X Banners in Kenya

The budget stand

An X banner uses a lightweight X-shaped frame with the print hooked to the corners. It costs less than a roll-up and packs down small, which is why it is a favourite for promotions and short campaigns.

Where it works best

Use it indoors on flat floors where it won't be knocked. It is lighter than a roll-up, so it is less stable outdoors and in draughts. If wind is a concern, choose a heavier stand type.

Sizes

60 x 160 cm is very slim and fits narrow entrances. 80 x 180 cm is broader and easier to read from a distance.

Artwork

Corners are held by the frame, so keep text and logos about 5 cm away from the edges. Full-bleed backgrounds work fine and the corners can be extended slightly for the fixing.

Choose blockout PVC if the graphic will sit in front of a bright window.
