Banner Frames

With Summer on the way there are many fetes, county shows, sports events and outdoor marketing events. How do you promote your show or get you company noticed at the show?
Everyone is aware of banners and flags at outdoor shows but how do display banner and flags? Often banners can be displayed on existing structures such as fences or the sided of a tent but when these are not readily available your banners can be displayed using banner frames. These come in many different styles and sizes. Traditional portable banner frames often comprise a steel or aluminium sectional banner frame that uses key clam corner fittings. Fairly lightweight, easy to transport they take a few minutes to put up. These banner frames can be single or double sided and are free standing. If the wind gets up then can be weighted to the ground or ground pegs can be used.
New pop up banner frames are proving popular, smaller but lighter and easy to transport but only suitable for fairly large qualtities of banners. These banner frames are double sided and can be weighted down.
The larger the banner the harder it can be to display if the wind speed increases. For displaying large banners water based banner frames are popular. They have limitations but allow a large eyecatching presence.
