A portable powerhouse
Announce your presence during conferences and events, farmers markets, real estate showings and more with custom retractable banners. Our aluminium retractable banner stands are ideal for trade shows thanks to their portability, while heavier cassettes are great for retail environments that prioritize long-term display. The banner rolls smoothly into the cassette for compact storage and transport, making it perfect for booth displays, backdrops and promotional media. Use your custom banner stand to promote special offers, advertise new products or share a QR code – whatever message you'd like. Regardless of which retractable banner you choose, their easy assembly and included carrying case means your event setup (and take down) is quick and stress-free.
Easy to set up & reuse
Our roll-up retractable banners come preassembled with everything you need – cassette, banner and case – in 4 versatile sizes: 24" x 62", 24" x 81", 33" x 81" and 47" x 81". Choose from 3 materials: vinyl for durability and indoor displays, PVC-free vinyl for eco-conscious events and polyester fabric for a softer feel. Durable and ready for repeated and long-term indoor use, these banner stands are a great way to get your brand noticed in busy settings. Pick the retractable banner stand that fits your needs – standard for occasional use, standard plus and premium for trade shows and retail displays or premium plus and elite for high-traffic environments. When assembling, use both hands to pull up from the center of your banner stand to avoid damage. Upgrade to our protective glossy coating to guard against scuffs and enhance the vibrancy of your design (available with our vinyl material). And when you're done, slowly lower your banner straight down into the cassette, keeping control of the top bar to protect the mechanism. Pop it in its case and store it for your next event.

Important notes to keep in mind:
Tips for Assembly:
- Pull from the center when raising the banner. This prevents material from pulling to the side.
- Avoid jerky movements – be gentle with the mechanism.
- If the banner leans forward, adjust the pole at the base to make sure it connects with both holes.
Tips for Disassembly:
- Lower the banner straight down, not at an angle. This keeps the rolled banner even and prevents edges from catching on the cassette metal.
- Keep control of the top bar as the banner lowers so it doesn't slam into the cassette.
- If you see fraying or scrapes, check that material edges aren't caught in the base.
- If the banner won't retract, make sure the pin isn't inserted into the side of the stand. (Note: the pin should have been removed during manufacturing.)
- If the banner feels stuck, gently pull the material out and realign it so it retracts smoothly.
The biggest difference between these banners is the material used, portability and display setup.

Each material offers different benefits for your custom retractable banner:
Vinyl: Smooth, light-blocking vinyl that offers durability for indoor displays and trade shows.
PVC-Free Vinyl: PVC- and phthalate-free vinyl with a smooth feel and light-filtering properties.
Polyester Fabric: Knotted, coated fabric that blocks light with a softer appearance for design-forward displays.
Note: Material availability varies by cassette type. See our chart in the 1st FAQ for details on which materials are available with each cassette option.
Store your banner in its carrying case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For vinyl and PVC-free vinyl, wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. For polyester, use a soft brush to remove dust. Allow banners to air dry completely before storing. Avoid extreme temperatures and prolonged sunlight to keep your promotional display vibrant for trade shows and events.
