Custom cloth banners combine premium appearance with lightweight construction and vibrant color to create memorable displays for sports facilities, campuses, event venues, trade shows, and corporate environments.
They help recognize championships, transform blank walls, create an event backdrop, and reinforce your brand. AMI’s cloth banners provide a polished solution that stands out without the expense of a major renovation.
Unlike other signage options, cloth banners deliver a refined, non-reflective finish that looks exceptional under arena lighting and in gymnasiums, convention centers, and atriums. Their versatility, custom sizing, and professional appearance make them a favorite for organizations looking to create lasting impressions.
Cloth banners are designed to do more than display a logo or message. They transform underutilized spaces into vibrant branding opportunities that celebrate achievements, inspire audiences, and create memorable experiences.
They are perfect for:
Cloth banners can be suspended from rafters, displayed on walls, or incorporated into a custom hardware system, creating a professional look while remaining lightweight and easy to install.
Some of the most recognizable athletic facilities in the country rely on cloth banners to showcase their history and accomplishments. When Boston College wanted to modernize the appearance of Conte Forum, AMI Graphics replaced aging felt championship banners with digitally printed cloth banners produced in their official maroon and gold colors.
The new double-sided banners refreshed the arena, improved brand consistency, and created a perfect balance of a major upgrade and preserving tradition and legacy.
That same approach can be used to recognize:
As part of AMI’s dye sublimation fabric graphics portfolio, cloth banners utilize a specialized printing method to achieve the deep, striking colors and elegant, matte texture our clients expect. This technology also powers SEG (Silicone Edge Graphic) displays, which provide a clean, borderless appearance when integrated into a permanent frame system.
Custom cloth banners are the ideal solution for versatile applications, such as suspending graphics from gymnasium rafters or mounting them to interior walls with custom finishing. In contrast, SEG is a premium choice for high-end retail environments or exhibit booths where a perfectly flat, tensioned fabric presentation is required.

Cloth banners are the preferred choice for many indoor applications due to:
Premium Appearance: Soft fabric creates a polished, professional look that complements athletic facilities, campuses, event spaces, and corporate interiors.
Rich Color Reproduction: Digitally printed fabric graphics deliver vibrant colors and sharp details that showcase logos, branding, and photography beautifully.
Reduced Glare: Unlike reflective materials, cloth banners photograph well and are easy to view in all lighting conditions.
Lightweight Construction: Cloth banners are easier to transport, install, remove, and store than many permanent signage solutions.
Seasonal campaigns, recurring events, and annual recognition programs can be improved without replacing permanent signage, which provides long-term value for organizations that regularly refresh their messaging. Custom cloth banners supply a timeless solution that combines flexibility, durability, and visual impact.
Cloth banners are commonly used for championship displays, school branding, trade shows, corporate environments, event backdrops, donor recognition, and large interior graphics where a premium appearance is desired.
Double-sided cloth banners are ideal for gymnasiums, arenas, atriums, and other open spaces where graphics must be visible from multiple directions. Block-out materials can also be incorporated to prevent show-through.
Cloth banners can be produced in virtually any size or shape. Rectangular, chevron, and dove tail designs are among the most popular, but custom profiles are also available.
Every banner is custom finished to match your existing hardware, whether that includes pole pockets, grommets, cable systems, or other installation methods.
For indoor environments, cloth provides a softer, more refined appearance with reduced glare, lightweight handling, and vibrant printed graphics, making it an excellent choice for athletic facilities, event venues, and corporate spaces.
