Roller Banner Buyers Guide

Welcome to Eazy Print! If you’re exploring roller banners for the first time, we’re here to help you make an informed choice. Roller banners are one of the most effective, convenient, and budget-friendly ways to promote your brand, products, or services. Whether you’re engaging with existing customers, advertising a new product, or creating awareness at an event, roller banners can serve as versatile and impactful promotional tools.

This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about roller banners, from their benefits to setup tips and choosing the right model for your needs. Our Roller Banner Sizes and Weights page provides more information on display size, footprint area and packed weights.


What is a Roller Banner?

A roller banner, also known as a retractable banner, pull-up banner, or roll-up banner, is a self-standing display with a graphic that retracts into a sturdy base for easy transport and storage. These banners are compact, lightweight, and can be set up quickly—perfect for exhibitions, trade shows, or in-store promotions.

Simply extend the graphic from the spring-loaded base, secure it to a pole, and your banner is ready to go!


Why Use a Roller Banner?

Roller banners are ideal for:

  • Attracting attention at events or exhibitions
  • Creating brand awareness in high-traffic areas
  • Advertising special offers and new products
  • Serving as backdrops for trade show booths or media events

From retail spaces and reception areas to outdoor events, roller banners can help you effectively connect with customers wherever they are.


Setting Up Your Roller Banner in 4 Simple Steps

One of the best features of roller banners is how easy they are to set up. Follow these steps, and you’ll have your display ready in less than 30 seconds!

Step-by-Step Setup

  1. Choose the Perfect Location: Begin by selecting a high-traffic area where your roller banner will be most visible. Ensure the space is safe and has no trip hazards, debris, or uneven surfaces that could cause instability. For double-sided roller banners, maximise exposure by avoiding placements near walls or barriers—this way, your banner gets seen from all angles!

    Quick Tip: To prevent glare, keep the banner out of direct sunlight or strong artificial lights, especially in photo-heavy setups.

  2. Unpack and Organise the Components: Every roller banner from Eazy Print comes with a padded carry case for easy transport and safe storage. Carefully remove all the components, ensuring everything you need is ready and nearby. Then, place the carry case in a safe spot so it’s ready for re-packing when you’re done.

    Pro Tip: Store the banner in its case when not in use to keep it looking fresh for future events.

  3. Stabilise the Banner’s Base: Set up the base by swinging out any stabilising feet attached underneath. This step is crucial for staining your roller banner, especially in busy areas. Our premium models come with a weighted base, which provides added stability—so you may skip this step if you’ve opted for a premium roller banner.

    Reminder: Always check that the surface is level to avoid any wobbling.

  4. Assemble the Banner Stand: Insert the support pole securely into the base slot. Pull the banner graphic upwards from the base, keeping a steady grip to prevent damage. Attach the top of the graphic to the pole, ensuring it’s fully extended and secure. And there you have it—a stunning, custom roller banner ready to impress!

    Tip: Take your time when pulling up the graphic to avoid creasing or damage.

To dismantle, simply unhook the banner, carefully retract it into the base, and store it in the carry case.


Choosing the Right Roller Banner for Your Needs

There’s a roller banner to suit every budget, space, and purpose. Here’s what to consider:

1. What is Your Budget?

2. Where Will You Use It?

  • Limited Space? Consider the Midi Roller Banner, which offers adjustable heights and can be floor-standing or desktop.
  • Ample Space? The Wide Roller Banner makes a strong visual impact, ideal for larger venues or covering bare walls.

3. What is the Intended Use?

  • Frequent Graphic Changes? The Budget and Premium roller banners allow for easy graphic replacement.
