Seasonal / Advent Banner Set

Seasonal / Advent Banner Set — made to your size in a choice of 3 fabrics, from 120gsm to 260gsm.

Liturgical textiles are used, stored and brought out again year after year, often on a seasonal cycle. Longevity and dignity of finish matter more than novelty, and the fabric needs to look right in a building where the architecture is doing most of the talking.

This product is offered across more than one fabric because the right answer depends on where the panel is going and how long it needs to last. The table below sets every option side by side on the specifications that actually decide the choice — weight, opacity, finish and weather behaviour — so you can compare them directly rather than opening a page for each one.

Best for

• Chancel and sanctuary wall banners
• Processional banners
• Pulpit and lectern falls
• Seasonal and Advent banner sets
• Baptistry and font backdrops

Fabric options compared

Which fabric should you choose?

• 120gsm Poly Satin — A satin weave that catches light along its length — the decorator's fabric.
• 800D Linen-Look — Woven from slub yarns to give the irregular texture of linen, with none of linen's bad habits.
• 160gsm Twill — A twill weave with a fine diagonal rib — the practical, hard-wearing everyday cloth.

Key advantages

• One product, 3 fabric specifications — compare and choose without leaving the page
• Fluid drape that falls into soft natural folds rather than hanging stiff
• Lustrous face picks up highlights beautifully under warm and directional lighting
• Dye-sublimated colour reads deep and saturated against the sheen
• Sews readily into swags, drapes, runners and gathered treatments

Choosing the right specification

Choose a textured matte fabric over a glossy one. Linen-look and soft knit finishes sit comfortably alongside stone, timber and stained glass in a way that high-sheen satin does not. For a seasonal set that will be stored eleven months a year, specify a fabric that recovers from folding — polyester does this far better than natural fibre, which is why it has largely replaced it for banner work.

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.
