Which is the best banner stand?
We get asked this question more than any other. The correct question should be "Which is the best banner stand for my needs." Banner stands are like new cars – all new cars carry you from one place to the other. Some do it with more style, more featues, better fit and finish, etc..

The same is true for banner stands. They all present your message on a carefully designed banner. They all work about the same way. But as in cars, they do differ in cost, features and quality of material used. We offer several models because one or two cannot fill everyones needs. At the top of the scale is our family of BannerUp Plus stands. Available in 2,3,4 and 5 foot widths, these stands offer featues like interchangable graphics, custom lighting, varible banner height, adjustable banner tension and stronger internal parts. But, just like everyone does need a Mercedes, not everyone needs an almost $800 banner stand. Many people use these stands a couple times a year, the rest of the year the stands sit in a closet. Some people need to carry these stands around with them, so a very small, lightweight stand is what they need. Our BRB2 stand fills this need very nicely, at a much lower price point, but it does not offer some of the features of the BannerUp Plus. The BRB2 achieves this small profile by using a rotating stabilizing foot to steady the stand when set up. Some folks prefer a stand that does not use such a foot, in which case the wider base of the Mercury works well for them. Need a two sided stand? Take a look at the Gemini or BRB2 double-sided stand. We suggest you take a few momenst to look the specification of each of our stands and compare pricing to see which stand means the best value to you!

Graphic Banners used in the stands

The banners we install in our stands are the same - no matter if you are getting our value-priced BRB2 or the top-of-the-line BannerUp Plus. We offer two versions of banner in all our stands. Our Standard banner is great for most light duty users of banner stands. It is printed on a polypropylene film and then coated with a lustre finish smooth overlamiante. Our Deluxe banner is designed for more heavy duty users, or for those who want a little more protection on their banner. These are printed on a white polyester film and then coated with a scuff and fingerprint resistant over-laminate. This scuff resistance is necessary in long term use in retractable banner stands because the constant up and down movement of the banner causes small scuff marks over a long period of time

Our new BRBexpo uses a digitally printed fabric banner. Fabrics have a softer look which makes it perfect for some products/services, but maybe not for others. Other features of fabric banners is they tend to lay flatter with much less edge curl than lamianted banners, and they weigh less.
