About Our Entrance Carpets

Our entrance carpets come cut to order and are completely fabricated in our warehouse. They are available in any size and any color. We can even print your company logo, design, or message right on the carpet. The edges are hemmed and the carpets are backed in nylon fiber to prevent fraying. Carpets are reusable and can be cleaned with standard household equipment.

We offer two styles of carpet customization, inlay logo carpets, and custom dyed carpets. Inlay carpets provide an affordable solution to those seeking a simple logo placement on a carpet - best for occasional use. Custom dyed carpets are great for elaborate designs and logos, permanent installations, or events expecting heavy foot-traffic. We will not screen print on any carpet, as the result is cheap and wears off easily. Don’t be fooled by anyone offering this service. Please send us your logo so we can determine what is best for you.

Choose from a variety colors below, or request a specific match from the Pantone color library. Please send us your desired PMS color. If you require materials samples mailed to you, please call us.

Hollywood Carpet Color Choices

About Our Backdrops, Banners, and Signage

All of our large format vinyl and signage is created though our strategic partner, bluemedia of Tempe, Arizona. bluemedia is a leading provider of large format vinyl printing and design. All prints are made on industry standard 3M vinyl. Your choice of 14oz vinyl, 10oz vinyl, or 9oz mesh vinyl. Our prints are the highest quality available. Don’t waste your time or money dealing with office supply stores or franchised printing companies.

Red Carpet Backdrop Banner Material Choices

Make Money with Red Carpet Entrances or Increase Your Event Sponsorship Revenue

How can you generate more money for your event, venue, or foundation? Purchase a custom backdrop banner or even a custom carpet and sell sponsor spots on the material. It’s an easy way to recuperate your costs or even become profitable. Create great photo opportunities branded with your sponsor’s logo! It’s guaranteed exposure for them! Where ever your photos wind up, so will your sponsors. Watch these photos pop up on social networks and all over the web. Everyone loves a red carpet photo as their profile picture! Watermark your images for additional revenue opportunities! Suddenly you will go from spending money, to making money. Still not sold? How do you think we started? We enhanced hundreds of events with our custom entrances and before we could even see it coming we were helping others become successful with the same model. Put your customers and supporters in the spotlight and they will love you for it!
