Well the very first thing you need to understand is how a sizes work on Exhibition Banner. Unlike everything else in every area of your life, which is measured using either metric or imperial measurements, pop-up stands have their own unique measurement device!
Pop-Up sticks are grouped and size by the number of sections or 'boxes', that make up the shell of the Pop-Up stand.
Most commonly pop-up stands are 3 'boxes' tall (which is the first measurement) and usually be met with standard in sizes of 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 'boxes' large. Additionally it is worth noting that Pop-Up stands can come as high as 5 'boxes' tall and can be linked creating an almost endless length (as well as shapes! ).
The second thing you need to determine is whether you want a curved or straight stand. The most popular choice is the curled unit(about 85% of sales) but that will not mean the straight version is not right for you. The easiest way to make a decision is to think about where your stand will be placed, if it is in a nook then your curved is best, if it is along a wall and you have limited space then the straight is most likely better suited.
Lastly, you will need to decide whether you want a fabric or imprinted graphic option. The difference between the two is not in the stand but the actual screens that are fitted to the face than it. The majority of people choose the imprinted graphic option as a result of more professional look, which may be attained by a sizable personalised graphic. The fabric alternative is better appropriate for applications where the user wants the ability to regularly change their own design (usually by using Velcro) for example in a foyer, school or library.
Be very careful when you compare what looks like a like for like product, usually they are not the same height or width! Many suppliers will pass off a tiny or midi stand as the full size product. So if for example, you are comparing 3x3 stands remember that the 'boxes' could be different sizes between different products and brands. If in doubt always request the size of the stand in millimetres.
Only a few short years back Pop-Up stands were quite notorious for being a nightmare to put together, but today as long as you really know what you are looking for you can get some incredibly good stands that will 'go up' without a blemish in less than 2 minutes!
There are a huge variety of Promotional Pop Up Stand on the market all of which vary in quality of manufacture. Yes that is right probably the best piece of information I can give you regarding Pop-Up Stands is that they are not all the same! A large number of suppliers will wash over this fact because they are trying to sell you their cheapest possible stand to be able to be more competitive or make a much better margin.
