Question

Can a banner be folded without getting wrinkled and showing creases at the folds?

Answer

It depends on the material. The two main banner types are vinyl and fabric. Vinyl banners can be folded, but folding will leave creases along the fold lines. Fabric banners handle folding far more gracefully.

If your banner needs to be folded for transport or storage without visible crease lines, fabric is the better choice.
