Banners are a great way for your business or organization to advertise. It doesn’t matter if you are advertising a certain sale, sporting event, gathering, open house, or just for branding purposes. Making sure you stay visible is a top priority. There are many aspects that go into creating quality banners including how custom vinyl banner printing is accomplished. You want to make sure you are using the services of an expert printing company that specializes in superior printing with true color. They should use a Pantone Matching System, or PMS for short, that ensures you are getting the correct color printed on all of your signage. Every color used is given a three or four digit number with letters, or a letter at the end. Numbers that end with a ‘c’ are known as coated colors and are used by banner printing companies for quality assurance. Coated colors vary from other forms of PMS colors so make sure that you are asking for coated colors for all of your banner printing requirements.
Understanding PMS Colors Is Important for Banner Creations
When picking colors for your banners, or looking at a mock-up, you should not rely on the colors you see on your computer screen because they are not an accurate color representation for PMS. No two computer screens are going to show the same colors alike. The experts can show your mock-ups that have the PMS colors listed which is essential. Those numbers are used with a physical PMS color chart the make sure that you are actually approving colors that are correct. Print stores tend to have PMS color charts on hand so you can ask to view a ‘coated’ chart. The pros understand how important accurate color is and will produce a color match chart for PMS at no additional charge.
Get True Colors on Your Banner
The experts also understand that is very difficult to recreate a color. It is imperative that you are relying on a talented production team with years of experience matching many different colors. Most of the time this is done by hand so your colors are tailored to the materials you choose to use for your banners. Since there are variations in color depending on the type of material that is used, this task is essential to banner creations. You can always check the colors on a banner outside in the natural light to view the correct color. Sunlight will always show true colors.
