Overview
Vinyl banners are the workhorse of promotional signage — fast turnaround, low material cost, high visual impact. What separates a banner that lasts a season from one that fails on day three is the spec: weight (13oz is the standard, 18oz for high-wind installs), edge finishing (hemmed and reinforced), grommets (every 18 inches on commercial work), and ink rated for outdoor UV.
Our banner portfolio runs the full size range. Small grand-opening banners at 3ft × 6ft. Mid-size sale banners at 6ft × 20ft. Building banners at architectural scale — like the multi-story 'Welcome Huskies!' and 'You're in Huskie Country' installations on NIU's campus brick facades.

Our process
How CorPro produces and installs vinyl banners & building banners.
- 01
Spec + size
We confirm size, hanging method (grommets, pole pockets, building anchors), and lifespan needed — and spec the right banner material for the install.
- 02
Design + proof
Most banners proof in a day. For volume orders (25+ same-size), we proof one design and apply to the batch.
- 03
Print + finish
Printing on wide-format equipment, hemmed edges, grommet install on every 18 inches. Building-scale banners get engineered reinforcement at every mounting point.
- 04
Delivery or install
Smaller banners ship or get picked up. Building-scale or pole-mount work gets installed by our lift-equipped crew.
