Bannières suspendues

On a busy show floor, attendees look over heads, pop-up walls and counters. A floor display only works once someone is already in your aisle. An overhead trade show banner sits above all of that, so people can spot your logo from several aisles away and walk straight to you.

A hanging sign also does jobs a floor-level display cannot:

• Wayfinding: visitors who booked a meeting can find you without checking the floor plan.
• All-round branding: circle, square, triangle and hexagon shapes show your graphic from every approach, not just the front aisle.
• More usable floor space: the banner uses air space, leaving room for counters, demos and conversations.
• A more established look: overhead trade show signage makes even a modest booth read as a serious exhibitor.

Every display in this collection is a custom printed fabric graphic on a lightweight frame, made by Backdropsource, which has produced custom fabric displays since 2004 and delivered more than 100,000 custom products.

Each hanging display arrives complete with a lightweight frame, a custom printed fabric graphic and a carry bag, so you receive a finished sign rather than just a print. Choose the size on each product page to suit your booth and the venue's height rules.

• Inline booths: the Vertical Hanging Disc, Curved, Sky Tube Flat Panel, Wave and L Shape banners face the main aisle without crowding the space.
• Corner booths: triangle, pinwheel and quad shapes show your graphic to two aisles at once.
• Island booths: circle, square, hexagon and tiered designs work from every side, and tiered styles become a landmark the whole hall can see.
• Dim halls and evening events: the Backlit Rectangle and Backlit Cubic banners light your graphic from inside.

The frame is reusable. When your branding, product or campaign changes, you can order a replacement graphic for the frame you already own instead of buying new hardware.

If you cannot picture a shape above your booth, ask for a free 2D design proof. It shows your artwork on the shape you choose, comes with unlimited revisions and carries no obligation. Nothing prints until you approve it.

Design tips for overhead signs

• Make your logo the largest element; it is read from a distance.
• Keep wording to a few words, such as your name or one offer.
• Make sure each face works on its own, since attendees see one side at a time.
• Use strong contrast between text and background.

Print quality and peace of mind
