Truss displays are gaining popularity in the competitive tradeshow industry as exhibitors realize that the modular steel structures can be a smart investment. Tradeshow truss systems can be designed to act as your main booth or can be used as an accent to your existing booth. With flexible components, display trusses allow for a seemingly endless variety of configurations.
Truss display pieces are constructed of high-strength, lightweight steel that’s designed to weather the wear and tear associated with heavy tradeshow use. Many exhibitors opt for truss displays because they can be used to hang oversized product photos, plasma screens and lighting that attract attendees.
