If the banner is placed in a spot where it tends to get fairly windy the banner could wear and tear quicker than normal.
Are the street banners double sided?
Yes, our street banners have a full color print on both sides of the banner. Keep in mind you need to provide a 2" solid color or white border around the edge of the graphics to accommodate for the hems, this guarantees that the graphics will match on both sides so when it get's hemmed you won't have a miss-matched hem on the reverse side.

We accept CMYK, RGB, Mixed colors and Pantone colors. We use a 4-color process, and each color profile will be converted to meet the original coloring as closely as possible.
