What is velcro?
Velcro is a hook-and-loop strip, welded or sewn onto the back of a banner or a canvas. It consists of two sides: a hook side and a loop side. Press them together: they grip. Pull: they come apart. That is the whole principle.
The benefit is in the installation. The counterpart (the loop side) is glued or stapled just once to the wall, the frame or the stand panel. The graphic carries the hook side on its back. To install it, press it against the surface. To change it, peel it off. A few seconds, no tools.
On our banners and fabrics, four placements are available: 2.5 cm velcro at the top (€3.20 per m²), 5 cm at the top (€4.00 per m²), 10 cm at the top (€4.80 per m²), or 5 cm at both top and bottom (€7.00 per m²). The wider the strip, the larger the fastening surface. The top and bottom placement holds both edges of the graphic flat.
When should you choose Velcro?
- Fabric frames and exhibition walls: the graphic installs and swaps out without tools.
- Exhibition stands and trade shows: quick assembly and disassembly, by hand.
- Graphics changed often (promotions, campaigns, seasons): the mounting stays in place, only the graphic changes.
- For a banner stretched on a frame, the 13 mm eyelets remain the classic solution.
Velcro can be added as an option on our PVC banner at the time of ordering: choose the width (2.5, 5 or 10 cm) and the position (top only, or top and bottom). As with any finish, check your graphic on the print proof before sending it to print.
