Custom Event Backdrops
and Exhibition Walls

A custom event backdrop is a lightweight aluminium frame with a dye-sublimation printed fabric graphic stretched over it — no seams, no flash glare, machine washable at 30°C. Available in single and double-sided configurations from 1m to 6m wide, they suit trade show booths, press conference step-and-repeat logo walls, product launch backdrops, conference stage branding, and professional video call backgrounds. Replacement fabric graphics available without buying a new frame.

Our premium custom backdrops use dye-sublimation printing technology to fuse ink directly into the fabric fibres — producing vibrant, glare-free visuals that won't crack or peel, and can be machine washed between events to stay looking brand new. The lightweight aluminium frame sets up tool-free in under 10 minutes and packs into a single carry bag for one-person transport.

Pair your backdrop with our silver roller banner stands for additional messaging around the perimeter, or our white folding exhibition counter and black version to create a complete branded reception point in front of the wall.

Why Choose a Custom Event Backdrop

Seamless, Glare-Free Visuals

Tension fabric stretches a single piece of printed fabric over the frame, eliminating seams and the flash glare that affects vinyl and PVC alternatives. This makes fabric backdrops the professional standard for press photography, media walls, and product launch photography where reflections ruin the shot.

Step and Repeat Logo Walls

The red carpet look. A repeating logo pattern backdrop creates a professional photo opportunity that places your brand in every press shot and social media post taken at the event — a standard at product launches, awards ceremonies, and sponsored events.

Double-Sided for 360° Branding

Many of our tension fabric walls support double-sided printing — the same design on both sides, or two completely different graphics to target different audiences. Ideal for island exhibition stands where the backdrop is visible from multiple aisles simultaneously.

Reusable Frame — Replace Only the Graphic

The aluminium frame is a one-time investment built for years of repeated event use. When you rebrand or launch a new campaign, order a replacement fabric graphic skin rather than a whole new stand — saving cost and reducing waste with each new event cycle.

Machine Washable at 30°C

Dye-sublimation ink fuses directly into the fabric fibres rather than sitting on the surface — meaning the graphic does not crack, peel, or fade with use. If the backdrop gets dirty during an event, simply machine wash the fabric at 30°C and it is ready for the next show.

Video Call and Webinar Backdrops

Custom backdrops make excellent professional backgrounds for Zoom calls, Teams meetings, webinars, and YouTube studio setups — replacing cluttered home office environments with a branded or neutral professional backdrop that reinforces your organisation's identity on camera.

Which Backdrop Is Right For You?

Trade Show, Press Event or Video Studio?

For trade show exhibition stands, choose a single or double-sided tension fabric wall sized to your stand footprint — paired with roller banner stands and an exhibition counter for a complete setup. For press events and product launches, choose a step-and-repeat logo wall in the appropriate width for your photography backdrop. For video calls, webinars, and studio setups, choose a compact single-panel backdrop in a neutral branded design.

For Trade Show Stands

Size your backdrop to your stand footprint — a 3m wall suits a standard 3x3m shell scheme back wall, while a 4m or 6m wall anchors a larger space-only island. Pair with roller banner stands for additional messaging and a folding exhibition counter for a complete branded booth setup.

For Press Events and Product Launches

A step-and-repeat logo wall in 3m or 4m width provides the standard press photography backdrop for product launches, awards ceremonies, and sponsored events. The seamless, glare-free fabric surface ensures clean photography without flash reflections — essential for press shots shared across social and media channels.

For Video Calls, Webinars and Studio Setups

A compact 1.5m or 2m single-panel backdrop provides a professional branded background for Zoom, Teams, and webinar setups. Far more professional than a physical cluttered background and more reliable than virtual background tools that can blur speakers. Machine washable for easy maintenance.

How to Choose

What is the difference between a tension fabric backdrop and a vinyl banner?

Tension fabric backdrops use dye-sublimation ink fused into woven fabric stretched over a lightweight aluminium frame. This eliminates seams and prevents the flash glare that is common with vinyl and PVC banners — making fabric the professional standard for press photography and media events. Fabric graphics are also machine washable, do not crack or peel with use, and are significantly lighter and easier to transport than equivalent vinyl banners.

Can I print on both sides of the backdrop?

Yes. Most of our tension fabric backdrops support double-sided dye-sublimation printing. You can have the same design on both sides for consistent brand visibility, or two completely different graphics — useful for island exhibition stands where different audiences approach from different directions, or for events where the backdrop is visible from both the stage and the audience.

Are the fabric graphics machine washable?

Yes. Because dye-sublimation ink is fused into the fabric fibres rather than printed on the surface, the graphics are fully machine washable at 30°C. This means a backdrop that picks up food, drink, or dust during an event can be washed and ready for the next show — a significant advantage over vinyl alternatives that cannot be cleaned without risking the print.

How do I supply my artwork for the print?

After purchase, we send you a sized artwork template. You upload your file (PDF, AI, or high-resolution JPEG at 150dpi minimum for large format) and our team checks it for resolution, bleed, and colour before printing begins. If you are creating a step-and-repeat logo wall, we can advise on the correct logo repeat spacing and placement for clean photography results.

Ready to Buy

Can I buy just the replacement fabric graphic later?

Yes. The aluminium frame is a one-time investment — when you rebrand or launch a new campaign, order only the replacement fabric graphic skin for your existing frame. This is significantly more cost-effective than purchasing a complete new stand each time, and reduces material waste across multiple event cycles.

How heavy are the stands to transport?

The hollow tubular aluminium frames are surprisingly lightweight. A full 3m wide backdrop system typically weighs under 5kg including the fabric graphic, and packs into a single carry bag that one person can transport. This makes them practical for solo event setup and viable for public transport or air freight when vinyl alternatives would require a vehicle.

Do you offer design help for the artwork?

Yes. We provide artwork templates for your in-house designer or design agency. Our team can also guide you through the process — checking file resolution, advising on safe zones and bleed, and ensuring logo placement is correctly sized for visibility at full scale. Contact our team after purchase to begin the artwork process.
