A custom roll-up banner displays a vertical graphic at exhibitions, meetings and customer-service points. When ordering one, clarify whether you need the complete cassette or only a replacement graphic; not every model uses the same dimensions or fixing system.
Before ordering: define the format, intended use and production requirements.
What does a complete roll-up include?
It normally includes a base with a retractable mechanism, a compatible graphic and a support pole or frame. Some models also include a carry bag. Always check exactly what the quotation covers.
Which size should you choose?
Commercial widths vary and the visible area does not always match the graphic’s full size. Part of the lower section may remain inside the cassette, so use the template for the exact model.
Materials for the graphic
A flexible substrate suited to repeated rolling can reduce certain curling problems. A matt finish may help where lighting causes reflections, but it should be assessed using the material actually available.
How to prepare the artwork
- Specify the frame model and size.
- Check the visible area.
- Place the main message at a comfortable viewing height.
- Keep text and QR codes away from the base.
- Review images and logos at final size.
- Export the PDF with the specified bleed.
Standard, double-sided and mini roll-ups

| Mini | Countertop display |
What affects the price and installation?
The cassette, dimensions, substrate, quantity and transport all affect the cost. Do not assume resistance to wind when the model is designed for indoor use. For a short campaign, compare the cassette quality and replacement options rather than considering price alone.
If a retractable system is not suitable, X-banners and other portable display structures may offer an alternative, but each uses its own artwork dimensions and assembly method.
