Hear from Our Customers
You need signage that makes people stop and look. Not something that screams “cheap” from across the parking lot.
Your custom banners should pull double duty—catching attention while building trust in your brand. When someone sees your banner at a trade show, storefront, or event, they’re making split-second judgments about your business quality.
That’s where professional banner printing makes the difference. Sharp graphics that stay vibrant. Materials that don’t curl, fade, or embarrass you after a few months. Designs that actually match your brand instead of looking like they came from a template factory.
We understand what Mettawa businesses need—professional signage that works in our climate and connects with local customers. We’ve been helping Illinois businesses stand out with quality custom banners that deliver results.
You’re not just another order number here. We know the difference between a banner for a Lake County trade show and one that needs to survive a Chicago winter outdoors.
Every project gets our personal attention because your success matters to our community. When your business thrives, Mettawa thrives.
First, we talk about what you actually need. Not what we want to sell you, but what makes sense for your goals, timeline, and budget. Whether it’s retractable banners for trade shows or weather-resistant vinyl for outdoor promotions.
Next, our design team creates mockups that match your brand. We handle the technical stuff—bleed areas, resolution, color matching—so your banner looks exactly like you envisioned.
Then we print using professional-grade equipment and materials. No corners cut on ink quality or substrate durability. Your banner gets the same attention whether you’re ordering one or fifty.
Finally, we deliver on time. Rush jobs get rushed without sacrificing quality. Standard orders arrive when promised. You get exactly what you approved, when you need it.
Ready to get started?
Retractable banners for trade shows and presentations. These portable units set up in seconds and travel easily. Perfect for businesses that need professional displays at multiple locations.
Vinyl banners for storefronts, events, and outdoor advertising. Weather-resistant materials that handle Illinois seasons without fading or tearing. Available in any size your space requires.
Custom promotional banners for sales, grand openings, and special events. Eye-catching designs that drive traffic and create urgency. Materials chosen based on your specific use case and environment.
Mettawa businesses choose us because we understand local needs. Your banner for a summer festival needs different materials than one hanging in your lobby year-round.
Standard turnaround is 3-5 business days from design approval. Rush orders can be completed in 24-48 hours for an additional fee.
The timeline depends on banner complexity and current workload. Simple text banners print faster than complex graphics with multiple colors. We’ll give you an exact timeline when you place your order.
Most Mettawa businesses find our standard turnaround works perfectly for planned events. For last-minute needs, call us directly—we’ll work with your deadline whenever possible.
13oz vinyl with UV-resistant inks handles Illinois weather best. This material resists fading, tearing, and wind damage through multiple seasons.
For temporary outdoor use (under 6 months), 10oz vinyl costs less and performs well. For permanent installations or harsh weather exposure, we recommend 15oz vinyl with reinforced hems and grommets.
Indoor banners can use lighter materials like fabric or standard vinyl. We’ll recommend the right material based on your specific location and expected banner lifespan.
Yes, our design team creates custom layouts that match your brand guidelines. We handle everything from concept to final artwork.
If you have existing logos and brand materials, we’ll incorporate them seamlessly. No brand guidelines? We’ll work with you to create a professional look that represents your business well.
Design revisions are included until you’re completely satisfied. Most clients approve designs after 1-2 rounds of minor adjustments.
Standard retractable banners come in 33″x81″, 39″x81″, and 47″x81″ sizes. These fit most trade show spaces and presentation needs.
Tabletop retractable units measure 11″x17″ or 8″x10″—perfect for smaller displays or counter presentations. Premium stands offer wider formats up to 63″ wide.
We’ll help you choose the right size based on your display space and viewing distance. Larger isn’t always better—readability matters more than maximum size.
Pricing depends on size, material, and quantity. Basic vinyl banners start around $3-5 per square foot. Retractable banner stands range from $150-400 including graphics.
Volume discounts apply for multiple banners or repeat orders. Rush fees add 25-50% to standard pricing depending on timeline requirements.
We provide detailed quotes upfront with no hidden fees. What you approve is what you pay—no surprises when you pick up your order.
Absolutely. Quality materials and proper care extend banner life significantly. Retractable banners travel easily and set up hundreds of times without wear.
Vinyl banners with reinforced edges and quality grommets handle repeated hanging and storage. Avoid folding—roll banners for storage to prevent permanent creases.
Many Mettawa businesses use the same promotional banners for years. Seasonal messages or evergreen branding content works well for repeated use across multiple events and locations.
