Custom Pull Up Banner Melbourne
Pull-up banners (also known as roll-up banners, retractable banners or standing banners) are one of the fastest ways to make an impact at a trade show, pop-up store, conference or in-store display. They’re lightweight, portable, and set up in seconds — giving you maximum visibility with zero hassle.
Printed in high resolution and built to last, our banners are designed to make a lasting impression wherever you take them. Whether you’re promoting your brand at a conference, event, or retail environment, our custom pull-up banners help you stand out and capture attention.
At DTPS, based in Somerville on the Mornington Peninsula, we print pull up banners for businesses right across Melbourne and Victoria. Every banner is fully customisable — size, design, base, and finish — to match your brand.

Why Melbourne Businesses Use Pull Up Banners
Pull up banners earn their place in the marketing toolkit because they’re one of the rare signage formats that are:
- Genuinely portable — the full stand folds into a padded carry bag that fits in a car boot
- Fast to deploy — one person can set up or pack down in under a minute
- Reusable — the base can be re-skinned with fresh artwork for your next campaign
- Cost-effective — a fraction of the price of a printed wall or media display
- High visual impact — 2 metres of vertical real estate at eye level
They also work where other signage can’t pop-up retail, conference foyers, reception fit-outs, school open days, real estate auctions, market stalls and indoor activations. For a deeper look at the broader category, read our guide on what banner printing is.

Design Tips That Actually Work
A pull up banner has about three seconds to communicate. Simple beats clever every time.
- Put your logo at the top — crowds and other displays often block the lower half
- One headline, one message — if your visitor needs to read a paragraph, the banner has failed
- Large, legible typography — minimum 70pt headline, 28pt body
- Strong contrast — dark text on light background or vice versa
- Include a call to action — website, QR code, phone number or booth number
- Leave white space — cluttered banners look cheap, even with great artwork

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a pull up banner?
A pull up banner is a portable retractable display consisting of a printed vinyl or fabric graphic that extends vertically from a weighted aluminium base, supported by a pole. It's designed for fast setup, easy transport and reuse across multiple events.
What is the standard size of a pull up banner in Australia?
The standard Australian pull up banner size is 850mm wide by 2000mm high. Other common sizes include 600×1600mm (mini), 1000×2000mm (wide) and 1200×2000mm (extra wide).
How much does a pull up banner cost in Melbourne?
Entry-level pull up banners start from around $90–$150, while premium banners with heavy-duty bases and longer warranties range from $180–$350. Pricing depends on size, material, base type and quantity. Contact DTPS for a custom Melbourne quote.
Are pull up banners and roll up banners the same thing?
Yes. "Pull up banner," "roll up banner" and "retractable banner" all describe the same product, a printed graphic housed in a self-retracting base.
How long does pull up banner printing take?
At DTPS, standard turnaround is 3–5 business days from artwork approval. Rush orders can often be completed in 24–48 hours for Melbourne and Mornington Peninsula clients.
What file format should I supply for a pull up banner?
Supply a high-resolution print-ready PDF set to CMYK colour mode at 150–300 DPI, with 10mm bleed and fonts outlined. Keep critical content at least 100mm above the bottom edge.
Can pull up banners be used outdoors?
Pull up banners are designed for indoor use. They can catch the wind easily and the bases aren't weighted for outdoor conditions. For outdoor events, consider PVC banners, teardrop flags or feather banners instead.
Are pull up banners reusable?
Yes. The hardware is designed for repeated use and the printed graphic can be replaced with a new cartridge when you want to refresh your message, saving you the cost of a full new stand.
What's the difference between a standard and premium pull up banner?
Standard banners use a silver anodised aluminium base and typically carry a 12-month warranty. Premium banners have a heavier, more stable base, a cleaner finish, and warranties of up to 3 years — better suited to frequent travel and repeated use.
Can I get a double-sided pull up banner?
Yes. Double-sided banners show different artwork (or the same) on both faces, which is useful when foot traffic passes from both directions — trade show aisles, shopping centres and reception areas.
How do I set up a pull up banner?
Stand the base upright, extend the support pole (usually three bungee-connected sections), insert the pole into the base socket, then pull the banner up from the cassette and hook the top rail onto the pole. The whole process takes under 30 seconds.
How do I store and care for a pull up banner?
Fully retract the banner into the base, store it in the padded carry bag, and keep it in a cool, dry place. Don't stack heavy items on top, and wipe clean with a soft dry cloth when needed.
