A standee banner is a large, self-standing display that is used in promotion. Generally, standees are portable and changeable creating an economical marketing option.
The size, weight and height can vary depending on your needs and space requirements. The options are endless, and you can create many different layers to add into your signage marketing campaign. They can be used indoors and out, catching the attention of passersby and pedestrians.
