Answering the Call

Challenge

The client needed a grand mesh banner for the opening and halftime of a major soccer game, in double time. It’s Friday afternoon at 1:30, the regular printer is unavailable (it is Friday) and game time is at 8:00 p.m. — that same night. Adding to the challenge, the banner is round. That’s when the client called XL Digital Imaging.

Solution

Realizing the importance of this particular banner, both the sponsor and the XL Digital Imaging team quickly went into action. The four-man team printed in panels 13′ x 65′, cutting each panel as it was printed so finishing could be done simultaneously. The panels were trimmed and RF welded together and sewn in a perfect arc. The total project was printed and completed in an amazing five hours.

Result

To ensure on-time delivery, XL Digital Imaging owner, Raj Persad, loaded the finished banner in his car and personally delivered it, arriving in plenty of time. The team and sponsor had a perfect display at game time and halftime, and XL Digital Imaging scored a perfect display of teamwork.
