Let’s face it, trade shows can be exhausting, and with everyone handing out materials to market their products and services, it’s easy for your materials to get lost in the shuffle. But now ShowCart has a solution that attendees will appreciate even as they promote your brand everywhere they go. Your name will be printed in up to four colors on a five-sided rolling suitcase-like billboard that attendees can use to haul all their expo spoils. Durable, handy and lightweight, it’s no wonder these carts are quickly gaining popularity at events everywhere.

In today’s world of digital music players and high-definition television, technology seems to rule. Yet sometimes a little atavism can capture an audience in a way that no technological trinket ever could. One such anachronism — flipbooks — is catching the eye of event marketers everywhere for just this reason. Produced by New York-based manufacturer Flippies, this 19th century novelty will have guests flipping through the pages to view the moving image of your making — et voila, interactive media for your event that they are likely to keep. Standard size is 4 inches wide by 2.5 inches tall. Additional sizes are available.

Why is it that only office chairs offer lumbar support? Is good posture no longer relevant after 5 p.m.? Girari Sustainable Event Furnishings doesn’t think so — it’s introducing the new Alta chair, which is designed to please the back as much as it pleases the eye. With recycled cast aluminum legs and a molded acrylic back, these chairs complement Girari’s line of glass and metal banquet tables and don’t sacrifice comfort for style. The seat cushions are interchangeable, and you have your choice of a variety of colors and fabrics. Girari soon plans to release a barstool version of the Alta chair, along with versions of both with cushions on the seat and back.
