How to Create Different Modular Backlit Trade Show Booths

Traditional lightweight trade show booths are simple and unattractive. Attractive custom booths are not lightweight or portable, and many cannot be reused, which adds extra assembly costs. How can we make trade show booths that are lightweight, easy to assemble, and visually diverse, quickly capturing exhibitors' attention? This article explains how to solve this problem using the Lintel 120mm Modular Lightbox and its trade show functional solutions.

1. What is the Lintel 120mm Modular Lightbox?

The Lintel 120mm Modular Lightbox is a fabric lightbox display with globally patented, tool-free modular assembly design. Thanks to this patented system, the 120mm Modular Lightbox can reach up to 4 meters high and over 6 meters long (some clients have even made displays up to 12 meters). The size and shape are customizable. You can choose between aluminum or PVC lightbox frames. Paired with SEG fabric graphics, you can quickly change brand ads without tools, supporting single-sided or double-sided prints. The PVC frame and SEG fabric graphics are B1 fire-rated, heat-resistant, and durable. Lintel also offers various functional accessories, including AA columns, TV holders, shelves, hanging rods, pegboards, magnetic hooks, magnetic shelves, magnetic hanging rods, RGB frames, irregular-shaped angled fabric lightboxes, tube frame side display racks, and tube frames with TV holders and shelves.

2. Basic Backlit Trade Show Booth Design

The Lintel 120mm Modular Lightbox can be combined with 45°, 60°, and 90° angle accessories to create different booth shapes. Simply insert the angle parts into the grooves on the lightbox's sides and lock them to connect two lightboxes. You can freely create L-shaped, U-shaped, or other basic backlit trade show booths. Lintel also offers arch gate connectors and storage room connectors, allowing you to create arch gate backlit booths or trade show booths with the storage room for options.

3. Backlit Trade Show Booth with Retail Display System

The Lintel 120mm Modular Lightbox can have AA columns assembled on both sides, allowing you to hang TV holders, shelves, hanging rods, pegboards, hook racks, literature holders, and other retail display systems for product display. The Lintel retail display system supports weights of 5-20 kg, meeting the needs for retail and trade show displays. The AA columns and retail display system can also be customized in colour to match the 120mm lightbox frame colour, creating a unified backlit trade show booth design.

If you're concerned about the AA columns disrupting the overall backdrop design, you can use magnetic hooks, magnetic shelves, and magnetic hanging rods. These accessories can be assembled on the lightbox's support rods and hidden behind SEG fabric graphics. When not in use, they can be removed, leaving a clean, seamless backdrop.

For heavier product displays, Lintel also offers tube frame side display racks and tube frame retail display systems. These systems are also tool-free and can be used for decoration or simple product displays when paired with TV holders, shelves, or pegboards.

Lintel provides multiple backlit trade show booth solutions, including standard 3x3m, 3x6m, and 6x6m sizes that can be ordered quickly. If you need a custom design, Lintel offers free design services. Just tell Lintel your required functions and budget, and they will recommend the best products and provide a 3D model design preview of your booth. After production, they will conduct a test assembly and send you images and videos for approval, allowing you to make changes if needed.

4. Backlit Trade Show Booth with RGB Frame

The Lintel 120mm LED RGB Frame is a new product made from anodized aluminum frames. It can be combined with the 120mm modular lightbox to make your booth even more eye-catching. The biggest advantage of the Lintel RGB Frame is that it is 12 kg lighter than the same 3x2 m size lightboxes! It also supports double-sided RGB display, while most market products only support single-sided RGB display. The RGB frame can be assembled and disassembled without tools, supports remote colour switching,  LED strips can be modularly assembled and disassembled without tools, and when paired with SEG fabric graphics, it creates the perfect combination of a lightbox and RGB frame. You can also add shelves, TV holders, and hanging rods for product display. The matching RGB lightbox counter helps complete a cohesive booth design.

5. Irregularly Shaped Angled Fabric Lightbox Booth

The Lintel 120mm modular lightbox supports custom shapes, such as trapezoidal, diamond, curve, and triangular designs. These unique shapes allow you to make your booth more vibrant and dynamic.

6. Conclusion

The five booth designs mentioned above are all based on the Lintel 120mm modular lightbox. This means that for dealers and agents, the Lintel 120mm modular lightbox can meet most customer needs. All components, including the LED strips, can be assembled and disassembled without tools. If any parts break, you only need to buy replacements, reducing maintenance costs. A 6x6 (20x20 ft) lightbox booth can be assembled by two people in just one hour, without extra assembly fees. Lintel also offers trolley bag packaging, so a 6x6 booth can fit into four trolley bags, making it easy to transport in a car trunk. This is perfect for clients who attend frequent trade shows and events, as it is lightweight and portable.
