Versatile New Versaflex Banner Stands
Our new Versaflex banner stand is one of the most versatile portable banner stands on the market. It comes in 4 widths, 31.5", 35.5", 39.4" and 47.25", and it has an adjustable height with a range from 43" up to an incredible 120" tall. That alone makes for a wide range of sizes that can be created, but that's just the beginning.
The graphic cross rails have 3 different channels where the graphics can be attached. This allows for the full cross rail to be visible, if the graphic is attached at the bottom, or only half of the rail to be visible if the graphic is attached in the middle, or completely hidden by attaching the graphic to the top channel. The middle position is the standard, but this flexibility is one of the things we love about this trade show banner stand.
The bottom cross rail can move up and down the support pole as well, so the entire banner can be positioned up off the floor if desired. In many situations, exhibition banner stands or banner walls are used at the back of the display area, and the lower portion of the banner is often obscured by tables and chairs, or some other display equipment. The Versaflex allows you to purchase a smaller, less expensive banner, and position it up off the ground so the top is still at the same height as it would be for a taller banner. For example, we've made 72" tall banners an option for the Versaflex, so it can be used with the bottom of the banner at the lowest position, which is about 4" off the floor, and the top of the banner at about 76". Or, the top of the banner could be raised to 96" to be seen over top of most other displays, and the bottom of the banner would be about 26" off the ground. For a display where that bottom 26" would have been hidden anyway, that's a great option, and if you really want your banner to be visible, you can raise it to the full 120" height, which is sure to get attention.
While these are all great features, and very few other displays have all of this capability in a single banner stand, the addition of the multi-connection hub and different attachment options for the graphic cross rails is what really makes the Versaflex unique. Each support pole has top and bottom circular hubs with connection slots every 45 degrees. This allows multiple stands to connect to each hub at multiple angles. There are end cap connectors for the graphic cross rails that allow the ends of the rails to connect to the hubs, or back side connectors that allow the support pole to sit behind the banner, like a traditional single sided banner stand. There are also joiners to connect multiple stands together into virtually seamless straight banner walls.
What this all means is that banner stands can be created with the support pole hidden in the back, or visible on each side, and banner walls can be created in different shapes and sizes. In the case of individual banner stands or straight banner walls, the configuration with the pole behind the banner is most common. This setup makes very stable banner stands for trade shows and other similar displays, but for even greater stability, such as busy retail environments, having support poles on each side of the banner doubles the number of poles and bases for even greater stability. This setup also enables the use of double sided banners, since there is no support pole blocking the view of the back side of the banner in this configuration. The single pole configuration can also be made double sided, but it would require a second banner with it's own set of cross rails.
The set up with support poles on either side of the banner also allows for additional configurations such as angled banner walls, square towers, or three sided boxes. As you can see, the Versaflex can be used to create exhibition banner stands in almost any shape and size. You can purchase a banner wall and break it into individual stands for use at smaller events, or purchase a single banner stand with the knowledge that you can add sections later to create a banner wall of whatever shape and size you need.
We're really excited about all the possibilities with the Versaflex, so be sure to check it out on our website to learn more, or contact us with questions and we'd be happy to help you figure out if the Versaflex is right for your needs.
