Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you produce a trade show display for an upcoming expo?
Standard production is typically 5 to 7 business days following art approval. Rush options are available for urgent events at DeVos Place or regional venues.
Can I replace just the fabric graphic later without buying new hardware?
Yes! All of our tension fabric systems and retractable banner stands allow replacement graphic skins so you can refresh messaging each year while reusing your original frame.
Are the fabrics fire-retardant for convention centers?
Yes. Our event fabrics carry NFPA 701 fire certification documentation required by convention center fire marshals.
