Custom Fabric Banner Printing
Our custom fabric banners are printed on soft, matte 7 oz polyester using dye-sublimation — a process that infuses ink directly into the fibers of the fabric rather than sitting on top of it. The result is a lightweight, wrinkle-resistant banner with rich, photo-quality color and a smooth, glare-free finish that's ideal for indoor displays, trade shows, church lobbies, retail backdrops and stage settings.
Helpful Resources
Choose Your Fabric Banner Material
All fabric banners are dye-sublimation printed for deep, fade-resistant color that becomes part of the material itself — not a surface coating that can crack, peel or scratch off.
Matte Fabric (7 oz)
A lightweight, opaque polyester with a soft matte finish. Wrinkle-resistant and easy to fold or roll for travel, it's built for indoor environments where a premium, non-glare presentation matters.
Fabric Banner Sizes & Orientation
Available from 1' x 1' up to 9' x 30'. Choose Landscape (horizontal: H x W) or Portrait (vertical: W x H) orientation, and print Single-Sided or Double-Sided depending on how your banner will be viewed.
Need a custom banner size that isn't listed? Select the next size up and note your exact dimensions in the design instructions — we'll trim it to spec at no extra charge.
Sizing tolerance: finished dimensions may vary by up to 1 inch on small format banners, or up to 10% on large format banners.
Finishing Options
- Grommets & Hemming — Sewn hems with rust-resistant metal grommets placed every few feet for hanging, included at no extra charge. Grommets are placed 1.5" from the fabric's cut line.
- Hemming Only — Reinforced sewn edges without grommets.
- None — Raw cut edge, no finishing.
- Pole Pockets (optional) — Sewn pole pockets available on the top, bottom, top & bottom, or both sides.
- Pantone Color Match (optional) — Match a specific Pantone color for brand consistency. Provide your Pantone number in the design instructions.
Safe zone: keep all important artwork, text, and logos at least 2" inside the edge on fabric banners so nothing is covered by the grommets.

Artwork & Design
Have print-ready art? Upload it directly during checkout — we recommend vector files, or high-resolution raster images (at least 150 DPI at full size) for the sharpest results. Starting from scratch or need a template to build to the correct bleed and safe area for your size? Download one from our artwork templates page linked above; we offer sized, print-ready templates with bleed and layout guides built in for every product we sell. Once you order, our design team reviews your artwork and sends a digital proof, typically within 24 hours, with unlimited revisions before anything goes to print. You can also design online using our built-in customizer, or hire one of our designers if you'd rather we build it for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What's the difference between a fabric banner and a vinyl banner?
- Fabric banners use dye-sublimation printing on a soft 7 oz polyester, giving you a lightweight, matte, glare-free finish that's easy to fold and travel with. Vinyl banners use a heavier, stiffer material better suited to outdoor and high-wear installations. For outdoor use, see our Custom Vinyl Banners.
- Are fabric banners good for indoor use only?
- Yes, our matte 7 oz fabric is designed for indoor environments — trade shows, stages, lobbies and retail displays — where its soft finish and portability are the main advantages.
- Will my fabric banner wrinkle when folded for storage?
- The 7 oz matte polyester is wrinkle-resistant, so it travels and stores well, though we recommend hanging it for a day before an event if it's been folded for an extended period.
- Do I need grommets on my fabric banner?
- Grommets are the standard way to hang a fabric banner with rope, zip ties or S-hooks, and they're included at no extra charge with our Grommets & Hemming finishing option. If you're mounting to a frame or pole instead, Pole Pockets or Hemming Only may suit you better.
- How accurate is the finished size of my banner?
- Finished dimensions may vary by up to 1 inch on small format banners, or up to 10% on large format banners.
