I work for a developer and had a last-minute panic because the delivery of a banner showing our masterplan for a development didn’t arrive on time (from a different manufacturer). We found this out on Tuesday evening and needed it for Thursday, as this was the first of three consultation events. I found and contacted Essex Banners and they responded to me very quickly, continuing throughout the evening way past working hours. This continued the next morning too, before working hours, and Danny was very responsive to all my many questions and millions of emails! I ordered the 2.4m by 3m stretch fabric wall. They offered same-day delivery but, to save money, I decided to go up to Chesterfield to collect it straight from their manufacturers. Someone met me to give me the banners and it all went very smoothly, and it was in a portable bag so I could take it back by train. The printing looked fab and really clear and the frame displayed our masterplan really well; it meant that people weren’t huddled over a table looking down! It also was super beneficial that it was double-sided, so lots of people could look at it at the same time. The frame was really easy to set up and take apart which is impressive for something of that size. The photos show it in a couple of the events! Thanks very much to Essex Banners :)) would definitely recommend

Excellent design and next day delivery service. Definitely recommend 👍
Absolutely fabulous - from the initial correspondence through to the actual product! Super easy to submit my own design (AI assisted) and the quality of the finished product blew me away. Correspondence with Danny was answered straightaway by email and delivery was a day early. Also price was by far the best quote I received! Highly recommended!

We ordered a banner for a Pride parade. We requested a next day delivery and, amazingly- true to their word- we got it in less than 24 hours. Quality was excellent. The printing design and colours weren't blurred but very sharp and clear. Material was surprisingly think and not all flimsy at all. Excellent customer service and the product was very good value for money.

This is my go to print company for all marketing and event material. Fast turnaround, high quality products. Danny is so helpful and will help you however he can. We were so pleased with the gazebo, flags and marketing brochures we got printed. They managed to turn these around in just a few days too! Price cannot be compared, and neither can the service. Looking forward to ordering from you guys again.

We recently ordered two golf pop-up banners and couldn’t be happier with the service. The turnaround and delivery time were incredibly fast, and the quality of the banners is outstanding. We also spoke to the team on the phone before placing our order, and they were extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. A really smooth experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!

What a fantastic company! I contacted Danny at Essex Banners after having issues with another banner printing company. I was looking for a bespoke-sized banner for my gazebo within quite a short timeframe. Within an hour of making initial contact, Danny had confirmed my order and production had started straight away! My banner arrived within a week and I’m so pleased with it. A number of fellow stall holders commented on how great it looked too 🙂 Thank you so much, Danny!

Go Premium for your business-  Fabric Tension Backdrop

A fabric tension backdrop provides a vibrant, sophisticated display that commands attention. Whether you are looking for a high-impact solution for event photography or a sleek promotional wall for retail environments, these printed stretch fabric displays offer a seamless, professional finish every time.

Custom Design & Versatility

Every fabric tension backdrop can be fully customized. We print your graphics in high-definition to align perfectly with your branding and promotional goals. Because they are lightweight and durable, these backdrops are easily transported, assembled, and stored—allowing for repeated use across multiple campaigns. Plus, the fabric graphics are easily interchangeable, so you can update your message without buying a new hardware setup.

Premium Build Quality

Our tension systems are engineered for longevity and ease of use, consisting of two primary components:

• The Frame: A lightweight yet incredibly strong, tubular aluminium structure.

• The Graphic: A premium, printed 260gsm fabric cover tailored to fit the frame perfectly.

To achieve that signature “drum-tight” look, the fabric is pulled snugly over the frame and secured at the bottom with a heavy-duty zip fastening. This ensures your fabric tension backdrop remains wrinkle-free and professional from start to finish.

Fabric Tension Backdrops

A fabric tension backdrop is the premier solution for high-impact branding and professional event displays. Combining durability with a sleek aesthetic, each unit consists of two high-quality components: a lightweight, industrial-grade aluminium frame and a premium, custom-printed fabric cover.

Premium Materials & Precision Fit

Our fabric tension backdrop features a high-definition graphic printed on 260gsm stretch material. This specialized fabric is engineered to fit perfectly over the internal frame, creating a smooth, “drum-tight” surface that eliminates wrinkles. Once the fabric is slid into place, it is secured with a heavy-duty zip lining at the bottom to maintain consistent tension.

Effortless Assembly & Portability

Setting up your fabric tension backdrop is straightforward. While it can be managed by one person, we recommend a two-person assembly to have it show-ready in approximately 10 minutes. Each order includes a convenient carry bag designed to hold the hardware and, for smaller sizes, the fabric graphic as well.

Sustainable & Versatile Branding

Our stretch fabric walls are built for the long haul. The fabric is fully washable and can be recycled alongside other textiles. Because you can order replacement graphics to use with your existing frame, this fabric tension backdrop is a versatile, eco-friendly investment for your marketing toolkit.

Whats Included

Why Choose a Fabric Tension Backdrop?

Investing in a fabric tension backdrop is one of the smartest moves for your event or retail branding. Here’s why it’s a favorite for marketing professionals:  

1. Seamless, Wrinkle-Free Finish

Unlike traditional PVC banners that can crease or roll at the edges, the stretch fabric used in our backdrops is pulled tight across the frame. This creates a perfectly flat, “drum-tight” surface that looks flawless under professional lighting and in photography.  

2. High-Impact, Non-Reflective Graphics

Our fabric tension backdrops are printed using a dye-sublimation process on matte 260gsm fabric. This means you get vibrant, saturated colors without the annoying glare or reflections often caused by camera flashes or overhead stage lights.  

3. Ultimate Portability & Fast Setup

Don’t let the large size fool you. The entire system breaks down into a compact carry bag that fits easily into a standard car boot.  

