This premium retractable banner stand has all the latest features for trade show banner displays, such as telescopic operation that lets you set the height to any dimension from 30" up to the full 84" height. It also has adjustable tension so even stiff materials can be used, and if the tension decreases over time, as is common, it can be adjusted easily without the need to send it back to the manufacturer.

With a graphic size of 31.5" x 30-84", the Barracuda is the perfect choice for exhibitors who want the latest technology in a quality stand that will hold up to heavy use.

Setup Instructions
Graphic Template
We offer several options with each stand so you can choose the qualities and price that suit your needs. All our options offer excellent print quality, are waterproof, tear resistant and fade resistant, so any choice you make will be a quality product.
Economy Banner: 13oz Blockout Banner
This is our least expensive option. It has a fine textured low gloss finish to reduce glare, and is completely opaque so you won't get any light from behind casting shadows on your graphic. It prints very well and hangs flat, except the edges of this material will curl inward somewhat if printed with heavy ink coverage.
Standard Banner: Curl Free Fire Retardant Banner
This is our most popular choice. It has the beautiful upscale look of fabric, excellent color reproduction, a low glare finish and is also fire retardant to satisfy any strict fire codes. It's engineered to hang flat without any edge curl, even with heavy ink coverage, but it's not completely opaque so strong light from behind can cast shadows.
Standard Banner: Opaque Polyester film
This is an eco-friendly 7 mil film with an antistatic gray backing and a textured satin finish. This polyester film has excellent hang flat properties, and it's waterproof, scratch resistant, tear resistant and provides good color while diffusing glare. It has the look of our Premium Trade Show Banner without extra cost, and the gray blockout backing keeps any light from behind from casting shadows on your image.
Premium Banner: Trade Show Banner
This is the finest material available. It's printed at fine art quality on a gloss opaque polyester film with a polycarbonate textured laminate for the ultimate in durability and is also opaque. It hangs very flat but does develop a memory when retracted which causes the banner to curl when it's first setup each time. The material will relax after several hours, but that can be an issue in some circumstances where the banner must be setup for immediate viewing.
Eco Friendly Banner: EverGreen Fire Retardant Cloth
This is a water proof fire retardant 100% polyester woven fabric. EverGreen fabrics are unique in that they are designed to be environmentally friendly throughout their life cycle. This polyester fabric is strong, lightweight and scratch resistant. The low gloss finish is excellent for sales events, exhibitions and museum events, where lighting conditions can create problems with glare. This material will hang flat, but it's not completely opaque so light from behind may cast visible shadows on the graphic.
