Exhibition Displays

Chalkboard sales here at AYL have doubled in the past two years. This coincides with the national trend in the amount of chalkboard signs that we now see in shopping centres, pubs, restaurants and the British high street.

Many new Chalkboards have been introduced in the past two years, to suit all sorts of needs. Below is some advice on our chalkboard range.

We will start with what and where our chalkboards are manufactured. At AYL we pride ourselves on the high quality of all our products. Our chalkboards are no exception. The whole range of chalkboards that we sell are UK manufactured. Chalk surfaces are exterior grade. All wood frames where relevant are real American Redwood, which is sourced only from sustainable sources. Any brackets are precision engineered from mild steel, then zinc plated so they do not rust.

All our chalkboards are suitable for both liquid chalk pens and chalk sticks.

One of our most popular Chalkboards is our reversible A frame chalkboard. These chalkboards come in two different sizes stocked in two wood stain colours – oak and antique. The cleverest part of these A boards are the fact that each frame has two boards and each of these boards can slide out of the grove styled frame and be turned over. This becomes ideal for the pub food trade and any others who may have a lunchtime and evening menu. So it would be as simple, as after the lunchtime menu has finished for the day to slide out the chalk board section and turn over to where you would have already chalked your evening menu.

One of the biggest surprises from this year is that the traditional black board easel has made a comeback. Easels back in my day were only used in the school classroom.  Recently, they have been selling for uses such as in hotel receptions and conference venues.

We are shortly to release a new chalkboard A frame board, which has a PVC cover to both chalk areas to either use as a chalk area or as a poster holder. This will be perfect for the customer that wants a poster pavement sign that has a real wood frame finish.

A banner stand can be the ideal presentation tool for business offices or exhibition displays. With a good choice of graphics, they can make an instant, striking first impression on visitors. Banner stands are widely used at conferences, trade shows and exhibitions, and in company entrance foyers and reception areas. In shops, they can be used as part of a window display or at the point of sale (POS).

Plus Points
The main advantage of banner stands are that they are lightweight and highly portable. Adjustable systems can adapt to the size of display required and can come in the form of a roller. These save space when not in use, making them practical for multi-use.

A banner stand can be more suitable than a pop-up display board, as it will generally be light and easy to carry by hand. Velcro can be used to attach graphics easily. Trade show displays can be put up in less than 5 minutes and this can make them ideal for travelling sales professionals who need a display system that is flexible, simple and quick to use.

Ideal environments for banner stands could be a hotel, business entrance, conference or museum exhibit, school, college or universities, and a hospital or clinic.