• Tool-free assembly: Most frames snap together in under 10 minutes.  

• Lightweight: The aluminium hardware is strong but light enough for one person to move comfortably.

4. Eco-Friendly & Sustainable

In an era of “single-use” displays, the fabric tension backdrop stands out as a sustainable choice.

• Washable: Graphics can be machine-washed on a low heat to keep them looking brand new.  

• Reusable Hardware: Once you own the frame, you only need to order replacement “socks” (fabric covers) for future campaigns.

• Recyclable: The textile material can be recycled at the end of its lifespan.

5. Double-Sided Branding at No Extra Cost

Maximize your floor space by opting for a double-sided print. Whether you want the same design on both sides or two completely different marketing messages, our fabric tension backdrops offer 360-degree visibility to capture traffic from every angle.

Customers Images..

Don’t worry. We check every file before it prints.

Every order gets a free artwork check and a proof to approve. Nothing goes to print until you’ve said yes.

1. File type

PDF is best for the sharpest result, especially for text and logos. PNG or JPG are fine for photos and Canva designs. Got something else, like a Word document, PowerPoint or a phone photo? Send it anyway and we’ll tell you if it’ll work.

2. Size & shape

Design to the exact size of your banner, or the same shape (for example 2:1 for a 2m × 1m banner). If the shape is different, your artwork gets stretched or cropped.

  • Use our free template. It shows the exact size, the bleed area and the safe area.
  • Keep text and logos away from the edges. Edges are hemmed, stitched or wrapped round the frame, so anything too close can get cut off.
  • Roller banners: check you’ve ordered the same width you designed for (800mm and 850mm are different sizes).

3. Resolution (will it be sharp?)

Aim for 150dpi or higher at full size. For close-up items like roller banners, backdrops and tablecloths, 300dpi is ideal. Logos pulled off a website or social media are usually too low quality. If yours is, we’ll tell you before printing and help you find a better version.

4. Colour (will it match my brand?)

Screens show colour in RGB, but printers use CMYK, so bright reds, oranges and blues can print a little duller. For an exact brand match, send your CMYK or Pantone codes and we’ll match them. Deep blacks on fabric backdrops print slightly softer than on PVC. Ask us if a true black really matters for your design.

5. Made it in Canva or AI?

No problem. From Canva: download as PDF Print. AI-generated images often look great on screen but fall apart when blown up to banner size. Send it over and we’ll make it print-ready, or rebuild it if we need to.

6. Ordering more than one design?

Add each design to your basket separately and upload its own file. Then email us your order number, which file goes with which product, and how many of each.

7. No artwork? Not sure?

Send us your logo, your wording and any ideas, and our designers will put it together for you. Free artwork help comes with every order.

⏱ In a rush?

Get your artwork and payment to us by 11am for same-day printing. The sooner we have your file, the sooner we can check it and send your proof.

Real people, quick replies.

1. What is a stretch fabric wall?

A stretch fabric wall is a large, seamless display backdrop made from high-quality tension fabric that stretches over a lightweight aluminum frame. It’s commonly used for trade shows, exhibitions, conferences, and photo backdrops due to its professional look and portability.

2. What sizes do stretch fabric walls come in?

Stretch fabric walls come in a variety of sizes, typically ranging from 2.4m to 6m wide. Custom sizes are also available to fit specific event needs.

3. How is the print applied to the fabric?

Our stretch fabric walls use dye-sublimation printing, which ensures vibrant, long-lasting colors that won’t fade or crack over time. The graphics are printed directly onto the fabric, creating a seamless and high-quality finish.

4. Are stretch fabric walls easy to set up?

Yes! Stretch fabric walls feature a lightweight, tool-free aluminum frame that snaps together easily. The fabric sleeve simply stretches over the frame and zips up, providing a wrinkle-free, professional appearance in minutes.

5. Can I wash or replace the fabric graphic?

Yes! The fabric cover is machine washable on a gentle cycle, making it easy to keep your display looking fresh. Additionally, you can order replacement fabric prints without needing to buy a new frame, allowing you to update your branding or event messaging easily.

Our promise to you

Tell us the date. We’ll make sure you’re ready.

Whether it’s an event, a launch, a site opening or a big day, we know you’re not really buying a banner. You’re buying one less thing to worry about. Here’s what you can count on, every order.

1. Nothing prints until you’ve said yes

Every order gets a free artwork check and a proof to approve. We check the size, the resolution, the colours and the edges before anything goes near a printer. If something isn’t right, such as a blurry logo, the wrong size or colours that won’t print as you expect, we put the job on hold and tell you straight away.

2. We work to your deadline

Tell us when you need it and we’ll tell you honestly if we can do it, with clear prices for standard, express and same-day. Artwork and payment in by 11am means same-day printing on express orders. Left it late? You’re not the only one. Last-minute orders are what we do best.

3. A real person, not a checkout

Call, WhatsApp or email and you’ll speak to someone who knows your order. Not sure what size you need, or whether to get a roller banner or a step and repeat? No question is a silly question. We’ll give you honest advice, even if that means suggesting something cheaper.

4. Quality you’ll be proud to put up

Sharp print, strong materials and proper finishing. Before anything is packed, we check it’s the right material, the right quantity and the right finishing for your order.

  • Backdrops are rolled, never folded, so there are no crease marks.
  • Securely packed to arrive looking exactly as it should.

5. We keep you in the loop, and we put it right

You’ll get tracking as soon as your order leaves us. Couriers aren’t perfect, so if one lets you down, we chase it for you. And if we ever get something wrong, we’ll own it and put it right. No excuses, no runaround.
