What are modular exhibition stands?

Modular exhibition stands are innovative systems for creating backdrops and stands for use at trade shows, exhibitions, and promotional events. The modular nature of these systems means that they can be configured into an endless variety of dynamic shapes and setups. These systems have a frame that forms the structure of the stand, to which custom printed graphics are attached. A wide range of accessories such as digital screens, counters, and banners are available for these modular exhibitions systems, ideal for creating an immersive and high-impact display.

Where are these exhibition systems typically used?

These modular exhibition systems are popular tools for a range of promotional events, including exhibitions, trade shows, product launches, expos, careers fairs, and more. The ease of setting up these stands makes them ideal for temporary events and allows them to be easily transported and reused. They can also be useful for schools and retail environments where flexibility is important.

What are the advantages of modular exhibition stands?

Unlike traditional exhibition stands designed for one-off use, these modular exhibition stands are designed to be reused, reconfigured, and reprinted, making them a much more cost-effective and sustainable choice in the long run. The frames of these modular stands snap together with minimal tools needed, which makes them quicker to set up, and removes the expense of professional technicians. These stands are also made up of components that can be combined into multiple configurations and layouts, with an amazing range of accessories that can be integrated into the design. It means you can have a display that changes and expands as your company does.

What different types of exhibition stands are available?

We offer 3 main modular exhibition systems: Expolite Gantry, Vector, and Stretch Fabric stands. Expolite gantry truss stands have a frame that is made out of lightweight and strong composite beams. These folding beams quickly fit together without tools, and with a maximum unsupported span of up to 6m are great for creating larger stands. Custom-printed rollable PVC graphics are used to mount to the truss frame, with a quick and unique clip system. Our Vector system uses a lightweight aluminium frame that is covered with bespoke fabric graphics that simply push into the frame. Vector stands can be designed with curves, arches and more for a dynamic and engaging display. Stretch fabric modular stands have a tubular aluminium frame, over which custom-printed fabric graphics are stretched. This modular stand system is very quick to set up and is ideal for small to medium sized stands.

Which modular exhibition stand system is best for our event?

Our 3 different modular exhibition stand systems have various strengths and advantages. The Truss Gantry system is very cost effective and can be used to create large-scale stands and backdrops, with a frame that can span up to 6m. This folding gantry system is also very quick and easy to assemble and disassemble. Our Vector system can be used to create stands of any size and also allows eye-catching curved and arched designs. Vector stands take a little longer to install, but permit more intricate and immersive designs. Stretch fabric modular displays are great for smaller exhibition stands. They allow varied modern designs and are the fastest stand system to set up, making them ideal for time-pressured events.

What range of sizes are offered for these exhibition stands?

We can produce almost any size of exhibition stand, with the smallest standard designs measuring from 2 x 2m and large stands of 7 x 7m or more possible. The modular nature of these exhibition stand systems gives great flexibility to design a stand of any dimensions. It also means stands can grow with your business.

What materials are used in these modular exhibition stands?

The frames of our modular exhibition stands use lightweight and sturdy materials such as aluminium tubing and steel. The graphics for the stands are printed on various materials, including rigid boards, PVC banners, and stretch fabric.

How are the graphics attached to these exhibition stands?

Our truss exhibition stands use flexible PVC banners that are stretched between the frame, to create a large and perfectly taut printed surface. They have a unique clip system which makes them quick and easy to hang. Our Vector stands use SEG fabric graphics as standard, which are vibrant, durable and easy to fit. They simply push into the aluminium frame.. The graphics for our fabric stands are printed on special semi-elastic material that fits snugly over the top of the frame for a smooth image that covers the entire surface of the stand.
