Working with banners is easier than ever before, thanks to a number of products from Banner Ups ranging from clear PowerTape to banner tape and plastic grommet tabs. One of the products that consistently make lives easier for users is the new Banner Ups PowerTabs adhesive grommet tabs. Here are a few reasons why.
The Material Matters
PowerTabs adhesive grommet tabs are made of a high-strength composite film. They are also stronger than metal grommets and just as strong as regular Banners Ups. The difference lies in the surface area on the tabs, which allows sign shops to make strong, inexpensive banner blanks instantly. Another advantage is that they are a lot less conspicuous than grommets, which makes for a more effective visual effect as they blend into the banner substrate. PowerTabs are available in several sizes and also come in crystal clear versions for full-color digital banners.
Transform Banners Instantly
What Banner Ups PowerTabs adhesive grommet tabs do is turn any digital image into a super-strong outdoor banner in minutes, allowing the image itself to shine through in all kinds of outdoor settings without requiring the hassle of sewing, grommeting, or working with special tools. It also works with all kinds of banner media, be it paper or vinyl, and is extremely effective for outdoor banners on account of its strength.
Withstand Tough Conditions
When it comes to outdoor banners, it’s essential to ensure that they are strong and durable enough to withstand tough weather conditions. Eye-catching graphics and colors are important, but without durability, the banners won’t last long. Steel grommets might seem like the stronger option, but they can actually cut through the banner media and rip out due to the wind load focused on a small area. On the other hand, PowerTabs on a banner is a better option. They are made of plastic, but they can withstand tough weather conditions as they spread the force out over a larger area, providing up to three times the resistance of grommets alone. With PowerTabs, you can ensure that your outdoor banners will remain in place and durable, even in challenging weather conditions.
How It Works
Banner Ups adhesive grommet tabs replace hems and metal grommets, eliminating the costs that come with that equipment. They are cost-effective, fast, and simply involve printing your banner, then peeling and pressing to apply Banner Ups, PowerTabs, or EdgeTabs. Once the tabs are applied simply punch a hole through the banner using the Banner Ups PowerPunch. That’s it. Then there’s the environmental impact. Metal grommets make perfectly recyclable plastic films like polyethylene and polypropylene non-recyclable. Banner Ups products are made of a base of polyethylene film, making all end products recyclable without you having to remove the grommets first.
Expert Tips
If you plan to purchase Banner Ups PowerTape, be sure to follow the following tips, tricks, and benefits that allow you to seamlessly hang up your banners that can withstand any condition.
- Using PowerTabs on a banner lets you avoid the hassle of sewing or using hem tape on long banners. This single-sided tape can be applied along the top and bottom edges of the banner and paired with PowerTabs for quick fabrication in just a few minutes. No more folding, welding, or tape is required!
- If you find it challenging to fold a banner hem with double-sided tape, there’s a simple trick to get it right every time. Learn these tips for installing MegaTape or any other double-sided tape accurately. You’ll find it helpful in making your banner fabrication process more efficient.
- Banner Ups MegaTape is an excellent option for creating strong banner hems that can withstand high winds. This double-sided tape is made from the same robust film as PowerTape, ensuring ultimate strength. By using MegaTape to create a folded hem, you can ensure that your banners will stay in place, even in challenging weather conditions.
- Grommets can be replaced with PowerTabs and other Banner Ups products for pop-up display stands. Simply install a tab on each corner of the banner and insert the tension post through the center hole of the tab to hold the banner securely in place.
- Reinforcing grommet holes with scraps of vinyl is not an effective method to add strength. Instead, consider using PowerTabs to double or triple the strength of your banners.
- If you’re looking for a way to make reinforcing materials invisible and get rid of the unsightly look of grommets, Banner Ups Clear PowerTape in combination with Clear PowerTabs is the solution.
- PowerTabs are a great alternative to grommets if you want to avoid tear-out. They are significantly stronger, about 2-3 times, and take less time to install than grommets. By using PowerTabs, you can ensure that your banners will stay in place and remain durable, even in tough conditions.
