Exhibition/Shell Scheme Graphics

• You can give us your artwork in any of these formats: EPS, PDF, AI, PSD. If you have PDF or EPS, this is preferable.
• Artwork can be designed at full size @ 150dpi or half size @ 300 dpi.
• Please bear in mind we print all designs in CMYK, so colour shifts can occur when designs are supplied in RGB format.
• Please convert all fonts to outlines.
• For our standard banners (PVC and Mesh) we recommend not placing any critical artwork/text within 5cms of any edge. Bleed of 25mms should be added to all edges.
• For our scaffolding banners, we recommend not placing any critical artwork/text within 15cms of the top and bottom edges as this will be used for the pole sleeves.

Colour Codes:

We will match colours as close as possible but some print processes may result in colour changes. Colours will not always print exactly as they appear on your computer monitor so please let us know if you have specific colour shades. PDF proofs cannot be accurate for colour due to the nature of different computers and their monitors.  However, all other elements such as copy and layout should be checked. All RGB and Pantone shades will be converted to CMYK by our RIP software. Please note that due to the variety of materials and printing processes use to manufacture your product(s), we cannot guarantee a full colour match, although we will endeavour to match as close as possible within the tolerances of the material. If you wish to check how your colour code prints before we process your order, please let us know and we can supply a hard copy proof.

Once you have completed the checkout process online, you are automatically re-directed to our artwork upload page. On this page, you will be able to upload your own designs/logos/images.

If you select a hem and eyelet finish, our banners are printed with a welded hem free of charge. This means we fold over the banner on itself and heat weld the edges, giving it added strength. We also offer a reinforced hem at an additional cost £1.50 per linear metre. If this is selected the edges of the banners are reinforced with a thick nylon coated webbing. This will give the banners extra strength during weather conditions. It does not make them weather proof!
