Trade Show Signage

Head-Turning Trade Show Signage That Pulls People to Your Booth

Banner Stands, Backdrops & Table Covers From Your Wake Forest Sign Shop

At a busy trade show, you have a few seconds to catch someone's eye as they walk past. Bold, well-designed signage tells visitors who you are and gives them a reason to stop and talk.



At Custom Signs Inc., we design and print trade show signage in-house at our Wake Forest shop, from banner stands and backdrops to branded table covers and table tents. Our family-owned team handles everything from design to final print, with no setup fees. We work with businesses of every size, including startups that need to make a big impression on a smaller budget. Pick up your order at our shop or have it shipped.

How to Choose the Right Trade Show Signage

Pieces That Work Together in Your Booth

Retractable Banner Stands

Banner stands roll up into their base for easy travel and set up in minutes. They're a great starting point for any booth.

Backdrop Walls & Pop-Up Banners

A backdrop gives your booth a finished, professional look and puts your logo where people can see it from across the hall.

Branded Table Covers

A custom table cover turns a plain folding table into part of your display and keeps boxes and supplies out of sight.

Table Tents

Table tents share quick details like specials, QR codes or product info right where visitors are standing.

Portable Sandwich Boards

Sandwich boards work well near entrances and walkways to point people toward your booth.

Events People Order Trade Show Signage For
