To use a table cover or not to use a table cover... that is the question



Table covers are popular in trade shows, product demonstration booths, product launches and registration booths.   Any time you have your people sitting at a table, you probably want to cover that table in a way that continues to further your message. A lot of customers buy table covers as part of a larger package, but table covers can also be bought by themselves. In fact, for those customers on a very tight budget, we recommend that you first buy a branded table cover before you buy a tent -- take a look at this customer in Oregon who used table covers along with a simple pipe and drape display for an indoor event: 




But they also bought a 10x20 tent that they used at an outdoor event... you can't expect an off road company to be stuck inside:




Table covers also have different names -- some people refer to them as table drapes, table throws or table skirts. Usually, though, a table throw or table skirt does not have a zipper or slit at the back. That is a personal preference.  At Splash Tents, Inc., we don't charge extra for a slit or a zipper in our table covers, so you can feel free to choose the option that suits your needs best without worrying about being nickel-and-dimed with extra charges. (But a quick tip -- if you plan on temporarily storing products or other items under your table, you will want a slit or zipper on the table cover to provide easy access.)

We also have multiple types of table covers to choose from -- Rectangular Table Throws (2', 4', 6', 8'), Round Table Throws (2', 4'), Fitted Table Covers (2', 4', 6', 8'), Round Fitted Table Covers (2', 4'), Ultra Fitted Table Covers (6', 8') & Accent Table Throws (30", 60"). As you might have guessed, the most popular table cover is the 6 foot or the 8' rectangle table cover.

NBA sponsors use tradeshow displays to get noticed


With the NBA playoff in full swing, we wanted to take a quick look back at how sponsors of NBA teams have used our products to create a high impact event. After spending a lot of money on expensive sponsorships, our clients want to make sure that their displays pop.  And that is why people turn to us.   Take a look at the tradeshow display of Kumho Tires, the official tire of the Los Angeles Lakers, outside of the Staples Center in L.A.


Or here is a closer view during the day:


And here is a better look at the backwall for the event (with one of the youngest fans of the LA Laker's youngest fans along with his 3 new friends):
