Custom Backlit Banners

Backlit Banners: Shine Bright Day and Night

When standard advertising isn't enough, backlit banners offer a striking and highly effective solution. Designed to be illuminated from behind, these banners produce vivid, luminous colours that command attention even in the darkest environments. Whether you're promoting a brand at a busy urban location after dark, advertising at a railway station or creating an eye-catching display in a commercial space with no natural light, backlit banner printing delivers the visual impact you need — 24 hours a day.

At Pixartprinting, we offer professional backlit banner printing from just one copy, with a choice of premium materials, custom sizes and optional accessories to suit every application. Free delivery is included on every order, always.

Backlit Banner Materials Built for Maximum Luminosity

The quality of your backlit banner starts with the material. At Pixartprinting, we offer two specialist substrates, each engineered to maximise light transmission and colour brilliance:

• Extreme Backlight 450 gsm — An affordable and lightweight vinyl, specifically designed for backlit displays. Ideal for night-time outdoor use or poorly lit indoor spaces, it delivers bright, consistent illumination across the entire surface. The maximum printable width is 314 cm; larger sizes are produced as multiple panels, heat welded with a 2 cm overlap for a seamless finish.
• Backlighting Fabric 150 gsm — A premium polyester fabric with a close weave and slight elasticity, treated to be crease-resistant. Its high light transmission allows highly detailed images to be reproduced with exceptional clarity, producing bright, well-defined colours when backlit. Available up to a maximum printable size of 500 x 313 cm, it is the ideal choice for high-end displays in dark locations and night-time environments.

Custom Backlit Banner Sizes for Every Display

Whether you need a standard format or a bespoke size, our backlit banner printing service gives you complete flexibility. Choose from our most popular ready-made formats or specify your own dimensions:

• 300 x 200 cm
• 300 x 100 cm
• 200 x 80 cm
• 148 x 100 cm
• Custom format — minimum 20 x 20 cm, maximum 2100 x 700 cm

Banners are available with a standard rectangular cut or a custom shape, giving you the freedom to create a display that truly stands out. Optional reinforced edges and pole pockets are also available to ensure a neat, professional finish in any setting.

Accessories for Your Backlit Banner Printing Order

To make installation as straightforward as possible, we offer a range of optional accessories with every backlit banner order:
