Banner stands are probably the simplest but the most versatile display in the trade show industry. They’re not only for trade shows, but they are also for one-time events, trade fairs, office buildings and anywhere you need get a message across using graphics.

There are a lot of styles of banner stands; retractable banner stands, rigid pole banner stands, hanging banners, and scrolling banner stands. With all these styles and thousands of manufacturers, how does a person start to make a sound decision on the right trade show banner?

You can try finding somebody that has first-hand knowledge but they probably had the same difficulty you did picking out a banner stand that was right for them. The other way is to reach out socially and see if you can find consensus among different users. Or you can do what you’re doing right now and go out and find articles and read about the different banner stands that are out there.

Another way to decide on a banner stand is go on the web and call suppliers to see what their opinions are. Virtually 99% of all banner stands hardware is made overseas. Ask if the banner stand hardware carries a lifetime warranty and is sold by an American manufacturer that does the assembly of the banner stand in America. I cannot emphasize how much garbage hardware is out in the industry now. Unless you want a cheap product, you need to weed through all them to ensure your company has a quality product.

We here at Smash Hit Displays only carry banner stands from one manufacturer. We have found a supplier will that has delivered a winning product for a great price. We just don’t get these banner stands back for repair will which makes a big difference in our bottom line because it costs to return items to have them repaired and send back to the customer and hurts our reputation. We want you to be thrilled with our products which is why we only carry high quality banner stands.

The other thing I really like about the displays we carry is that it has a non-curl graphic. This means when the graphic is pulled out and allowed to sit for a while the ends will not curl in or out, leaving a nice flat looking graphic which looks professional year after year.

I hope this has helped you did pick out a display that will last you for years and years. If you have any questions please call us at Smash Hit Displays. We answer our phones and will be glad to help you. 877–215–5355.
