Hi-Vis Yellow Hoarding (600D Fluor PU) — Weather protection and high conspicuity in one panel — the site-signage specification, specified for hoarding banners.
This is the coated version of our fluorescent outdoor range. The polyurethane back coating handles the weather; the fluorescent ground handles the visibility. It is the combination specified where a banner has to stay legible through a wet season on an exposed site, rather than through a single weekend event.
Site hoarding is a long-term outdoor graphic in a hostile environment: dust, plant traffic, weather, and the occasional impact. It also has a job to do commercially, usually announcing what is coming and who is building it.
Fluorescent yellow
Fluorescent yellow sits closest to the peak of human daylight sensitivity, which makes it the brightest colour the eye can register in good light and the standard for daytime high-visibility. It reads particularly well against dark backgrounds and in the flat light of an overcast day.
Best for
- Construction-site hoarding
- Retail refit and coming-soon hoarding
- Development marketing panels
- Perimeter site screening
- Safety and wayfinding messaging
Key advantages
- Fluorescent ground plus a weather coating — conspicuity that survives the season
- Polyurethane backing stops rain passing through the weave
- Wipes clean, which matters on dusty construction and highway sites
- Heavy enough to stay stable on fencing and scaffold without constant re-tensioning
- Opaque body keeps warning copy and artwork sharply readable
Specifications

| Water resistance | Water-resistant — the PU coating sheds rain; hems and eyelets are stitched, so we specify this as water-resistant |
| Indicative service life | Outdoor 2-3 yrs (shorter in high-UV regions) |
| Recommended finishing | Welded hems, reinforced corners, brass eyelets, tension straps |

| Water resistance (typical) | 1,200-1,500 mm hydrostatic head for a 600D PU-coated construction, per AATCC 127 / ISO 811 |
| Coating weight (typical) | 80-120 g/m² polyurethane, applied to the reverse face |
Choosing the right specification
Work out the campaign length honestly and buy for it. A lightweight banner is genuinely cheaper for a three-month refit; on an eighteen-month development it will need replacing twice and you will pay for the access each time. For anything beyond a season, a coated Oxford or tarpaulin is the lower total cost.
How ordering works
- Send your artwork — Upload print-ready artwork at any stage — we check scale, resolution and bleed before anything goes to press and come back to you if something needs adjusting.
- Made to your size — Every panel is cut and finished to your dimensions. Tell us the finished size you need and how it is being fixed, and we will allow for hems and fixings correctly.
- Printed by dye-sublimation — Colour is transferred into the polyester fibre under heat, so the image becomes part of the cloth rather than a layer sitting on top of it.
- Finished and shipped — Hems, eyelets, pole pockets, silicone edge and other finishing are applied before your order is folded, boxed and dispatched worldwide.

Technical detail
How water resistance is measured. Hydrostatic head is tested under AATCC 127 (US) or ISO 811 (Europe): water pressure is raised steadily against the cloth until three leak points appear. A 600D PU-coated construction typically rates 1,200-1,500 mm. These are typical figures for the construction rather than a measured result for your specific roll.
What to expect from service life. Indoors and out of direct sun, printed polyester holds its appearance for five years or more. Outdoors, published ranges for dye-sublimated polyester run from roughly six to twenty-four months depending on how exposed the position is, with the shorter end applying in high-ultraviolet regions such as the Southwest, Florida and the Gulf Coast, and in coastal or high-wind locations. Sheltered and north-facing installations reach the longer end. Coated and tarpaulin-grade constructions extend beyond that band because the coating carries the UV load.
Best suited to
Exposed site work that must stay both weatherproof and conspicuous across a season — construction hoarding, highway and utility signage, and match-day perimeters.
Also in this range
For multi-year installations, our tarpaulin range extends service life further; for very exposed spans, our vented mesh reduces the load on your fixings.
