You can turn a simple band of paper into a powerful branding tool that draws attention, communicates key information and elevates perceived value. By designing your banderoles with targeted motifs, slogans or product details, you control the first impression your customer receives.
Use banderoles on books, clothing, gifts and napkins to add flair and function. For packaging, the banderole doubles as a visual accent and a seal: if it’s intact, your customer knows the product is new. In the food sector banderoles are popular for chocolates and pralines to increase perceived quality and tell a story about the product.
Warning: paper and inks are not food safe and must only be used when an outer food-safe packaging is present. Also note that banderoles are supplied without fastening material such as adhesive dots; plan ahead to order suitable labels or seals if you need them to stay closed.
You can choose from five formats (including narrow and extra-wide options), and the print area equals the banderole surface so your design uses the entire available space. Printing supports CMYK photography and can be combined with special colours like Pantone for exact brand matches; a screenproof can be ordered if you want a digital preview.
Select from a wide range of papers to match your product positioning: sustainable options (grass paper, 100% recycled) for eco-focused brands, premium coated art papers in multiple weights with matt or glossy finishes, and fine textured papers for luxury items. The 275 gsm grass paper with visible grass fibres offers a particularly natural look.
You can order as few as one banderole or up to 2,500 per job, with production in multiple versions possible and a priority option for faster turnaround. For high-quality printing, fast delivery and economical runs, place your order with Print & Graphics.
When you customise banderoles, you give your products an immediate visual signature that sets them apart on shelf and online. By using full-surface printing, CMYK photography or matching your corporate hues with special colours like Pantone, you ensure consistent brand recognition and a premium look. Choosing the right paper and finish—matte, glossy or textured fine papers—lets you control both appearance and tactile perception so your packaging speaks as loudly as your logo.
Your design can include slogans, descriptive text or event information, and the banderole can function as a protective sleeve or seal that signals product integrity. Selecting high-weight or specialty papers such as grass paper or 100% recycled stocks gives you a visible sustainability message that resonates with eco-conscious customers and enhances perceived value.
Personalisation turns generic packaging into a targeted sales tool: you can run single-piece editions for gifts, short runs for seasonal promos or up to 2,500 banderoles per order in multiple versions to support product lines. Variable motifs, limited editions and bespoke colours help you tell stories, boost unboxing moments and increase perceived exclusivity, all of which strengthen customer loyalty and conversion.
Use banderoles across product categories—books, apparel, confections and more—to add branding and functional information, but be aware that paper and colours are not food safe and should only be used when an outer packaging is present. Also note practical details like the absence of fastening material in the standard supply; ordering matching labels or adhesive dots will keep your presentation intact.
For production flexibility you can choose from multiple sizes and paper weights, request a screenproof for a digital preview, or combine CMYK with special colours for exact colour matching; these options let you balance cost, turnaround and finish to meet your goals. If you want fast, reliable service and competitive pricing, order your customised banderoles from Print & Graphics and specify priority production when you need express delivery.
You want your banderoles to make an immediate impression, so choose from a range of high-quality papers that match your product's positioning. For sustainable projects, grass paper and 100% recycled paper—notably the 275 gsm grass paper with natural fibre inclusions and a warm brown tone—deliver an authentic, tactile look that signals eco-friendly value to your customers.
For a premium finish, select coated art papers available in weights from 115–250 gsm with matt or glossy options, or opt for fine papers in chamois, ribbed, bright white or linen for a refined touch. Offset papers (120 and 170 gsm) and premium stocks are compatible with conventional printers, so you can personalise banderoles post-print. Paper and colours are not food safe and should therefore only be used if an outer packaging is available!
You can keep it simple with a bold one-colour black print or use CMYK to reproduce photos and complex motifs with vibrant detail. CMYK gives you the flexibility to print full-colour imagery and subtle gradients that bring packaging and labels to life.
Combine CMYK with special colours (e.g., Pantone) when your brand demands exact colour matching or when you want to flood the banderole with a single, consistent tone. Request a screenproof / digital preview for a small extra charge to preview colour fidelity before the full run.
Print runs start at 1 piece and scale up to 2,500 banderoles per order with support for up to 10 versions; if you need speed, choose the priority option for express production and delivery from Print & Graphics.
You can choose from five standard formats — narrow 35 x 520 mm and 35 x 550 mm, wide 60 x 280 mm and 60 x 400 mm, and extra-wide 200 x 250 mm — or ask for custom dimensions to fit a specific product. Keep in mind that the banderoles' area corresponds to the print area, so any design you create fills the entire surface; that makes it easy to preview how artwork and text will appear, but also means you must get measurements right before printing.
Standard sizes typically lower unit costs and speed up production, while custom dimensions give you full control over fit and impact for irregular or oversized items. Factor in paper choice and finishing (CMYK or special colours) when deciding, and note that fastening material is not included — you should plan to order labels or adhesive separately if you need a sealed band.
Different formats let you tailor banderoles to function and presentation: narrow bands work well for napkins, chocolate bars, and slim books; wider bands create a premium wrap for clothing or boxed products; extra-wide bands give you a visible canvas for large items or detailed branding. The availability of five formats and over 20 paper options means you can match look and feel to your product category and positioning.
