A Fabric Pop Up Display For Your Next Show

A tension fabric pop up display is a very popular option with exhibitors because they’re versatile, portable, and attractive. Plus, they’re economical to purchase, assemble quickly, and can be stored anywhere. A tension fabric pop up display is ideal for smaller shows or as a backdrop for a lobby or meeting.

Pop Up Fabric Display and Tension Fabric Display Options

For over 40 years, the tension fabric display has been a mainstay for 10 ft. exhibitors. The portable frames are easy to set-up, ultra lightweight, portable and even easier to take down. Newer configurations offer additional designs like stretch fabric graphics, backlighting, and semi-attached graphics. It’s never been easier!

Choose from the X1 with individual fabric graphics and a lightweight drawstring bag or the NEXT! with large wraparound graphics that expand with the frame. There are even curved options (VBURST), tabletops (SalesMate), and pop ups with brandable cases (Xpressions). Select from over 70 designs, all affordable and versatile.

Pop Up Fabric Display FAQs

After a few shows, my X1 graphics are dirty from handling on the show floor. What are my options?

Rest easy. X1 Fabric Graphics are dye-sublimated and can be cleaned! Spot clean any specific areas or throw them into a front-loading washing machine in the gentle cycle (on cold with mild detergent). The graphics will look new again.

Dry on very low heat or hang to dry on the frame (preferred method).

Can I order a customized tension fabric display?

The variety of shapes, sizes, and materials means every Fabric Pop-up Display is unique. With a fabric pop-up, it’s all about the graphics. That’s where smart exhibitors can shine with colorful graphics and a captivating message.

If you need a more customizable portable display, including options like shelves, monitor mounts, and backlighting, consider the Symphony Portable System.

What are the most popular pop-up fabric display options?

What used to be an easy question about Pop Up Displays is now not as easy. Many exhibitors love the convenience of a single large graphic whereas others prefer multiple smaller graphics which can be rearranged, removed, or replaced depending on the show. Recently, there’s been a surge in backlit pop-up fabric displays. They’re more expensive but offer a visual “color pop” that’s hard to miss.

Pop-up displays are perfect for local or regional events, sales presentations, or even lobby displays. For larger trade shows, consider a portable like the Symphony Portable Display. It offers more features and design choices but still ships in a portable roto-molded case(s) and assembles without tools.

How do I avoid/eliminate wrinkles in a tension fabric pop-ups?

Fabric will wrinkle and fold lines may appear in a fabric graphic if it has been stored or folded for a long time. Fortunately, the wrinkles are not permanent. Whenever possible, always store your displays set-up. Many people place their display in the company lobby or conference room. It can be a great silent salesperson or department directory.

High-quality fabrics on structures like Vburst and NEXT! generally won’t hold wrinkles once the frame is fully assembled. If wrinkles persist, use a small travel steamer. Many labor crews at trade shows have these available if you don’t want to carry one in your case. Steamers are inexpensive and simple to use and will remove any remaining wrinkles.

What is a fabric pop-up display?

A Fabric Pop-up Display consists of a portable frame (usually made from aluminum or plastic tubing) and fabric graphics. It’s engineered to collapse for packaging and shipping, making it lightweight and easy to set-up. The graphics are hung on the frame after it’s expanded, or in some cases, remain on the frame (both open and closed).

Fabric pop-up displays are available in three sizes: 10 ft., 8 ft., and table tops. The design configurations can vary with squares, rectangles, triangles, and curves as the most common shapes. Many include LED stem lights, which are available for an additional cost.

Are self-locking pop-ups a good option for tension fabric pop-ups? I have seen them on other websites.

Self-locking Pop-up Displays are perfect for Velcro-compatible fabrics and graphic murals but are not ideal for tension fabric graphics. Our frame uses manual locks because it creates a more rigid structure, one that evenly stretches the fabric and removes any wrinkles or folds. The result is a taut flat graphic that mimics a hard panel graphic.

Self-locking frames are fantastic when you have a rollable mural graphic or fabric panel with stiffener hardware. But, when it comes to fabric pop-ups, self-locking pop-up designs are typically not a good option.
