Tabletop Pull-Up Banner

An 11" x 18" retractable banner sized for a counter, a table or a reception desk. Same mechanism as a full-size pull-up, scaled down — printed full color on 13oz matte vinyl and supplied with its own metal stand. Next-business-day production available.

• 11" x 18" print area — the right scale for a tabletop without dominating it

• Matte vinyl — readable at close range with no glare
• Next-business-day production available

Where a tabletop banner beats a floor banner

Trade show tables, farmers market stalls, reception desks, conference registration counters, salon and clinic front desks, and pop-up retail. In all of them a floor banner is either impossible or overkill: there is no floor space, or the person you are talking to is already two feet away.

At close range the rules of banner design change. Nobody needs a headline readable at thirty feet; they need specific information they can read while standing at the counter. That makes tabletop banners good at things a floor banner is bad at — a short price list, a three-step process, today's specials, a QR code someone can actually reach with their phone.

Designing for close reading

Use the full width; at 11" there is no room for wide margins. Body type can drop to a normal reading size because the viewer is at arm's length, so you can fit real information rather than slogans. Put the QR code at the vertical center rather than the bottom, where it is easiest to scan.

Supply artwork at 11" x 18" at 150 DPI in CMYK, with 1" of extra image at the bottom that retracts into the cassette and 0.5" of safe margin at each side.

Using tabletop and floor banners together

The strongest booth setups use both: a 33" floor banner behind the table to pull people in from the aisle with one big message, and a tabletop banner on the table with the detail they need once they have arrived. Keep the two visually consistent — same colors, same logo placement — so the setup reads as one display rather than two separate signs.
