Indoor vs Outdoor Banner Printing Guide
Choosing the right type of banner comes down to one thing: where it’s going. Here’s how to get it right.

Start with this question: Where’s it going?
Your banner’s going to live in one of two worlds — indoors or outdoors. Sounds obvious, but it matters. Each environment calls for different materials, finishes, and design choices. Get it wrong, and you’re wasting money. Get it right, and it looks sharp for weeks (or months).
