These are not the only advantages of tabletop displays. An even bigger advantage is their portability. The panels that go to make a tabletop display are connected by hinges, and can fold easily. This makes it possible to close tabletop displays like accordions, and store them in flat portfolio-like cases or nylon bags with shoulder straps. Several tabletop displays come with their own customized cases, making transportation easy.

There are two types of tabletop displays. The first is the pop up tabletop display. It has large panels that can accommodate large graphics and is used in trade shows. The second is the folding tabletop display board. It is much smaller, and more suitable for use in smaller places.

Another advantage of tabletop displays is their versatility. Exhibitors can add or remove display units like literature pockets, sign holders, backlit headers or presentation panels. The Velcro covering on the side of tabletop displays makes it possible to exhibit signs, images or messages. Customers can select the fabric color to suit their company needs.

Almost every tabletop display comes with its own lighting arrangement. Several have angled panels to display the graphics. These pres-assembled panels unfold easily, and can be set up fast. Most of them are made of aluminum, and are self-locking. This makes it easy to fold or unfold them.

Tabletop displays help tradeshow visitors to view an image from several positions. This is especially useful in closed spaces where people are moving constantly, and need to look at exhibits from different angles.

All these advantages make tabletop displays a very important part of tradeshow plans. The fact that they can be obtained on rent adds to their popularity, and widespread use. The rental agencies too find tabletop displays easier to handle, because they can be packed in bags and cases and carried to tradeshow booths.
