New Floor Standing Fabric Graphic Display

We are excited about a versatile new product called the Delta Fabric Display.  This system features a full-color dye sub graphic that features silicone sewn onto its edges.  The silicone allows you to attach (mount) the graphic to an extruded aluminum frame.  The fabric is held tightly in place so the image has no wrinkles and looks beautiful.  This unit can be used as a portable backdrop at a trade show or even as a freestanding display in retail or event environments.  The unique aluminum frame system, which is easy to assemble and take apart, makes the entire display lightweight and easy to ship.

Great Display for Churches

Waveline Display for Churches - Walking Forward Ministry - Children of Kenya and NicaraguaLast week, we introduced one of our newest products, the Waveline Display.  The hardware and graphic is produced by one of our manufacturing partners overseas.  The graphic is also produced overseas and sent to us via air delivery.  This allows us to offer this product for only $895 and even less for quantity orders. 

The low price point of this graphic allows our trade show exhibiting customers the ability to order 2 or 3 different graphic skins for a single frame, which gives them the ability to use specially targeted graphics for a particular event.  We also believe the $895 price makes this an ideal informational backdrop for churches.  The Waveline Display is 10' wide and nearly 90 inches tall.  A full color tension fabric graphic of this size creates a backdrop that commands attention.   A church can create different skins for different events that they hold throughout the year.  Replacement skins are $695 or less depending on how many are ordered at one time.  

The Waveline is also easy to store and assemble.  Everything packs into a small carry bag that could be stored virtually anywhere.  Our team at Displayit has worked on a number of graphic projects for various churches and non-profits, so feel free to visit us at displayit.com to see if the Waveline would be of benefit to your organization.

Waveline Display is Here

Wow, $895.00! The 10' wide Waveline Display is here and ready for purchase.  To be honest, I feel like I've lost my mind when I see we've listed this display for $895.00, but it is exciting for our customers. Like our discount print OneFabric displays, these graphics are actually produced overseas, which allows us to offer them at a much lower price point, however the quality of the print is still very good.  We are somewhat limited in our ability to offer very specific color matching, but clients can submit a PMS color and we will match as close as we can.  We do require 10 business days to produce the graphic for the Waveline, but if you have the time, this could be the ideal product. While it doesn't meet every need, the Waveline is going to help table top exhibitors move to a full height exhibit and also allow Exhibitors to stretch their trade show budget further.

Don't Forget about Straight Pop-up Displays

The pop-up display is the workhorse of the trade show display industry.  If you've been to a trade show, you've seen the familiar curved displays with large format graphics.  However, what is less common on the show floor is the straight or flat-frame pop-up.  That is a shame because these flat displays can be very cost-effective and attractive. 

I recently completed an order for two 10' Straight Frame Pop-up Displays with 3 graphic mural panels and fabric endcaps like the one shown below and they looked terrific.  The nice thing about the straight pop-up display is since it is less common on the show floor it really stands out, and since you only need 3 front panels and 2 endcaps, it costs less to produce a full front mural with fabric endcaps like the one below.  The traditional curved pop-up display has 4 panels on the front.  Just another product to keep in mind as you plan for your next event.

New! Super affordable graphic OneFabric displays

I am very excited to let our displayitblog readers know about our new pop-up display system that is very affordable.  We are now stocking OneFabric Pop-up Displays here at our Suwanee, GA (just outside Atlanta) facility which allows us to offer a 10' Pop-up Display with full graphic for under $1000.00!

I have been in the exhibit industry for over a decade and never thought I would see the day that you could buy a 10' exhibit with a full color graphic for under $1000.00.  The OneFabric displays have multiple graphic print options.  The super low prices are our standard OneFabric frame with our special discounted fabric graphic prints.  These discounted prints require 12 business days for turnaround and we cannot promise exact PMS color matches, but we can come very close.  The prints are produced via 8-color process and are very attractive.  For those that require a quicker turnaround time, our premium prints can be produced in 5-7 business days and we can provide PMS color matches and hard copy proofs.  A 10' OneFabric with a premium print is $1,645.00 which is an industry leading price for a display and print of this quality and quick turnaround

We are currently carrying the OneFabric in 60" x 60" table top size, 88" x 88" and 117" x 88", look for more sizes and configurations in the weeks to come.

Exhibitor Planning Guide April 13th: Pictures from Exhibitor

Well, it is time to close the book on Exhibitor2009.  We have finished our post follow-ups with all of our our leads and it is time to look forward to TS2 in Chicago this July.  One nice touch that we did for this event is we created beautiful 5" x 7" thank you cards with an image of our trade show booth on it with hand written notes to each person that visited our booth.  Our designer Scott Simmons did a great job creating those.  In my last blog post, I mentioned I would share some pictures from the show. I didn't take as many as I thought, but hopefully these will give you an idea of what it was like at Exhibitor. For those of you that would like to read all of our Exhibitor Planning Series posts, which walk you through the entire process of getting ready for the Exhibitor Show, just click this link.

Exhibitor Planning Guide Mar 25th: Time to head home

I'm blogging from Mcarran Intnernational Airport in Las Vegas.  Exhibitor2009 has ended and I'm ready to head back to Atlanta.  We had a pretty good show.  The booth looked great, I've got some pictures that I will post once I get back home but I was very happy with our design and theme.  We got a number of compliments about our videos and the website overall.  We awarded a $500 gift card to the person that came the closest to guessing how many products we had on displayit.com for online purchase, the correct answer was 1061 and the winning entry was 1056, Wow!  I thought the promotion worked well, we had a number of people tell us they spent some extra time on the site getting to know it better so they could make an educated guess.

Overall, extrusion and fabric displays ruled the show floor, there are a number of new systems for supporting fabric, and I'm going to provide additional blog reports in the coming days, plus pictures.  We hope to have a number of these new innovative products on displayit.com very soon.  There is no doubt that the display industry is going through some rapid change at the moment and it will be exciting to see where the future takes us.  My brain is pretty worn down after three long days in Vegas, so I'll have to cut my report short.  Look for more detailed reports from the show here at displayitblog.com in the days to come.
