At Waterfront Brisbane, the vision extended far beyond what was being built inside the site. From day one, the project team understood that this location — one of Brisbane’s most visible areas — demanded more than a standard construction boundary.
At its core, the program is the City’s way of reducing the visual impact of construction in busy public areas while giving artists visibility across Sydney.
For project teams, the real impact of graffiti is not just the direct replacement cost, but the time spent coordinating suppliers, managing access, and restoring presentation while the site boundary remains visible to the public.

Wrapped around the perimeter of The Store in Newcastle West, premium vinyl banner hoardings gave the project a presence well before construction began to define it. Refined branding. Polished concept imagery. Clean, uninterrupted panels stretching along a busy urban edge.
Graffiti can appear within days of installation, particularly in metro and high-traffic areas. Once a site is targeted, repeat vandalism is common. The real cost isn’t just the effort required to remove it, but the broader impact that follows — damaged brand perception, replacement panels, unexpected variations, delays, and reputational risk.
Choosing banner mesh isn’t about selecting the “best” product — it’s about choosing the right solution for your site conditions and project goals. Whether your priority is branding, wind performance, durability, or long-term site presentation, Sitemax can help you specify the right banner mesh solution from day one.
By reinforcing the edge — where failures most commonly occur — EdgeX significantly reduces the frequency of common banner mesh issues. Panels are less likely to flap after strong winds, corners hold their shape, and the need for repeated patch repairs is minimised.
A tight, clean, professionally presented perimeter signals confidence. It suggests a well-managed project and a developer who cares about detail. A sagging, distorted fence line quietly suggests the opposite — even if the build behind it is exceptional. In that sense, the fence line isn’t just site infrastructure. It’s part of the product you’re bringing to market.
EdgeX isn’t a design upgrade. It’s brand governance — a way of controlling the cues your site sends long after installation, when perception is shaped by maintenance, alignment, and restraint rather than messaging alone (Aaker & Joachimsthaler 2012; Keller & Swaminathan 2019).
Most generic cable ties aren’t designed to handle dynamic wind loads. When wind pressure builds across banner mesh, that force transfers directly to the fixings. If the tie can’t handle it, it doesn’t wear out — it snaps.
Weather events, site traffic, and day-to-day activity can all take a toll on banner mesh over time. Left unchecked, small issues like loosened fixings or minor movement can gradually turn into visible sagging, misalignment, or damage that undermines the presentation of the site.
By strengthening the part of the banner mesh that normally fails and giving you black or white edge options that don’t interfere with your branding, EdgeX™ keeps your site looking tight, clean and intentional from day one through to handover.
When your fence line is managed strategically, you take complete control of the narrative from day one. Everyone who walks, drives, or looks past your site sees a project that’s organised, intentional, and actively managed, not left to chance. That level of control builds confidence long before any construction work has even begun.
Your fence line secures your site, but it also sets expectations long before the first structure is complete, making it one of the most powerful, yet overlooked branding tools on site.
FlameX guarantees your containment products have been tested and certified in compliance with Australian Industry Standards for safe, compliant scaffold containment.
Banner mesh eyelets are often metal or nylon, and both influence reusability, longevity, visual condition, and overall banner mesh performance differently.
Choosing the right banner mesh roll to match the dimensions of your temp fence enhances durability, ease of installation, and overall fit - but many get it wrong.
Banner mesh can be printed in any colour and choosing a lighter or darker background can significantly impact your project's privacy, visibility and overall appearance.

From site evaluation to signage installation, we're shaping Sydney's urban landscapes - one creative hoarding at a time.
Construction sites are inherently risky environments, and the importance of maintaining a high standard of health and safety cannot be overstated.
Hoardings serve as a protective barrier between construction sites and the public. Unfortunately, these hoardings are often targeted by vandals who use them as a canvas for graffiti. Graffiti removal can be costly, often resulting in smeared artwork or compromised vinyl that requires total hoarding replacement...
Innovation remains at the forefront of everything we do, we invest in research and development because it enables us to produce new and improved products for the construction industry.

This year we held a competition for our customers and LinkedIn connections to go in the draw to WIN a $50 Visa Gift Card by suggesting a name for our brand new EFI Q5r printer.
We're committed to reducing our carbon footprint and contributing to a more sustainable future by investing in new materials that will revolutionise the way construction and other industries advertise.
There are a lot of misconceptions about using bannermesh in a high-wind area, or on a particularly windy site.
Whether it’s for wind, rain or dust protection, containment sheeting is a necessity on many job sites so why not take the opportunity to do a bit of advertising? We have two options for getting your logo out there!
