Kick your trade show presence into high gear with these new offerings
It’s All about Flexibility
To give trade show exhibitors flexibility to help control exhibiting costs, tension fabric solutions provider Moss Inc. has introduced a modular wall system designed for fabric graphics that gives exhibitors what they need — options. The EZ Fabric Wall System combines the versatility of modular walls with the benefits of lightweight fabric structures. With a variety of widths and heights, the walls can be configured to make the most of any display space and allow for dozens of available accessories such as monitors, shelve and graphics.

Mod Squad
Off-the-shelf solutions can look great on the balance sheet, but may not be as customized as you envision. In response to customers demanding custom displays with modular technology, display company Accenta has enhanced its custom program to give you just that. Show displays, exhibits, trade show booths, counters, display cases and point-of-purchase displays can all be custom-designed.

Combo Creations
You’re always asking your designer to come up with new and creative designs for your displays. And to do that, designers need a diverse palette of materials to work with — and now you can paint with a few more colors. Acrylics company Acrilex Inc. has come up with new material solutions by combining multiple sheets of acrylic. These sheets can be combined or fused together in an unlimited variety of color combinations to create dramatic color, background and edge effects, while maintaining all the desirable qualities of single-sheet acrylics.

Budget-Friendly Stage Sets
The stage set is often one of the most costly elements of any stage show. How to find solutions to the labor-intensive, technologically challenging stage set while maintaining a level of appearance and professionalism? Canavan Scenic & Light has one answer — the company recently unveiled the Jefferson X2 Rental Set. This semi-portable stage set can be conveniently shipped by common carrier, easily installed by your local labor, and configured into several set options, making it a highly cost-effective solution.

Read their Lips
With smart phones and laptops at their fingertips, today’s conference-goers are subjected to a barrage of distractions from the live experience, making it challenging for the average attendee to stay tuned in to a presentation. With Caption Ticker, however, professional captioners from Closed Captioning Services Inc. simultaneously transcribe your conference, videoconference or meeting so that your attendees can have an on-screen visual content feed. The remote captioning technology provides affordable real-time transcription for all types of conferences and events, and can also be used to transcribe or translate your conference into Spanish.
