If you want to explore adding PVC banners to your product range, or you aren't happy with how your currently producing them, then one thing to think about is your banner hemming tape. It's not a major thing, but it is something that needs some consideration and understanding on how it works.
Banner hemming tape
There are two types of tapes available that we have on offer here at Signmaster. Both are good options and so it's a matter of choice / preference. Let's explore further
Double sided PET tape
This banner hemming tape is 24mm x 50m, it's has a high tack acrylic adhesive and its very strong, when it comes to hemming banners you can definitely rely on it. And it is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. When hand cutting PVC banner, it can help hide any issues with the cutlines. Something that is easily done when you are producing big PVC banners.

Edge-It Tape
Another great option for a banner hemming tape, it is quick to use and also provides you with a strong hem. It's single sided reinforced tape, strong, flexible, suitable for indoor and outdoor use. When using this product, you cut to the artwork and simply apply it to the back edges of your PVC banner which will reduce production time over the double sided tape option above. As you cut to the artwork, you need to ensure your cutting it high quality. To see more about this product click here. You can see how this is applied to a PVC banner in the how to video below.
