Tips for Displaying 13 Ounce High Tenacity Frontlit Banners to Promote a Sporting Arena

10 December 2020 by Wade Wheeler

The combination of lighting and signage can have a direct impact on how a viewer perceives a newly-constructed feature and this is valid in both an industrial or private setting. If a new football stadium is being built on your school's grounds and you want to highlight the grand opening of the sporting arena, use 13oz high tenacity frontlit banners to prompt students and community members to attend the first sporting event that will be hosted.

1. The Difference Between a Frontlit and Backlit Banner

A frontlit banner is one that light tends to shine on from the front side of the fabric and a backlit banner is one that will have some type of lighting behind the signage. Both types of banners are effective in amplifying the wording or graphics that are displayed on the surface of a banner, but a frontlit banner will not require the installation of lighting beforehand.

With a frontlit banner, you can use independent light sources that are capable of producing direct lighting. A frontlit or a backlit banner can also be used without lighting, but the colors of the lettering and the graphics should complement the fabric field that they are printed on so that people can effectively see what is printed on the signage. 

2. The Popularity of a High Tenacity Banner

Banners that are poorly constructed of lightweight fabric can be used for a short stint, but this type of advertising can become damaged quickly and detract from the overall setting that is being promoted. A 13-ounce high tenacity frontlit banner is one that consists of a vinyl field that weighs 13 ounces per square yard of fabric.

Fabric that has been rated as 13 ounces is not the heaviest fabric on the market, but it is durable enough to withstand precipitation and high winds and can be utilized outdoors, throughout each season of the year. With proper care, this type of signage can last for a couple of years. A frontlit banner can also be used in an indoor setting if something is being promoted and visitors will need to obtain entry to a business to acquire information about the promotion.

A high tenacity banner may contain a coating, which will add a sheen to the fabric and will protect the print from fading. High tenacity banners can be installed independently or supported by framework, such as a metal stand.
