Product Details
Blockout banners are printed on heavyweight 15oz blockout vinyl with an opaque core layer sandwiched between the two print faces. That core stops light and images from passing through, so each side stays crisp and fully saturated with no ghosting — making blockout the right choice for double-sided hanging banners, retractable stands near windows, and any display with light behind it. Choose single or double-sided printing in seven stock sizes, or enter any custom size up to 5 × 20 ft, finished with hemmed edges, brass grommets, or pole pockets.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a blockout banner and how is it different from a regular vinyl banner?
A blockout banner is printed on heavyweight 15oz vinyl that has an opaque, light-blocking core layer built into the material. On a standard banner, a bright light behind the banner (or the image on the reverse side) can show through; the blockout core stops that completely. That makes blockout the right pick whenever you print both sides, hang a banner in a window or near backlight, or simply want the deepest, most saturated color with no ghosting.
Can blockout banners be printed double-sided?
Yes — double-sided is what blockout is made for. The opaque core between the two print faces keeps each side's artwork from bleeding through to the other, so both sides stay sharp and full-color. Select Double-Sided under Print Sides; pricing is per square foot and shown live as you configure.
When should I choose blockout instead of standard indoor or 13oz outdoor vinyl?
Choose blockout any time light matters: double-sided hanging banners, retractable stands placed in front of windows, lobby or storefront displays with backlight, or high-end signage where you want zero show-through. For single-sided indoor signage on a budget, standard 10mil matte is lighter and cheaper; for outdoor fence and event banners, 13oz scrim vinyl is the workhorse. Blockout is the premium, opaque option.
What sizes do blockout banners come in?
Seven stock sizes from 2×4 ft up to 4×8 ft, plus any custom size you need up to 5 × 20 ft — just select Custom Size and enter your width and height in feet. Custom pricing is based on square footage and calculated instantly. For a size beyond 5×20 ft, contact us and we'll quote it.
What finishing and hanging options are available?
Every blockout banner can be finished with hemmed edges plus brass grommets (the easiest way to hang with hooks, zip ties, or wire), hemmed-only for a clean edge with your own hanging method, or pole pockets for sliding a rod or dowel along the top and bottom. Pole pockets add $8 to the order.
