Vinyl

Vinyl is the large printed plastic sheet, usually PVC, that carries the ad on most static bulletins.

OAAA lists PVC, a type of vinyl, as a common material for bulletins and posters. Some posters use polyethylene (PE) instead, which can be recycled.

A bulletin vinyl prints as one piece, with 6 inches of bleed on each side. Its edges are hemmed, often with welded pockets, so crews can pull it tight.

Vinyl is usually billed as production, apart from the space.
