7. Graphics Are Interchangeable
One of the biggest benefits of SEG displays is that graphics can be swapped out easily. Businesses can reuse the same frame for years while updating visuals for:
- Seasonal promotions.
- New product launches.
- Different trade shows or event themes.
8. SEG’s Use Durable Aluminum Frames
The pop up and retractable design for the aluminum frames makes them very portable compared to traditional trade show displays. Some companies use metal, plastic and other heavy materials that weigh down your ability to travel lightly to your show. Aluminum frames are the best fit as they are very lightweight while maintaining their durability. To finish the aluminum they are topped with a clear coating that gives them a shine that will make them look brand new. Also, your silicone edge graphics will come with a silicone beads lining that can be pressed into your frame for a seamless look. This combination makes for a hassle less display that your company can use for the years to come.
9. They Can Only Be Used in Indoor Spaces
Backlit displays are for indoor use only. Usually good for exhibits and trade shows, as they are usually carpeted areas that will not do any damage to your backlit display. These can’t be used outdoors for various reasons such as rain, wind, dirt, and more. These elements will wear down your display and even destroy the white LED lighting installed inside. We know you want to keep your backlit displays as long as you can, so use them with care in indoor settings only.
10. You Can Use Them With or Without LED lights
The aluminum backlit frames can be used without the LED lights as needed. As a regular Pop Up Display with seamless SEG graphics, it will make your display even lighter in weight. Making for light boxes that can lower your hassle of carrying heavy packages to your event.
This is ideal for companies that have both extravagant and simple events that need versatility with their graphic displays.
