Poly Knit Fabric - this is a more and less stretch type. Often used at trade shows the more stretchy are used for tables while the others are hanged from the ceiling.
Poly Satin Fabric - these fabric is quite different and one reason is because it wrinkles easily. They are very much canvas like materials.
Mesh Banners - these are often used in construction. They are typically used to set up boundaries to signify caution to others. With lots of hole in them, they are great for high wind areas. Instead of getting a bowing effect, the air will pass through and keep your sign readable.
Vinyl Banners - also known as PVC. Polyvinyl banners are the most popular style today. They are recognized as being highly durable! They can be used both inside and out and are rather affordable. Vinyl comes in different levels of finish, commonly gloss and matte. Gloss is usually used outside. Another selling point is that they are extremely light weight.
