What’s in the Box

BravoTabs®

100 Tabs Included

BravoTabs®

Crystal-clear adhesive tabs that apply to the corners and along the edges of your banner. BravoTabs spread wind stress over a much larger surface area than grommets — stronger and faster to apply.

Clear PowerTape® 1.5″ × 36 yd

1 Roll — 1.5″ × 36 yd

Clear PowerTape®

Crystal-clear single-sided banner hem tape. Run it along the top and bottom edges over the BravoTabs to reinforce the full edge without folding or sewing. Virtually invisible on mesh and double-sided banners.

EZ Punch

1 Tool Included

EZ Punch

A compact hole punch that cuts clean hanging holes through the BravoTab, Clear PowerTape, and banner media in one squeeze. No drill, no grommet setter, no mechanical press — just a clean professional hole, fast.

Step by Step

Banner Done in Four Steps

Step 1: Apply BravoTabs to banner corners
Step 1

Stick BravoTabs

Apply BravoTabs to the corners and along the edges of the banner. No tools needed — just peel and press. They bond firmly to the banner in seconds.

Step 2: Run Clear PowerTape along banner edges
Step 2

Run Clear PowerTape

Strip Clear PowerTape continuously along the top and bottom edges of the banner’s back side over the BravoTabs — corner to corner. The clear film eliminates the need for folded hems and is virtually invisible.

Step 3: Punch holes with EZ Punch
Step 3

Punch with EZ Punch

Use the included EZ Punch to cut a clean hole through the tape, BravoTab, and banner media in one squeeze. Leave a ¼″ leeway from the tape edge for maximum strength.

Step 4: Hang your banner
Step 4

Hang Your Banner

Thread bungee cord, zip tie, or rope through the punched holes and hang. Your banner is reinforced, professional, and ready to display — in under 3 minutes from start to finish.

Common Questions

Starter Kit FAQs

What comes in the Banner Ups® Starter Kit?
The kit includes three items: 100 BravoTabs® (crystal-clear adhesive corner and edge tabs), one roll of Clear PowerTape® (1.5″ wide × 36 yd, single-sided crystal-clear banner hem tape), and one EZ Punch (compact hole punch for cutting clean hanging holes through the finished banner edge). Everything you need to start finishing banners without a grommet setter.
How many banners will the starter kit cover?
The kit contains enough supplies to finish approximately 20 banners — depending on banner size and how many tabs you apply per banner. A standard 3×8 banner typically uses 4–8 BravoTabs and about 18–20 feet of Clear PowerTape. The time savings on those 20 banners alone will more than pay for the cost of the kit.
Can I reorder individual components after the kit runs out?
Yes — BravoTabs, Clear PowerTape, and EZ Punch are all available individually. Once you’ve tried the system and know what you use most, you can order each component in larger quantities. BravoTabs come in cases of 500–1,000 tabs; Clear PowerTape comes in cases of 5 rolls; and additional EZ Punches are available separately.
Is the starter kit suitable for outdoor banners?
Yes — the Banner Ups system was designed for demanding outdoor applications. BravoTabs have been wind-tunnel tested as part of the Banner Ups system, and Clear PowerTape is UV resistant and rated for outdoor use. Sign shops at trade shows and outdoor events use Banner Ups products precisely because they hold up in wind better than grommets alone.
How does Banner Ups compare to grommets?
Banner Ups products are actually stronger than grommets in most conditions — because tabs spread the stress of wind over a much larger surface area than a small grommet hole. Grommets concentrate all wind stress at a single punched hole, which is why grommet tears are so common. With Banner Ups, the load is distributed across the full tab footprint and reinforced by the tape along the hem edge.

Banner Ups products are superior to grommet punches for trade shows. Light, portable, clear, easier and faster to apply. You’ll never go back to traditional grommets!

The starter kit is superior to any traditional grommet maker. I ordered a second kit so we can run multiple banners simultaneously. A definite 5 star product!
