If the display hardware is still in good condition, you can often replace only the printed graphic rather than buying a complete new display.
This works particularly well for reusable systems such as pop-up exhibition stands, fabric lightboxes, café barriers, promotional flags and printed gazebos.
The critical step is compatibility: identify the exact frame type, size, orientation and number of graphic panels before ordering.
Replacement graphics for pop-up displays
Pop-up frames use several vertical graphic panels. On common 3-high EventPro-style systems:
3x2: 4-panel set
3x3: 5-panel set
3x4: 6-panel set
3x5: 7-panel set
Curved and straight frames use different panel layouts, so do not order solely from the overall stand size.
Replacement graphics for fabric lightboxes
Fabric lightboxes require graphics made for the exact frame dimensions. Display Wizard's current LED Fabric Lightbox replacement range includes 2000 x 1000mm, 2000 x 2000mm and 2000 x 3000mm, with single- and double-sided graphic options.
When is replacing the graphic worthwhile?
Replace the graphics when:
the hardware is structurally sound
your branding or campaign has changed
a print is damaged but the frame is reusable
you need a new message for a different event
you want to reduce cost and waste compared with replacing the complete system
If you are uncertain about compatibility, identify the product model, frame size, fittings and existing graphic dimensions before ordering.
Replacement Graphics Compatibility Checklist
| Display type | Check before ordering |
|---|---|
| Pop-up display | Brand/frame type, curved vs straight, frame size, panel count, hanger fitting |
| Fabric lightbox | Exact frame width/height and whether one or two printed faces are needed |
| Café barrier | Graphic width, compatible rail/post system, PVC vs mesh, single vs double sided |
| Gazebo | Frame dimensions, roof size, wall length and print orientation |
| Promotional flag | Pole system, flag size/shape and compatible sleeve/fittings |
Replacement Graphics FAQs
Can I replace the graphics on a pop-up stand?
Yes. Compatible pop-up stands can be refreshed with replacement magnetic graphic panels without replacing the frame.
How many panels does a 3x3 pop-up stand use?
A common 3-high 3x3 EventPro pop-up configuration uses five graphic panels: three main panels plus two D-end panels.
Can I replace only one damaged pop-up panel?
Single panels are available for some compatible systems, but colour consistency and artwork alignment should be considered when replacing one panel within an existing set.
Can lightbox fabric graphics be replaced?
Yes. Fabric lightboxes are specifically designed to accept replaceable tensioned graphics, provided the replacement matches the exact frame dimensions.
How do I know whether a replacement graphic will fit?
Identify the display brand or model, exact dimensions, straight or curved configuration, existing fittings and the number of printed faces before ordering.
