Vertical Vinyl Banners
Uses and Benefits of Vertical Vinyl Banners
Printed Today produces premium vertical vinyl banners designed for tall and narrow display areas. Made from heavy-duty 510 GSM PVC, these vertical hanging banners provide long-lasting durability, vivid colour reproduction and strong tear resistance. They are perfect for retail entrances, column displays, shopfronts, exhibitions, showrooms, corridors and event spaces across London, Manchester and the rest of the UK.
Whether you require a slim vertical PVC vinyl banner for indoor branding or a tall vertical outdoor banner for high-visibility promotions, the service offers fast turnaround, simple pricing and UK-wide delivery. With square-foot pricing, even extra-tall formats stay affordable, and larger vertical banners benefit from automatic bulk savings as your total print area increases.
Design and Artwork – How It Works
Ways to Supply Artwork for Vertical Hanging Vinyl Banners
You can provide your artwork using any of these methods:
- Upload directly on the product page during checkout.
- Email artwork to [email protected] with your order number as the subject line.
- Share large files via Google Drive, WeTransfer, Dropbox, SendBig or other cloud services.
Artwork Preparation Guidelines for Custom Vertical Vinyl Banner Printing
To ensure sharp, high-quality printing on your vertical banner, follow these guidelines:
- Set artwork to match your exact banner dimensions.
- Add at least 1.5 inches (≈ 38 mm) bleed on every side.
- Use 100–300 dpi at full size for crisp detail.
- PDF is preferred; PSD, AI, EPS, TIFF, PNG and JPEG are also accepted.
- Embed or outline all fonts, and supply vector logos where available.
Free Artwork Check and Design Support
Every file is checked by our design team before printing. We confirm resolution, bleed, size and safety margins. If adjustments are needed, we contact you immediately. If you do not have artwork:
- Send your written content, preferred colours and layout ideas.
- Attach logos, photos or previous designs for reference.
A layout proof is usually prepared within 20–30 minutes during working hours. Nothing is printed until you approve your artwork. Final artwork files can also be supplied for future use.

Pricing Structure and Calculator
How Prices Are Calculated
Printed Today uses a simple and transparent formula for all vertical banner printing:
total price = width (ft) × height (ft) × quantity × rate per sq ft
Rates depend on your square-footage band and your chosen delivery speed (Standard, 72 hours, 48 hours, 24 hours or Same Day).
