StormSpill® brackets & banners

Our StormSpill® bracket system is designed specifically for reliable lamppost banner installations. More than 18,500 pairs were specified and installed for the London 2012 Olympic Games, with zero failures.

The brackets comply with UK highways and street-lighting requirements and are manufactured using high-pressure, pore-free die casting to provide a consistent, durable installation.

We combine these brackets with high-quality banner materials and finishing, professional installation and ongoing campaign maintenance.

Quality
Strong

A triple-stitch finish, adopted from the sailing industry, allows for greater strength than other processes.

Eco-friendly

HP water-based inks and European REACH-compliant fabrics for safe, photographic standard prints.

Durable

Our slow-rolled stainless steel banding makes our installations up to five times stronger than similar systems.

Reliable

Our banners are made without eyelets. This trebles their strength, reducing storm damage and maintenance costs.

Secure

Our spring-tensioning system dramatically reduces loading on columns caused by extreme weather conditions.

Protected

Our brackets include a protective layer of damp-proof course to shield the lamppost column.

Client Testimonials

I have been working with Bay Media with Theatre Royal Stratford East for several years on lamppost banner campaigns and have always had a great experience. They are very accommodating, friendly and helpful and we've had lots of comments on how great the banners look! Would highly recommend.

We had a really great experience working with Bay Media for a recent lampost banner campaign. They worked really hard to accomodate us at short notice, and their whole team was friendly and speedy! It was fab to walk around the city and see our campaign artwork on display. Writing this review on behalf of Brighton MET College Marketing Team!

We've used Bay Media for the last few years now to highlight our brand during our busiest times of year, and can say that it works - members of the public have noticed the street banners and have let us know. Great and different way of raising visibility for any brand or organisation.

We've used Bay Media for the last 4 years to advertise our festival. We've found them to be friendly, flexible, and quick to amend things if anything does go wrong. Their lamppost banners are a great way to raise awareness of an event across a city.

Guarantee & response

Bay Media offer a 12-month guarantee on all lamppost banner installations from the date of installation. If any banners become damaged due to adverse weather conditions, they will be removed/repaired free-of-charge within 2 hours if they are perceived to be a risk to the public, and then re-printed and re-installed free-of-charge within a maximum of 7 working days, but where possible sooner. 

Upon each new installation or banner changeover, Bay Media’s installation teams carry out a full audit of each bracket, ensuring that they are in working order. If there are any issues with the brackets, they will either be repaired or replaced free-of-charge. As and when Bay Media develop a new bracket system, this will be phased in where required, starting with areas most susceptible to more adverse weather conditions.

 This 12-month bracket guarantee covers all call-out charges, labour, and re-printing, with no exclusions. Where there is a demand for banners to remain in place for over 12 months at a time without changeover, which from experience is rarely the case, Bay Media would advise a maintenance check to be carried out to ensure the banner integrity, which can be carried out as part of a periodical banner audit for long term campaigns.
