The bamboo range is becoming ever more popular, as mentioned before in previous blogs it is extremely eye catching and eco friendly. So it was only time before someone introduced a literature holder into the range to compliment the existing banner stands. So I have decided to review the Logik Literature Stand for you.

It is obviously made of bamboo and is floor standing but for its size is extremely lightweight – coming in at 4.7kg. It like most of its metal alternatives fully collapses making it easy to store and transport.  The Logik Literature Holder comes with its own carry bag which keeps it protected and again easy to move around.

The stand has 4 pockets that are designed to hold A4 literature and stands at 227mm high. It has a nifty little cut away at the top which is useful when you want to move it when full of leaflets.

I have had a few orders for the stand and most have been bought to compliment the Bamboo Banner Stands available on our site but I am finding because of the uniqueness more people are ordering them to use them in reception areas and board rooms. When I was testing the stand out I had it up at home and a friend popped in and she said it would look good as a magazine rack, not sure about that, but I think she meant being wood it looks nicer and more “homely” if that makes sense?

I for one will be using my Logik Bamboo Literature Holder over and above the metals ones, it looks good, lightweight but most importantly eco friendly! For more information on the stand please click the link Logik Bamboo Literature Holder

ps. The Show Store is running an offer on the stand for two weeks so get in now and get it cheap!

For years in order to create a “L” Shaped Curved wall for a clients show or event I have had to mess around with two different pop up stands and join them with ghost panels. At last somebody has designed and made a ready curved pop up stand  – the L Shaped Pop Up Stand. HOOOOOOOORRRRRRRAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!

The L Shaped Pop Up Stand is just as easy to use as a normal pop up and is transported just the same but the advantage of this new type of stand is that it is just one unit therefore cheaper!!

I can honestly say I will over period of a trading year source and supply over 30 clients who request such a stand for their exhibition or event. The L shape allows them to create a two walled display and is nice and curved so creating a smooth finish. Also the L is a great room divider. I have used them before to create interview bays for an event with graphics the whole way around the unit. As mentioned before in order for me to create the shape previously it would need two pop up stands plus extra ghost panels to join the two together and this could, dependant on size and make be a costly exercise.The price of the L shaped Pop Up Stand is about the same as a normal pop up stand!

The Show Store supplies the L shaped Pop Up Stand and it comes complete with full colour graphics. Just like the Supremacy Pop Up the transit case and lights have to be purchased separately – so be aware! The Stand comes in 3 sizes – 3×3, 3×4 or 3×5 and don’t forget they can be linked together just like any other pop up stand to create some weird and wonderful shapes.

Looking for something different but as affordable as a normal banner stand? So was I and came across the Logik. It is a stand made of Bamboo and in my opinion looks really cool!!

It works just the same as the normal aluminium stands but looks amazing and trust me gets people talking. The stand is extremely lightweight and easy to use, the only downside if you could call it one is the pole comes in 3 parts. This as far as I can see is not a problem and doesn’t take any longer to put together and everything comes in a padded bag anyway.

I have used this stand twice for a client and they used it to complement an exhibition stand they already had, positioned next to foliage and a fab graphic it looked stunning. They informed me that they had more people coming to the stand to look at the banner than they have ever had and this led nicely lots of leads!!

The Logik Banner Stand is available from the Show Store at an extremely competitive price. Click here for more detail.

Not a lot of people, believe it or not, think about replacing the graphics on their existing stands. I have had numerous enquiries for new hardware when a simple replacement graphic would suffice. Also I have found having a second lot of graphics is a great (cheap) way to test a marketing idea, especially if you have a pop up stand.

I have in the past had a client (who will remain nameless) take 3 sets of graphics with him to a show and each day had a swap around to test which concept worked the best with potential clients. As he pointed out it worked out much cheaper buying the extra sets of pop up stand graphics than paying to attend 2 more exhibitions to test his theory – good point well made!!

Most people though have a change of logo, or the images are looking tired and out dated or they want to promote a different product………these guys can just replace the graphic easily and save money!

When looking around for people to replace the graphic make sure they are able to do so.  Sounds daft but some companies will only produce a graphic for the systems they have in stock. Also if you are looking to replace a graphic on a banner stand my advice is to send the whole unit back and get them to do it for you. Most banner stands work on a tension basis and if you don’t do it properly then you can get into all sorts of bother.

The Showstore, although always offered the service, have put a new catergory on their on-line store for replacement graphics.  They will produce graphics for any type of stand (pop up stand, pop up banner stand, roll up banner stand etc), whether they stock it or not. You must be aware though if it is a stand they don’t normally stock there may be a small extra charge if they need to source special materials in order to complete the job (this will be in a minority of cases!!).
