Retractable Banners

What are Retractable Banners?

Retractable banners provide maximum portability by pulling out of and retracting into a sturdy aluminum stand or base. This feature makes them the ultimate signage solution for trade shows, events, and conferences.

Also known as pull-up banners, these signages can be printed on 13 oz. smooth vinyl or UV fabric. Choose from our premium and deluxe options. These include an adjustable pole, which allows you to set the display height with ease — or go for our standard banner with a fixed-height pole.

Each banner comes with a padded carrying case that makes storage and travel a breeze. Optional LED display lights are also available to complete your display.

With professional-quality printing, durability, portability, and ease of use, our retractable banners are sure to make a lasting impression and turn your next trade show or event into your best one yet. These banners are designed to withstand years of use and can last for many events and years to come.


Fast and Easy Set Up: How to Install Your Retractable Banner

It only takes a minute or two to set up your retractable banner. The only assembly needed is removing everything from the carrying case, locking the pole, pulling the banner out of the aluminum base, and then attaching it to the support pole. If you purchase a display light, you can attach it to the top of the stand/banner and you’ll have a professional pop-up banner in just a few minutes. Reverse the process, and you’re walking out of the show with your banner in its carrying case.


STEP1 STEP2 STEP3 STEP4 STEP5

  • Step 1: Begin the setup by removing the banner’s base and poles from the carrying case.

  • Step 2: Assemble the pole(s) by connecting the two ends, sliding the sleeve of the top piece over the narrower end of the bottom piece like you would a tent pole.

  • Step 3: Insert the bottom of the pole(s) into the base’s hole(s). Ensure that the bottom of the pole(s) firmly touches the bottom of the base’s hole(s).

  • Step 4: Carefully pull out the banner from the retractable base and attach the rung of the banner to the top of the pole(s).

  • Step 5: Extend the adjustable top half of the pole(s) to the required height for your banner. Twist the pole clockwise to lock the height into place. If you are setting up the deluxe retractable banner, you will have to carefully pull out the back side of the banner and attach the top rung to the mounting clips at the top of the pole.

Aluminum Bases for Retractable Banners

Standard Aluminum Base
Standard Aluminum Base

Our standard retractable banners are an affordable way to put up a great-looking banner. The base is made of aluminum and it has stabilizing feet that swing perpendicular to the base and support the banner once installed. These feet can swing parallel to the base for compact and easy traveling.

Premium Aluminum Base
Premium Aluminum Base

Our premium pull-up banners have a base that adds a professional touch to your display. The premium base stabilizes without any supporting feet like our standard base. It also has chrome end caps to make your banner stand look sophisticated.

Deluxe Aluminum Base

Our deluxe pop-up banners are the best way to show off your company’s brand and offering. Like our premium base, the deluxe base features sleek chrome end caps and stabilizes without rotating feet. Additionally, it’s the only banner to feature double-sided printing.


Looking for Double-sided Retractable Banners?

Double Sided Retractable Banners

Our deluxe retractable banners are double-sided, making them suitable for trade shows, hallways, receptions, and other areas where you need bidirectional visibility.


These banners use the same support pole as our single-sided banners. A rail is attached to the top edge of each banner, which rests on the hook at the top of the pole system. With our deluxe option, you can print the same design on both sides or a different design on each side.

Caring for Your Retractable Banners

Caring for Your Retractable Banners

Assuming the setup and removal are done correctly, your retractable banner requires little to no care and maintenance. Retracting the banner into the aluminum base will protect the material (fabric or vinyl) from potential damage between uses. Furthermore, storing your stand, pole, and light within the padded case should prevent damage between uses. Stains can either be wiped away with a damp cloth (vinyl and fabric) or laundered under extreme circumstances (fabric only), as explained in more detail in our FAQ section.

When displaying and taking down your retractable banner, do so with care. Slowly pull out and retract the graphic in and out of the base while maintaining the graphic centered on the base. Don’t let the graphic rapidly retract or snap back into the base, whether centered or uncentered. Doing so may cause permanent damage to your graphic and/or base. Carefully install the pole to the base and top of the graphic. Mishandling the pole or using of it beyond its intended purpose may cause permanent damage, and may render the banner unusable.

Q:
What dpi (dots per inch) or ppi (pixels per inch) is this printed at? The template "RetractableBannerStandard-33x81-14324.eps" shows 72 dpi, which seems low? I'm used to 150 for retractable banner. Thank you.
Asked a month ago by paula.frederick@nelsons.com
A:

For large format products, we require the resolution to be at least 150 dpi and the size of the artwork should match the size of the order. Also, kindly upload a file with CMYK colors; this way we can follow the artwork as closely as possible to the original design.

Q:
I purchased this for a single-use event. Can I reuse these bases with new graphics and refill these?
Asked 2 months ago by Amy P.

Yes, you can refill those and order just the banner. Make sure to choose the correct size or be the same as the last size you ordered. You can order the material under vinyl banners. This is the same material we use for retractable banners.

Q:
Is price for multiple quantity based on a single design or if I order 4 Banners, can I have 4 different designs for the price listed?
Asked 6 months ago by Jacalyn H.
A:

The printing we do is charged per design. So If you have 4 designs that would be 4 items in an order.

Q:
Can you adjust the height on these retractable banners?
Asked 10 months ago by Melissa
A:

Both premium and deluxe retractable banners can be adjusted to be as short as 70" in height as the support pole is telescopic in nature. Alternatively, the standard banners have a fixed height of 81" and the supporting pole isn't able to be adjusted to a different height.

Q:
Do I use RGB or CMYK for Retractable Banner files?
Asked 10 months ago by Ash
A:

All full-color artwork and/or images must be saved in CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) color mode, while black and white artwork and/or images must be in grayscale color mode. Files submitted in RGB or Pantone color mode will be automatically converted to CMYK. Converting these to CMYK may cause a shift in color since they are not from the same color spectrum.

Q:
I have a retractable banner already. Can you print me a new 33" x 81" vinyl banner? Just the banner, I can replace it in the mechanism I already own.
Asked 10 months ago by Bill
A:

Absolutely, you're welcome to order a banner of the same size that will fit your existing stand. However, we kindly ask you to note that we cannot be held liable for any damages incurred during installation. If you need any guidance or assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to help ensure a smooth and successful setup process for you.
