Wide Format Printing

Wide format printing in Auckland for vinyl banners, pull ups, mesh banners, and fabric displays. Indoor and outdoor, finished and ready to hang.

Wide format printing in Auckland. Banners, pull ups, mesh wraps, fabric displays. When your message needs to span metres, this is how it happens. Our Auckland digital printing specialists produce wide format graphics for businesses across West Auckland, Henderson, Glen Eden, and New Lynn. Vinyl, mesh, fabric, whatever the application calls for. It's a core part of our digital print services.

What is Wide Format Printing?

A vinyl banner running the full width of your shopfront catches every pedestrian walking past. Pull up banners at a trade show grab attention from across the hall. A building wrap turns dead wall space into advertising real estate that thousands see daily. Standard printing can't touch any of that. Wide format can. And if you need vehicle wrap graphics too, we handle those from the same workshop.

Falcon Signs produces:

  • Vinyl banners (PVC, indoor and outdoor grades)
  • Pull up banners (retractable exhibition displays, complete systems)
  • Mesh banners (wind-permeable for buildings and scaffolding)
  • Fabric banners (premium textile displays with drape)
  • Building wraps and scaffolding banners
  • Fence banners for events and construction sites
  • Teardrop and feather banners
  • Custom width displays built to your spec

Our wide format equipment handles diverse banner materials with the colour accuracy and durability your project demands.

Retail chains, construction companies, event organisers, real estate agencies. Auckland businesses throughout West Auckland, Henderson, Glen Eden, and New Lynn use us for wide format printing that holds up in real-world conditions.

When You Need Us

When You Need Wide Format Printing

1

Trade Shows and Exhibitions

Pull up banners and display graphics that make your stand look like you meant it. Portable, quick to set up, and they draw people over. We supply the complete system including carry bag.

2

Retail Promotions

Vinyl banners visible from the street and car park drive foot traffic into stores. We've seen retailers swap these out monthly for seasonal promos and the results keep them coming back.

3

Building and Facade Advertising

Turn blank building walls into advertising platforms. Large scale banners on facades deliver ongoing brand exposure to passing traffic. Thousands of impressions a day, no ongoing media spend.

4

Construction Site Branding

Mesh banners on scaffolding and hoardings present development projects well while building is underway. Wind-permeable, durable, and they make the site look intentional rather than chaotic.

5

Event Marketing

Banners that define areas, direct attendees, and make sponsors visible. They turn a bare venue into an event space. We handle everything from single pull ups to full event banner packages.

6

Sports and Recreation

Fence banners and perimeter advertising for sporting events and facilities. Sponsor logos that spectators can actually read from the stands, not squint at.

7

Hospitality and Entertainment

Promote your venue, upcoming events, and current offerings. Pull ups in foyers, vinyl banners on exteriors. Catching passing foot traffic before they walk past to the next place.

8

Real Estate Marketing

Street-facing banners on listings and developments. Wide format graphics grab attention from the road and get the word out faster than a listing link nobody clicks.

9

Festival and Market Stalls

Branded banners that identify your stall in a crowded market environment. When there are fifty vendors, the one with the visible banner gets found first.

10

Warehouse and Industrial

Safety messaging, wayfinding, and branding across large industrial spaces. When the building is 5,000 square metres, the signage needs to match the scale.

Our Process

Our Wide Format Printing Process

01

Application Discussion

Where will the banners go? How are they being mounted? What's the weather like there? How long do they need to last? We work through those questions first because the answers determine material and finishing.

02

Size and Format Determination

Standard pull up, custom width display, building-scale mesh? We recommend dimensions based on the application and viewing distance. Not bigger than needed, not smaller than useful.

03

Artwork Review

We check resolution, colour setup, and overall suitability at the width you need. If something won't hold up, we flag it before production.

04

Material Selection

Heavy PVC vinyl for outdoor durability. Lighter vinyl for indoor events. Mesh for windy locations. Fabric for premium indoor displays. The material matches the conditions.

05

Colour Management

Brand colours reproducing accurately on banner materials. Consistent with your other marketing materials so everything looks like it belongs to the same business.

06

Production and Finishing

Calibrated wide format equipment, consistent colour across extended widths, and the right finishing. Welded hems, grommets, pole pockets, hardware. Banners leave ready to hang.

07

Quality Inspection

Every banner gets checked for print quality, colour accuracy, and finishing before delivery. Ready for immediate installation when it reaches you.

Frequently Asked Questions - Wide Format Printing

Honestly, the terms overlap a lot. Wide format usually means roll-fed materials like vinyl and mesh, commonly banners and displays. Large format tends to refer to oversized prints including posters and rigid panel displays. In practice, both describe printing well beyond standard office sizes. We do both.

Heavy-duty PVC vinyl (440 to 500gsm) for most outdoor applications. Tough, weather-resistant, takes vibrant colour. For windy spots, mesh banner material lets wind pass through so your mounting points don't cop the full load. Both accept UV-resistant inks and optional lamination.

850mm x 2000mm is the most common and works for most situations. 1000mm x 2000mm gives a wider presence. 1200mm x 2000mm for maximum impact. Double-sided options and tabletop sizes too. We supply the complete system: banner, cassette, carry bag.

PDF or high-res image files at minimum 100 DPI at final print size. Include bleed for edge-to-edge printing. Colours in CMYK mode. For very large banners, you can supply files at 50% scale with 150 DPI and the output quality is equivalent.

Welded hems on all edges for reinforcement. Grommets (eyelets) at intervals for hanging. Pole pockets for horizontal suspension. D-rings and rope edging for specific mounting setups. We go through finishing requirements during project planning so the banner arrives ready to install.

Typically 2 to 3 years under normal NZ conditions. Harsh coastal exposure or extreme sun shortens that. UV-resistant inks and lamination extend the lifespan. For anything expected to stay up long-term, we recommend heavier vinyl weights and the better finishing options.

Yes. Blockout vinyl prevents show-through between sides. Mesh with double-sided print works for wind-permeable applications. Pull up banners come in double-sided configurations too. Double-sided makes sense for hanging banners viewed from multiple angles.
