One of the easiest ways to make an
impact at a trade show is by the use of banner stands. In
general, these display units provide a quick and easy
way to make an attractive trade
display booth without a great cost. There are several types of
banner stand, and these are telescoping banner stands, double
sided banner stands, portable banner stands, including
retractable banners and roll up banner stands. This article will
look at the various types of banner stand and what needs to be
considered when buying them for a trade show.
The main use of banner stands is
in producing a banner stand display. This is when a banner stand
or several stands are placed together, with each stand being
fitted with a banner carrying a graphic message concerning the
company occupying the trade booth. The stands are fitted with
vinyl banners supplied by a professional banner printing
company.
The telescopic banner stand is
a very popular choice for decorating a trade booth. Telescopic
banner stands are extremely lightweight and portable, and offer
a quick and easy set up. The central pole is fixed into the base
of the banner stand, and then two cross bars hold the banner
itself in place. The advantage of a telescopic banner stand is
that they are somewhat flexible, and can display banners of
various lengths.
In order to catch the attention
of trade show delegates who are passing by the booth, it is good
if the message can be seen from all angles, and for this the
double-sided banner stand is used. A double sided banner stand
needs to be more robust than a single version, and so will need
a much more sturdy base. The two banners are supported on a
central pole which is retractable, and the whole stand should
fold away for ease of carrying.
Portable banner stands can
encompass the two types mentioned above, the telescopic variety
or the double sided version. But generally you will be dealing
with a retractable banner stand or a roll up stand. These stands
house the graphic banner in a tube, and in order to display the
graphic, a pole is placed on the tube which also acts as the
base, and the graphic unfurled to make the banner display. A
portable banner stand will generally be provided with a bag to
make carrying easy.
As can be seen there are
several types of banner stand, and all of them are available in
different sizes. With the availability of both portable banner
stands and fixed types, and the various portable models such as
telescopic stands and double-sided banner stands, there is sure
to be a banner stand to meet your trade show booth display needs.
