Why Faux Stone is Great for Trade Show Displays

Say ‘Bye' to Boring Displays

If you’ve spent any amount of time at a recent trade show, you’ve probably seen a lot of the same few booth setups. Even though there are dozens of trade show display manufacturers out there, they all seem to provide the same, cookie-cutter display arrangement: a backlit vinyl marketing backdrop with maybe a small, center island for displaying brochures and product information. That’s it.

Trade show displays don’t have to be this boring!

Here’s why adding GenStone faux stone material to your trade show display can set you apart from the rest of the trade show booths:
