How to Decide on the Perfect Pull Up Banners for Toronto Trade Shows

Are you searching for the perfect pull-up banner for your next Toronto trade show? The choices can get overwhelming. Do you need a lower-cost solution with a basic graphic pull up banner? Or perhaps a premium pull up offering additional features and an instant graphic change cartridge?

Fortunately, we can guide you through the various pull up banners and their intended uses.

Let’s look at their differences.

 How to Choose Your Ideal Toronto Trade Show Pull Up Banner

Let’s unpack your options in pull up banners and consider the basics.

 

Functionality

Pull up banners can be a simple accessory to an existing backwall or serve as a primary backwall for use as a trade show display.

The function of your pull up banner will be a major factor in your choice. Premium pull up banners are often offered as an upgrade for experienced Toronto trade show users who understand exactly the features they require.

Also, pull up outdoor banner stands are available for use at outdoor events. They are designed with a heavier base for stability and graphic panels to withstand moisture and rain exposure.

 

Pull Up Banners as a Primary Backwall for the Toronto Trade Show Booth Use

Do you intend to use your pull up banner as your primary display on your backwall in an 8’ or 10’ space?

If you are using it as a primary backwall, are you satisfied with a 59”-wide display in a single unit? Or are you willing to purchase multiple pull up banners side by side to fill an assigned space width?

When choosing a primary backwall, you will be looking first for the widest pull up banner width available as an ideal backwall; in most cases that will be 59”.

 

Pull Up Banners Used as Accessories at Trade Show Booths

When choosing it as an accessory to a primary trade show booth backwall, you can usually choose from the entire line of pull up banners, depending on the suppliers’ offerings.

Remember to check which pull up models offer double-sided printing, especially if you intend to use it near the aisle to catch traffic.

Finally, it is important to understand your options fully. These include basic pull up banners and mid-range upgraded pull up banners. Premium pull up banners are a higher-end option with upgraded features such as variable heights, broad bases, and image replacement cartridges.

 

Budget

When considering your budget in this search, knowing that your most affordable option will be any economy pull-up banner offering is important. These are perfectly functional but are limited to offering just the basic pull up features. Economy pull up banners are excellent value.

 

Logistics

When choosing pull-up banners, handling, transportation, setup, and takedown will be a breeze. You can transport pull up banners in a car, so there will be no added transport cost. Additional costs such as move in, move out, and installation costs levied by the show contract can be avoided. Best of all, you are in control of both setup and takedown when using a pull up banner accessory.

 

Other Factors to Consider

Once you have decided on your pull up banner, you will need to think about the following items in guiding your selected supplier to production of your pull up banners.

 

1. Graphic Content

Most suppliers will offer artwork guidelines and graphic specification templates on their websites for your convenience. Following art guidelines and graphic specs to avoid file rejection on proofing for your approval to print is extremely important. Delays can frustrate everyone when art guidelines for pull up banners are not followed.

 

2. Proofing to Print

Once you have submitted your high-resolution, ready-to-print file, you will be supplied a proof for approval to print. This is your final say on the content and image positioning for your pull up banner, so you must carefully consider this before sending approval to your printer.

Once the pull up banner is completed you will be advised on the status of your order, and it will be shipped to you according to the agreed-upon in-hand date.

 

3. Caring for Your Pull Up Display Banner

Pull up display banners are mechanical by way of the spring-loaded retractable graphic and need to be handled appropriately. Dropping or throwing the pull up banner stand during handling could disrupt the spring-loaded mechanism and damage the pull up display banner. Instructions are always provided by suppliers. Please review this very important information upon receiving your new pull up banner. It is very important for you to understand the spring-loaded functionality for care and use.

 

4. Setting Up Your New Pull Up Banner

Like all displays, there is a proper and improper way to set up a pull up banner. Please review the instruction sheet carefully.

On setup, for example, it is important to pull back on the pole toward you to reach the 80” inch height and easily hook the banner. This video is an excellent example. Videos for most of the popular pull up banners are offered. Please take the time to review them.

 

5. Takedown, Packing Up & Storage

Takedown of your pull up banner is simple, quick, and easy. Careful handling is always emphasized. Like your retractable window blinds at home, allow it to retract slowly into the base. Don’t ever just let go and quickly retract without guiding it. That is sure to damage the spring-loaded base over time.

Storage of your pull up banner at basic room temperatures is recommended. Extreme heat or cold will cause your pull up banner to malfunction. If it has been in a cold car overnight, give it lots of time to warm to room temperature before setting it up.

Pull up banners may be the ideal solution for your business’s Toronto trade show needs. Knowing those needs before you start shopping and taking your time will save you time and wasted expenses in future efforts.
