Trade show display fabrics: Most of the major manufactures use the same fabrics and most of the same colors. They work! This also allows you to buy a booth from one manufacturer and a counter from another and have a coordinated image. The fabrics have improved over the years. They are more durable to increase the life of the displays. The improved colors match the trends.

BULK FABRIC: We do sell bulk Frontrunner and Prelude fabrics to companies like "Ripley's Believe It Or Not", who use it on walls or make their own panels. See glue requirements at the bottom of this page.


The Common Fabrics: Click on the name to view the colors.
b-arrow.gif (847 bytes)FRONTRUNNER: This is the most popular in the industry because it has been around the longest. It was the first "quality" fabric for use with velcro. It has a thin, carpet-like texture. Since most damage to displays is caused by improper packing by people who want to leave a long show quickly, the thicker fabrics show less imprints if the panels are not protected properly. The longer nape fabrics also show less of a seam between the panels. People prefer a smooth transition between panels. ASTM E84-91a "Tunnel Test": Complies with NFPA class A and UBC Class I, UBC 8-2 (42-2, 1991 UBC)(fully lined protocol): Meets "acceptance criteria".

PRELUDE: A very smooth fabric almost the texture of felt. It is made by the same manufacture as Frontrunner. Velcro sticks equally well to this material. Many of the colors match allowing nice texture differences. ASTM E84-91a "Tunnel Test": Complies with NFPA class A and UBC Class I, UBC 8-2 (42-2, 1991 UBC)(fully lined protocol): Meets "acceptance criteria".

PREMIER: This is a new, "high end" fabric made by the same manufacturer as Showtime. It has a slightly, smoother finish than Frontrunner so it has less of a "carpet" look, but the nape is just as thick. Its colors match the Frontrunner colors. Meets Class A flame spread rating in accordance with ASTM E-84 "Tunnel Test". Passes corner burn - NFPA 265, UBC 8-2 (formerly UBC 42-2)(fully lined protocol).
CAN/ULC-S102-M88

SHOWTIME: This fabric is slowly being phased out.

CLASSIQ: This is made by a smaller manufacturer so it is less money. I would be very hard pressed to lay this fabric next to Frontrunner and tell which is which but it is considered a lesser quality.

Display manufactures stock different fabrics as a standard. If  you choose a different fabric than what they stock, there is usually an up charge and probably a few days delay in the building of your display.


Bulk fabric: Rolls come in 63" widths. It is sold by the linear yard. Price depends upon the amount sold. There is a 7 linear yard minimum which is $25 per linear yard at that quantity. A full roll is 55 lin. yards and the cost is $17.42 per lin. yd at that volume.

Applying: The manufacturer recommends going to Home Depot (or the like) for the glue. They wouldn't recommend a brand name. Any good wall paper glue will work. I would suggest a glue for the heavier materials instead of paper. One thing is critical. The wall needs to be finished, or sized. Seal the wall with a good primer so that the glue won't be absorbed into the wall. A wall with semi gloss paint is fine. Raw drywall will use up most of the glue, dry it out, and cause the fabric not to stick. Put the glue on the wall and then apply the fabric. Use a roller to press it into the glue, not hard, just to get it even. Of course don't get the glue to thick so it goes through the fabric. I would recommend a test area just to see how much glue to use. Get professional advise from where you purchase the glue.
