customers large and small with brilliant service and products and unbeatable prices.

Portable Power – Budget Banners

Statistics have shown that 95% of new businesses fail within the first five years of their start up, and one of the biggest factors in this massive failure rate is the relatively poor marketing that some businesses choose. 300,000 businesses are set up every single year, and to ensure that a business does not fall into the unfortunate 95% that fold within 24 months, the correct marketing procedures and standing out from the rest of the saturated market is absolutely vital. Print Designs are a leading supplier of promotional exhibition stands, and are experts at meeting the needs of any company, from a start-up to an established brand. Their Twist Banner Stands are an excellent way to attract attention for all the right reasons at a conference or event, and with guaranteed low prices, they are a no-brainer for those hoping to land in the 5% who succeed.

The portable Twist Banner Stands differ from other traditional banner stands in that they feature a unique levelling system, specifically designed to be able to deal with uneven floor surfaces. A lop-sided banner at a conference does not exactly portray the greatest amount of professionalism, but with these sturdy stands, this problem can be a thing of the past.

The stands are also very versatile; they can be linked together to create full display walls, which catch the eye and ensure that they stand out.  There is the choice of single-sided or double-sided banners, so that they can potentially be viewed from all angles, and the package includes low voltage lighting for professional illumination, and a convenient carry bag to protect the banner when travelling. The CAD team at Print Designs can assist with the design of the high-quality printed graphic, which can then be printed onto any of the four banner sizes available (going up in 100mm increments from 700mm to a majestic 1,000mm).

For those looking to make an even more lasting impression, the Media Twist Banner Stand cleverly integrates a flat screen monitor into the whole display, whilst still offering all of the features that made the original Twist Banner Stand so excellent. The screen enables clients to show moving images and offers a real stand-out feature of an exhibition display. The potential impact this type of banner stand offers is vast, and the outstanding quality and professionalism it portrays is obvious to all.

With basic Twist Banner Stands starting at just £225, and the more advanced Media Twist Banner Stand available for £275, Print Designs’ adaptable, practical and stylish exhibition stands are sure to help all businesses in putting together their marketing strategies.

Reports from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development have stated that the UK is back in recession. The figures show that the economy has been dipping since October last year, with output falling by 0.3% in the last quarter of 2011. The first three months of 2012 have seen a drop of 0.1%, and the figures are a bitter blow to businesses who hoped they might be seeing light at the end of the tunnel that has been the global financial crisis. As a result of these facts coming to light, many companies will now be looking for ways in which they can offer and promote their products and services without denting their own budget too much. One of the UK’s premier suppliers of exhibition stands, Print Designs, has a great range of solutions to up the level of promotion without breaking the bank.

Among the best value banner stands currently on sale in the UK, the products available from Print Designs are quick and easy to assemble, whilst still being sturdy and hardwearing enough to see any business through many conferences and events. The stands are constructed from shells which use aluminium to ensure that the stands will never lean or topple, but will always remain steady and firm. The budget stands on offer are priced so that they are affordable without ever compromising on the high quality that Print Designs has become known for.

In spite of the heavy-duty mechanism and the aluminium used to keep the banner stands on their feet, the budget banner stands are actually very light and easy to transport for one place to another. Many come with a carry bag included with the stand, to give maximum portability and to ensure that the stand and the graphics stay in prime condition, ready to go on display at a moment’s notice. Print Designs offers a fantastic deal on their budget roller banner stands – two for £75, with the option of two matching stands or two separate designs at no added cost. The extremely durable 600gsm material which the graphics are printed onto has no show-through and is an example of Print Designs combining low prices with high quality.

Print Designs has also reduced the price of their Giant Banner Stand, with the 1.5m x 2m exhibition stand available for prices starting at just £186.75 (tax excluded). For businesses looking to save and still attract attention, this stand is ideal; the fast, simple assembly means the stand is ready to go whenever necessary, and the design simply features all the benefits of a regular banner stand, but at a super-size.
