Folding displays - backlit versus illuminated

Folding displays - backlit versus illuminated

At one-day and smaller events, it is often the case that exhibitors prefer to set up their exhibition stand themselves. However, very few exhibitors want to assemble every single frame and every single screw themselves. Therefore, the exhibition stand should be easy to set up without any experience in assembly. Many exhibitors therefore opt for mobile folding displays that are designed for self-assembly. No manual skills are required, so anyone can set them up. But which mobile exhibition wall is the right one for your trade fair presentation?

 

The illuminated mobile exhibition folding wall Invent Kinetic

Composition of the folding screen set

The Invent Kinetic folding wall consists of a folding frame, rails, PVC graphic panels, a transport case and, if required, long-arm spotlights. To be able to use the stand, you only need to purchase the graphic track set once. The frame, the rails and the transport case are available for hire. We can currently rent you the long-arm spotlights for €10.00 net per spotlight. They are delivered in a transport case.

 

Structure of the folding display

First, the folding frame is mounted and set up. The magnetic rails are then attached to the side so that the graphic panels can be hung on the magnetic rails. Depending on the size of the frame, different numbers of graphic strips are required, whereby two end caps are always needed for a nice finish.

Tip: It is a good idea to take a small stool with you so that you can stand on it to attach the rails and graphic strips.

Variants and sizes of the illuminated folding screen

With Invent Kinetic systems, you have the option of choosing between C and S systems. The difference is that the C systems are curved and the S systems are straight. Depending on the size of the floor space, you can choose between different folding wall sizes.

Advantages and disadvantages of an illuminated trade fair folding display

                                Variants

                              Contra 

Much cheaper than a classic mobile exhibition stand 

 

If not handled properly, the graphic strips will look unattractive after a certain time, they will curl and may no longer adhere so well to the frame  

Designed for self-assembly 

There are folding walls that are more modern  

Cheaper to rent than Invent Revolution Backlit 

You can see the demarcation of the individual graphic tracks 

You only pay the rent for LED spotlights, the new production of the graphic strips, which have to be produced once, and for the rest of the material.

New graphics production costs more than the Invent Revolution Backlit Wall

Two variants possible: curved and straight

 

 


Backlit folding display Invent Revolution Backlit

The Invent Revolution Backlit folding screen is a modern system that can be backlit or illuminated. 

Composition of the folding screen set

This folding screen consists of a folding frame, a textile graphic + two end caps, rails, base plates and LED curtains. It is delivered in a transport bag, which is packed in a cardboard box. As with the Invent Kinetic folding wall, you only pay the rental fee for the LED curtains, currently €35.00 per LED curtain set. In comparison to the Invent Kinetic wall, LED curtains can be used for backlighting instead of the long-arm spotlights for the Backlit folding wall. If you do not require backlighting, long-arm spotlights can also be fitted. In addition, this type of folding screen uses textile graphics instead of graphic panels, which must be covered.  There is one large front graphic and two end caps. You therefore have a continuous front graphic, which looks more attractive and, compared to the Invent Kinetic wall, no unsightly bulges can occur.  

 

Setting up the luminous folding display at the event

As with the Invent Kinetic wall, the frame is first stretched and set up. The base plates can then be slid into the frame. Next, the rails are attached to the frame and then the LED curtains can be hung on the frame. Finally, the graphic must be covered on the frame.

Tip: It is best to lay the frame on the floor and stretch the graphic on the floor. As soon as the graphic has been stretched, the frame can be put back down.

Variants and sizes of the backlit folding screen

We can also offer several dimensions for the backlit wall, but we only offer this system as a straight version. The wall is available in the following sizes:

Conclusion on choosing the right folding display for your brand presentation

The Invent Revolution backlit wall is modern and a real eye-catcher, but we can only offer you the straight version of this system. The backlit wall can be covered with a textile front graphic, which looks more attractive.  

If you are looking for a modern folding screen that can be backlit, then the backlit Invent Revolution Backlit system is the right choice. 

However, if you really want a curved system, the illuminated Invent Kinetic system would be the right choice.
