AirMesh is a 105gsm, 100% polyester display material that does the job of a banner with the behaviour of a flag: around 75% airflow so it thrives in wind, dye-sublimation printed for vibrant colour, and light enough to fold into a bag rather than roll into a tube. It's the PVC-free alternative for fencing, barriers, building wraps and outdoor campaigns — and like everything we print, a real person checks your artwork first. Every order also helps restore forests through our Print A Tree project.

Artwork made easy
Every order includes a free artwork check by a real person — you don't need to ask. If we spot a problem, we'll contact you before anything gets printed.
Supply your artwork as a print-ready PDF in CMYK with fonts outlined or embedded. One AirMesh-specific requirement: the fully colour-coded hems need 135mm of bleed in your artwork. Not sure how to set that up? Send your file over and we'll check it for free — or help you prepare it — before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
What is AirMesh polyester? ›
AirMesh is a lightweight 105gsm, 100% polyester display material with around 75% airflow — part banner, part flag. It's dye-sublimation printed, fire-rated to DIN 4102-1-B1, and works as a PVC-free alternative for outdoor banners, fencing graphics and building wraps.
Is AirMesh better than a PVC banner? ›
For many outdoor jobs, yes. A full-sized Heras fencing banner in AirMesh (3375 × 1780mm) weighs around 0.8kg versus roughly 1.9kg in PVC, it folds flat for transport instead of needing to be rolled around a core, its airflow handles wind better than solid or mesh PVC, and being 100% polyester it suits organisations with policies that restrict PVC. Solid PVC still wins where you need a fully opaque, rigid-hanging graphic.
Does AirMesh work in windy conditions? ›
That's exactly what it's built for. Around 75% of air passes through the material, dramatically reducing wind load, and the triple-folded reinforced hems handle the stress — so it outperforms both solid PVC and mesh PVC in breezy or exposed locations.
Is AirMesh fire-rated? ›
Yes — AirMesh is fire-rated to DIN 4102-1-B1, which many venues, councils and event organisers require for display materials.
Can AirMesh banners be washed and re-used? ›
Yes. The dye-sublimation inks are heat-fixed into the fabric rather than sitting on the surface, which makes the printed graphic scuff-resistant and washable — well suited to campaigns that get re-deployed.
How are AirMesh banners delivered? ›
Folded, in bags or boxes — light and easy to transport, with no long tubes. Unlike PVC, folding doesn't damage the material, so it can be packed down again for storage between uses.
What artwork do I need for AirMesh? ›
A print-ready PDF in CMYK with fonts outlined or embedded, plus 135mm of bleed to allow for the fully colour-coded hems. Every order gets a free artwork check by a real person, so if the bleed or anything else needs attention we'll tell you before printing.
