Information screens, banners and signs

We have information screens in all campus cities. You may be able to have your event featured on some of the information screens. The screens are used for information of a general nature but can – depending on the physical location – also be used for targeted communication to specific target groups.

Banners at the Campus Square, SDU Odense

SDU Odense has space for banners at the Campus Square. Here you can hang two banners measuring 150x400 cm with double-sided printing. There must always be two banners hanging at a time.

SDU Communications applies the following guidelines when determining whether a banner may be displayed in connection with your event:

1. Large-scale on-site events with open access are always given first priority, i.e. Open Day, the Festival of Research, the Annual University Celebration and the Semester Start Party.
2. Second priority is given to events with a broad appeal but intended for internal employees, e.g. job fairs, career fairs, Student Fair, etc.
3. Banners are reserved for physical events. There are a few exceptions, such as special campaigns/initiatives prioritised by the Executive Board, including the SDU Elections and the Study Environment Survey.

To use the banner spaces, the following procedure must be followed:

1. Contact SDU Communications to obtain permission. Write to Mimo at mantabi@sdu.dk with the desired dates and a brief description of the purpose and layout of the banners.
2. Write to Technical Services at 8888@sdu.dk to make arrangements for the installation of banners. Please provide the desired dates for installation and removal, and indicate whether you would like the banners returned to you after the display period.
3. Order banners via the Graphic Center. Banners MUST be produced at the Graphic Center at SDU. Remember to order two banners, i.e. two front prints and two back prints. The Graphic Center can assist with both the graphic design and the printing of banners. Read more about ordering graphic design
4. Make sure that banners are delivered to the reception at the Campus Square no later than the day before the agreed installation date. The banners can be collected from the reception desk within three working days of being taken down.

Banners elsewhere

Apart from the two banner spaces at the Campus Square in Odense, there are no other designated banner display areas. If you would like to request other display areas in Odense or banner display areas in Kolding, Esbjerg or Sønderborg, this must be approved by Technical Services. Send an email well in advance with requests for format, locations, duration, purpose and event name to 8888@sdu.dk.

Roll-up banners are a flexible and practical solution for signage at events at SDU.

Design and print your roll-up banner

1. Create your design
   Use the SDU template for roll-up banners, which you can customise with colours, images and text that match SDU’s visual identity.
   If you need help with the design, please contact the Graphic Center.
   
   
2. Order print job
   Once your design is ready, you can order printing through the Graphic Center’s webshop.
   The file must be in PDF format.

Fire certification requirements

All roll-up banners used at SDU must be printed on fire-retardant material meeting at least the following standards: NEN EN 71-2 / NTA-8007 / B1.

This requirement is met by ordering your prints through the Graphic Center.

Advantages of roll-up banners

1. Easy setup
   Roll-up banners can be quickly set up without damaging walls, floors or other surfaces. They are therefore suitable for temporary events.
2. Flexibility
   Roll-up banners are easy to move around and can be easily adapted as needed, e.g. in relation to escape routes and security.
3. Professional appearance
   Roll-up banners give a presentable appearance and can be designed to support the visual identity of the event.
4. Durability
   Roll-up banners are made of robust materials and can be reused, making them an economical solution for repeat events.

Tips for using roll-up banners

• Placement
  Place roll-up banners where they are visible to participants, such as at entrances, registration areas and information desks.
  The location must be approved by Technical Services at 8888@sdu.dk.
• Maintenance
  Store roll-up banners properly when not in use. To extend their lifespan, avoid exposing them to moisture and direct sunlight.