Choosing the right format also affects how you communicate with buyers — a narrow band can act as a seal and quick label, while a larger band lets you include descriptive text, promotions, or imagery. For food items, be aware that paper and colours are not food safe, so you must use an outer packaging if the banderole contacts food.
When selecting format and material, measure product dimensions carefully, plan for overlap or gaps, and align your chosen paper (grass, 100% recycled, coated art, or premium fine paper) with your brand values and handling needs; also consider run size options from one piece up to 2,500 pieces and the availability of priority production if you need faster delivery.
When you order larger runs, the math works in your favor: setup and plate costs are spread across more units, so the unit price drops substantially when you print up to 2,500 banderoles. If you need multiple designs, the option to produce up to 10 versions in a single order lets you combine economies of scale with variety, keeping overall costs lower than repeated small runs.
Material choice and finishing affect price, so selecting common paper stocks or standard CMYK printing will keep expenses down, while special colours or premium papers increase cost but raise perceived value. Taking advantage of batch printing also reduces your per-item logistics and handling costs over time, especially if you plan seasonal or ongoing product runs.
Your workflow becomes straightforward: upload your print-ready files, choose one of five formats, pick paper and colour options, and select quantity — up to 2,500 pieces. You can add a screenproof for a digital preview at a small extra charge to avoid costly errors. For faster turnaround you can opt for the priority/express service, which accelerates production and shipping.
Be aware that banderoles are supplied without fastening material, so you should order compatible labels or adhesive dots to seal them, especially if the banderole is meant to act as a tamper indicator. Also note the safety limitation: paper and colours are not food safe, so you must provide an outer packaging if the printed band will touch edible products.
To minimize delays, prepare your files with correct bleed, resolution, and color profiles; allow extra time and budget when using Pantone or other special colours due to setup requirements. You can print as few as one piece for samples, but scaling to the full run unlocks the greatest savings and the fastest per-piece turnaround. For tight deadlines, factor in the extra fee for priority production and express shipping so your schedule and costs stay aligned.
Buyers frequently praise the print fidelity and the range of high-quality papers, noting that grass and recycled stocks give products a premium, eco-friendly look that customers respond to. You’ll see consistent comments about how a well-designed banderole elevates perceived value—especially for books, clothing, and confectionery—so investing in a stronger paper or special-colour print often pays off.
On the other hand, shoppers warn about practical pitfalls: the banderoles are supplied without fastening material, so you must plan to order labels or adhesive separately, and the papers and inks are not food safe, so do not apply them directly to unwrapped food. Many recommend ordering a screenproof or sample to avoid surprises with colour matching or fit, and to check format dimensions carefully before finalising your order.
To make your banderoles work harder for your brand, pair them with complementary items like labels on sheets or labels on rolls, adhesive dots, custom boxes, and matching hangtags. These extras help you create a cohesive unboxing experience and provide functional benefits—seals for product security, clear branding cues on packaging, and easy in-store application that saves time.
Combine paper choices and print methods strategically: choose sustainable papers like grass or 100% recycled for eco-focused lines, and use Pantone/special colours to reproduce your corporate identity precisely across banderoles, boxes, and flyers. Using consistent materials and colours across related products reinforces recognition and gives your range a uniform, professional appearance.
Practical tips from other sellers: order matching labels to seal the banderoles, request a sample or screenproof before large runs, consider the extra-wide formats for larger items, and factor in the print capacity (you can print up to 2,500 pieces per order) and the priority option for faster delivery if you’re on a deadline.
So you can use banderoles to enhance presentation, convey information and seal products while choosing from multiple formats, high-quality papers (including grass and recycled options) and CMYK or Pantone special colours to match your branding. You should select the paper weight and finish that suit the product — narrow or extra-wide formats, matt or glossy, or textured premium stocks — and plan for sealing materials since banderoles are supplied without adhesive.
You can order single pieces for bespoke gifts or up to 2,500 units in multiple versions, with priority printing and express shipping available when you need them fast; place your order with Print & Graphics to access professional proofing options and scalable production that aligns with your timelines and quality standards.
A: A banderole is a fine paper band placed around books or products to attract attention and provide information. Historically a small banner used by nobles, modern banderoles are used on books, clothing, confectionery, napkins and other packaged goods as decoration, branding, product information or as a tamper-indicating seal when paired with an outer package.
A: Five formats are available including portrait and landscape: narrow 35 x 520 mm and 35 x 550 mm; wide 60 x 280 mm and 60 x 400 mm; and extra-wide 200 x 250 mm for large products. The banderole area equals the print area so designs can use the entire surface.
A: Options include grass paper (notably 275 gsm with visible grass fibres), 100% recycled paper, premium papers (100–130 gsm in chamois, ribbed, bright white and linen), coated art papers (115–250 gsm, matt or glossy) and offset papers (120 and 170 gsm). Choose sustainable papers for eco-friendly products.
A: Yes. You can print in CMYK for photos and full-colour motifs, or add special colours (e.g., Pantone) to reproduce exact corporate colours or print a full-surface spot colour. A digital screenproof is available for a small extra charge to preview the result before final printing.
A: Orders start from a single piece and the shop can produce up to 2,500 banderoles per order, with up to 10 different versions. A priority option (additional charge) speeds production and dispatch by express. Order fulfilment and options are available through Print & Graphics.
