Which banner fabric should I choose?

You can choose from three top-quality cafe barrier fabrics to suit your requirements:

  • 360gsm Polyester: Our polyester banners have a PA water-based coating, making them strong, tear-resistant and easy-to-clean, with a long lifespan.
  • 360gsm PVC-Free: This PVC-Free option is robust and waterproof, being an eco-friendly choice with all the benefits of traditional PVC. It has a grey backing to ensure full opacity for vibrant prints. It's also wipe-clean and fire-resistant.
  • 180gsm PVC-Free Mesh: Perforated PVC-free fabric - wind can pass through the mesh, without causing it to billow. For single-sided prints only, as the reverse of your banner will be unprinted. Artwork may look slightly lighter, as light passes through the fabric.

Seams are closed using strong adhesive - no stitching means you don't need to worry about them fraying over time. The banners are fully recyclable and non-toxic, making them a greener option for your business.

Artwork is directly printed on both sides of the Polyester banner for double-sided prints, and the same applies for the PVC-Free banner there is a white block print added to the grey backing first.

FAQs

Where else can I use a Cafe Barrier System?

They're a perfect way to attract cafe customers while bordering an outdoor area. But, they're not just for cafes and restaurants - they're also ideal for crowd control, managing queues, or creating separate seating areas.

What components does the Café Barrier System include?

Each branded cafe barriers kit includes:

  • 2 x poles and bases
  • 2 x cross rails in your chosen size
  • Bespoke printed café banner
  • Spring clips to attach your banner

The outdoor cafe barrier system comes in two finishes: polished chrome or matte black. The rings at the base of the black poles are shiny black.

To expand your system, just add as many extension kits as you need. You can also buy extra banners to change for your promotions and events.

How do the cafe banners attach to the poles?

The top and bottom of your café banner attach to your poles using cross rails and spring clips, which add tension to your displays. If needed, you can clip one end of a pavement barrier cross rail to your wall using our chrome eye plates.
