Step and Repeat Banner Printing

Corners go first, which keeps it level, then the rest of the eyelets along the top and bottom edges. Pull each fixing just firm enough to take up the slack without stretching the backdrop. Cable ties, bungees and rope all work; bungees have a bit of stretch, useful for solid PVC on a windy railing. Check it again after the first gusty day and replace anything that has snapped. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80.

Just the print. Choose the PVC version and it arrives hemmed with eyelets, ready to tie onto poles, a truss, a wall or a frame you already have. Measure what you are hanging it on and pick the matching size, or type in the exact measurements you need. If you want something that stands up on its own, our pop-up stands and fabric displays are worth a look. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80.

Set up the first size, type how many you need next to Add to basket, then go back and set up the next size as another line. Every price you see is for one backdrop, and the quantity box does the multiplying. Paying for artwork? It is charged once per line, not per item, and the option to reuse artwork from another basket item adds no second fee. For big numbers, ask on our Get a quote page. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80.

The only thing that can join the goods price is delivery; the price you see is the price you pay at checkout. Delivery anywhere on the UK mainland is £7.95 an order, and it costs nothing once the goods come to £100 or more after any discount code (design and artwork fees are not counted). If you pick a paid design option, it sits in the basket as a separate line with its own fee, so every penny is listed before you pay. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80.

Yes. One is enough, and you do not need a business name or an account to check out. The opening price is £108.80, and any bank card will do. At £108.80 the opening price is already over £100, so mainland delivery costs nothing. A person still checks your file before it is printed, just as for a big order. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

Work back from the day you need them. Express takes 1 working day to get Step and Repeat Banners out, against 5 on Saver, and costs £144.99 on the opening option rather than £108.80. Add up to three working days for the courier, plus any time you need to finish the file. Cutting it fine? Put your date in the question box before you order.

The whole UK is covered. Outside it, sadly, we cannot deliver. Mainland addresses in the Highlands pay one extra £10 on the order, even when delivery would otherwise be free. For Northern Ireland, and for the Channel Islands, the Scottish islands, Scilly, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man, we tell you the delivery cost before you pay, so message us your postcode on the Contact page or our Get a quote page. Choose Saver and these backdrops leave us after 5 working days; Express brings that down to 1. The biggest sizes of these backdrops go by specialist courier, which adds £15 once to the order.

A PDF made at the size you ordered works best, with the fonts embedded or turned into outlines. AI, EPS and SVG are fine too, as are high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF images. Word, PowerPoint or Canva designs can be used, but save them out as a full quality PDF where you can. Attach up to 3 files of up to 25 MB each on the product page, or order first and send them afterwards; we email you a link. If you have no file, you can build the design for these backdrops in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering. Material choices for Step and Repeat Banners: 400gsm PVC-free banner or 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets.

Roughly 15,748 pixels across and 9,843 down for a 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm) design, which is 100 dpi. That is plenty for something people read from a few metres away; anywhere from 100 to 150 dpi at full size will do. Text and logos are safest as vector art, which never goes fuzzy. Pictures saved from a website or social media are nearly always too small, and our file check will point out any that could print blurred. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm).

Yes. Order printing with an online design and a full resolution PDF comes with it; after payment you can download it from your confirmation email or from My Account. Just want the file? Finish the design and buy the print-ready PDF on its own for £9.99. As digital content, it cannot be cancelled once the download begins.

PVC-free is a 400gsm material with no PVC in it at all. It prints in the same full colour and is well suited to indoor displays, shops, exhibitions and short-term jobs. If it is going outside for a long time, or somewhere with a lot of wind, the 440gsm PVC or mesh stands up better. Both are priced on the page, so you can check the same size in each material before you decide. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80. On its opening option, Step and Repeat Banners leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Flash and strong lights can glint off any smooth print. Keep pale, shiny areas away from the spot behind people's heads, and aim the lights in from an angle, not head-on. Busy or darker designs hide glare better than big plain light areas. Pull it tight when you hang it: creases and ripples stand out far more in pictures than in real life. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80. On its opening option, Step and Repeat Banners leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Yes. Any width between 500 and 6000 mm and any height between 500 and 3000 mm can be entered, and the total changes as you type. For something larger, or a shaped banner, ask us for a price.

Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

Yes. PVC hangs flat and the print comes out crisp, so it suits school halls, church halls, receptions, stage fronts and indoor events. There is also a 400gsm PVC-free material on this product, a good pick for inside if you would rather avoid PVC. Inside you can skip the ties altogether. Hang it by the eyelets from hooks or a length of cord, or use hanging strips that peel off cleanly. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

They make a good stage or photo background, hung on a frame, poles or a wall. Outdoors, look at the fixings again if it turns windy. Order with enough time for the making and the courier before the event. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Sizes for these backdrops go from 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm), 5 in all.

