Gaining Exposure Far and Wide with Great Event and Festival Signage

August 15, 2016 / in Blog / by Mesh Direct / No Comments

Festivals and events in general present a monumental opportunity for organisers and sponsors to share their message and promote their brand. These events often see tens of thousands of people congregate to a small enclosed space with fencing and crowd control barriers placed as far as the eye can see. With all these potential marketing and branding opportunities it is vital that they are taken with both hands. There can be many stakeholders involved in putting on an event and we are able to work with organisers and sponsors to visualise and create spectacular branding opportunities. Events attract a large audience with common interests and are ideal places for advertising certain products and brands.

The possibilities are endless and the market is flooded with so many great products such as:

Printed shade cloth

Custom banner mesh

Vinyl hoardings

Mesh fence panels

Corflute signage

Custom crowd control barrier covers

All events are unique in their own way and you can’t apply a cookie cutter approach if you want to achieve optimal branding results. That is why with all these great products it has never been easier to spruce up and individualise your event with beautifully designed and coloured banners to not only promote your brand but to also make the event space more vibrant and nice place to be for the public. With events time is critical, it is vital to have signs in the right place and at the right time- too early and there is nowhere to store them, too late and well, you missed the boat.

5 Tips to Ensure a Perfect Banner Installation on Temporary Fencing

September 01, 2015 / in Blog / by Mesh Direct / No Comments

Your beautifully printed banner mesh has cost you a bit of money but is now all set to repay you in conveying your message –  you just need to install it. Installing banners on fencing is usually a fairly simple task if you know some basic tips and the cornerstone of those tips is tension. A banner that is crooked, sagging or flapping in the breeze can be more damaging than helpful, displaying a lack of care and sloppiness.

Here are some simple tips to ensure you get the best visual result from your next installation:

1. Purchase the correct substrate and size for your project.  We recommend you always leave some space between the height of the fence and the vertical banner dimension. Our knowledgeable sales consultants will guide you to pick an ideal size and substrate depending on various factors such as wind load, size of fencing, how long you would like to use the banner for etc.
2. Plan the installation when you can have someone else to help you and weather conditions are favourable.
3. Use the correct installation method. Cable ties should be interlaced through the grommets and fencing.
4. The banner should be tightened to the perfect tension ensuring your message displays on a flat canvas
5. Maintain your banner by regularly checking the tension and making any adjustments as necessary.

This is a great time-lapse video showcasing the installation of a mesh banner at Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre in Sydney’s Inner West.

At Mesh Direct, we can provide a professional installer to do the job for you if you prefer. Please see our installation service page for more details or contact us on 1300 368 978 or visit www.meshdirect.com.au/get-a-quote/.
