Which Exhibition Stand Do I Need?

The right display depends on your available space, the distance from which it needs to be seen, how often it will be transported and whether the event is indoors or outdoors.

Roll-up banners

Best for: compact exhibition spaces, reception areas, supporting messages, promotions and businesses that need a quick portable display.

Roll-up banners use little floor space, assemble quickly and pack into a carry bag. Choose one when you need a focused message, logo, offer or directional display.

Tension-fabric backdrops

Best for: creating a professional branded wall behind staff, products, furniture or presentation areas.

Choose a straight backdrop for a clean full-width background or a curved style for a softer, more enclosed appearance. The range covers compact 8ft displays through to larger 20ft exhibition walls.

Velcro pop-up backdrops

Best for: businesses that want a wide exhibition backdrop with graphic panels attached to a pop-up frame.

These work well as a main stand background and are available in two nominal sizes. Confirm the finished footprint and venue space before ordering.

Event flags

Best for: attracting attention at entrances, outdoor events, forecourts and busy exhibition environments.

Select the flag shape, height, single- or double-sided printing and the appropriate base for the intended location. Ask us to confirm suitability if weather exposure or venue restrictions are important.

Trade-show gazebos

Best for: outdoor events, markets, promotional spaces and larger branded setups requiring overhead presence.

Choose the gazebo size and wall configuration for your space. Confirm anchoring, venue rules and anticipated conditions before ordering.

Brochure and digital display stands

Best for: presenting brochures, literature or digital content alongside a main exhibition display.

These stands are useful when visitors need information they can take away or when a screen forms part of your presentation.