Make sure it is bone dry and clean, then roll it up loosely with the print on the outside, round a cardboard tube if one is handy. Try not to fold it, because sharp folds leave creases and the ink can crack along them. Snip off old cable ties before rolling so they do not press marks into the print, and store the roll in a dry cupboard well clear of radiators. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80. On its opening option, Step and Repeat Banners leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Every order gets a confirmation email listing what was bought, the options chosen and the amount paid, and a club, school or small firm can file that as its record of payment. What you pay for these backdrops is the price shown on the page plus any delivery charge, nothing more. If your accounts need a particular kind of invoice, ask through the Contact page before you order and we will tell you what we can provide. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80.

Yes. There is a guest checkout, so a one-off order does not need a login. Payment is by debit or credit card, processed by Stripe. The confirmation email that follows lists everything bought and what was paid, which helps when you claim the money back from the group. What the page shows is what the group pays, plus any delivery. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80.

Our Get a quote page is the place, and it also handles delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands.

Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

One checkout covers the lot. Add a basket line for every design, attach the right file to each, then pay once. You pay a single delivery charge of £7.95 for the whole order, or nothing if the goods add up to £100 or more. Repeating one design on another line? Choose the artwork choice that points to a file already in the basket, and no second design fee is charged.

Not for a change of mind. These backdrops are made for your order, and goods made to your specification fall outside the 14-day cancellation right (reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). You can still cancel and get all your money back before production begins. Anything faulty, damaged or wrong is covered by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, and we reprint it or refund you. Sizes for these backdrops go from 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm), 5 in all.

No. Guest checkout is fine, and card payments go through Stripe, so a debit card or a credit card both work. If you choose to open an account while checking out, My Account keeps your past orders and the print files of anything you designed online. Guest or not, you get an email confirming the order and another with tracking once it is sent. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

You pay by debit or credit card when you check out, and you can do it as a guest without making an account. Card details are handled by Stripe, a specialist payment company, so the full card number never reaches us or sits on our system. Printing starts after payment goes through and your file has been checked. If your group needs a price agreed before anyone pays, ask for a quote instead. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

Look everything over when it arrives. If something is damaged or missing, contact us within 48 hours through the contact form, with your order number and photos of both the item and the packaging. Please keep hold of it until we reply; we then sort out a reprint or a refund. Your legal rights stay the same, as the returns page sets out. The biggest sizes of these backdrops go by specialist courier, which adds £15 once to the order. Choose Saver and these backdrops leave us after 5 working days; Express brings that down to 1.

Yes. Line the logos up along the bottom or in a row, keep them all a similar size so nobody feels left out, and hold them 50 mm in from the edges. Short of time? Our typesetting service (£15) or a design worked up from your notes (£35) can put it together for you, with one first draft and two rounds of changes. If a sponsor only has a blurry logo, we can rebuild it for £30. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm). On its opening option, Step and Repeat Banners leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Very close, but not always identical. A screen glows, print reflects light, so a small difference is normal. Sending CMYK artwork keeps it nearest; RGB is changed to CMYK before printing and the brightest greens, blues and oranges can look a touch flatter. For an exact brand colour, give us the Pantone reference and we get as close as the material allows. If you have no file, you can build the design for these backdrops in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering.

No. A person on our team checks every file for size, bleed and resolution and tells you in plain words if anything needs changing. The free online designer also warns you about small text and blurry images before you finish. Or pick typesetting for £15 and we lay out your words and logo for you, with a first draft and two rounds of changes. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm).

Spelling is the one thing it cannot judge, so read that yourself. It does catch placeholder words nobody changed, tiny lettering, anything drifting beyond the safe area or near the trim, blurry logos and photos, and objects covering words. Issues that would spoil the print stop you finishing until they are sorted; lighter warnings you may choose to accept. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm). Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

Yes. The online designer is free to use, so you can build the design, look at it on screen and share it round before anyone commits. The preview carries a watermark on screen only; it never appears on the printed item. When everyone is happy, finish the design and order. What you see is what gets printed, so check names, dates and numbers together first. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm).

A bowl of warm water with a drop of gentle washing-up liquid and a soft sponge or cloth is all you need. Rinse with clean water afterwards and let it dry, hanging up or laid flat. Keep away from solvents, scouring pads and pressure washers, as they can strip the ink or scuff the surface. Only roll it up once it is completely dry, otherwise it may mark or start to smell. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner.
