Cypress Graphics finishing options:
1: Sewn hemmed edges- Cypress Graphics sews it's banners in house for a strong, durable banner. Before buying a banner from another vender ask if they sew their banners in house, or charge extra to have your banner sewn!
2: Hem taped finished banners- Hem tape is a good finishing option for digital prints that will be seen up close. When you don't want to see thread in your printed image hem tape is a great option.
3: Grommets- You have to have a way to hang you new banner and grommets are the perfect way to do it. Cypress Graphics standard is to place a grommet in each corner. Addition grommets can be added by request.
4: Raw finishing- While not recommend by Cypress Graphics, cutting the printed banner to size and leaving the edge raw is an option, all though not a good one. This technique is the "standard" finishing option for most large chain copy centers and oh yea would you like a side of banners with that?
Cypress Graphics prints 90% of all its banners. Printing banners instead of using cut vinyl, allows us more design freedom, and better visual impact.
