Question
What is the difference between 13oz. Outdoor Vinyl and 13oz. Scrim Vinyl
Answer
Both are durable 13oz banner materials built to hold up outdoors, and the main distinction is how the vinyl is reinforced.
| Material | What it is | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 13oz Scrim Vinyl | Vinyl with a woven polyester scrim (mesh) layer inside for extra tear and stretch resistance. | The everyday workhorse banner for indoor and outdoor use. |
| 13oz Outdoor Vinyl | A 13oz weather-resistant outdoor banner grade with vivid, long-lasting print. | Storefronts, events, and general outdoor signage. |
- Both weigh 13oz and print with rich, full-color graphics.
- Choose scrim vinyl when tear and stretch resistance matter most, such as windy locations or banners that get handled often.
- Either material works well outdoors, so for most storefront and event banners you can pick based on availability and price.
