Lamp Post Banners

A fabric banner is typically polyester printed via dye-sublimation, which infuses colour into the fibres for vivid, durable graphics and a soft, low-glare finish.

For true double sided street banners, use blockout PVC with a light-stop layer to prevent show-through; typically 650–740 gsm for durability.

We commonly recommend: 2000 mm × 600/750/800 mm (and similar 2200 mm lengths), with larger sizes only for short term/low wind sites. Always match the banner to the bracket’s limits.

Yes; street installs usually require permission from the asset owner (e.g., the council) and may require advertisement consent under UK planning rules, especially on highways or where size thresholds are exceeded. Check locally before fitting.

EN40 is the lighting column design standard that governs wind loading on street light poles. Many councils require EN40 compliant bracket systems; guidance often references load equivalence (e.g., a 0.3 m² rigid sign). Use tested systems to stay compliant.

Use spring tension (wind spill) brackets that flex and keep banners taut; leading systems are wind tunnel tested (e.g., up to 90 mph) and paired with the correct banding.

Yes; blockout PVC (e.g., 700–740 gsm) has an opaque core that stops show through, so both sides read cleanly.

Banners are finished with top/bottom pole pockets to slide over fibreglass/GRP arms; brackets are secured to columns using stainless steel banding (often Tamtorque), typically three bands per bracket per supplier guidance.

Blockout PVC for lamp post banners is widely available with B1/M1 flame-retardant certification for UK/EU safety requirements. Ask for the specific substrate’s certificate.

Not usually when you use spring tension EN40 compliant brackets sized correctly. Some kits include slits, but compliance and wind performance primarily come from the bracket system and sizing.

Yes; many EN40 compliant systems support single or double banner setups on one column, within size and load limits.
