Roller banner printing in Leicester
A pull-up banner is the quickest way to put your brand at head height at a trade stand, reception desk or shop counter. Our standard 850mm by 2000mm roller banner starts from £39 including a padded carry case, and it is usually printed and assembled in 2 to 3 working days, with next-day express when an event has crept up on you.
Sizes and stand types
The 850mm width is the one most people picture: narrow enough to sit beside a table on a busy exhibition floor, tall enough to be read from across the hall. When you have more wall to fill, or you want two banners side by side to read as one display, the 1000mm and 1200mm widths give the graphic noticeably more presence without needing a bigger van.
Premium stands start from £59 and use a sturdier base and pole system that copes better with being set up and packed away every week. Double-sided stands suit a banner placed in the middle of a room where people approach from both directions, and outdoor versions are available for forecourts and entrances.

Designing for a banner, not a leaflet
A banner is read in two or three seconds by someone walking past, so it behaves nothing like a leaflet somebody holds in their hand. Put the logo and one clear line at the top third, where eyes land first. Keep the bottom 200mm or so free of anything important, because it sits behind the base or at knee height where nobody looks.
Our designers set text sizes for reading distance and position content inside the visible area of the stand you choose. If you already have artwork, we check it before printing so a phone number does not end up hidden inside the cassette. Graphics are printed on anti-curl material so the edges hang flat rather than rolling inwards under hall lights.
Lifespan, reprints and swapping graphics
The lifespan of a roller banner graphic depends on where and how it is used and stored. Ask us about the stock and mechanism before ordering a replacement. When your prices, branding or offer change, you do not need a whole new stand: we can print a replacement graphic for your existing mechanism at a reduced cost, provided the stand is still in good working order.
For a deeper look at running costs over several events, read our roller banner cost and lifespan guide. If you are exhibiting, the exhibition print checklist covers the leaflets, cards and posters that normally travel with a banner.
A banner stays at the venue while leaflets can leave with visitors. If your event also needs printed flyers, ask for them in the same brief. We can quote leaflet printing and, for a separate local door-to-door campaign, GPS-tracked distribution; a banner itself is not a letterbox item. Keep the artwork for those formats separate because a message read from across a hall needs different detail from one read in somebody's hand.
Ordering and collection
Send us the width, quantity and event date and we will come back with a quote. Banners are dispatched ready to stand up, or you can collect in person from our office at 10 Queen Street, Leicester LE1 1QW, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. Call 01162 161739 if the event is this week and you need to know whether next-day express is realistic.
