Create a distinctive curved exhibition backdrop with our Curved Hop Up Fabric Pop Up Display Stand. The lightweight expanding frame supports a seamless one-piece fabric graphic and assembles without tools in just minutes.
The inward-curving shape creates a more enveloping presentation area than a straight display wall, making it ideal for exhibitions, conferences, media backdrops, product launches and corporate events.
The inward curve creates an engaging and more enveloping backdrop for exhibitions and presentations.
A one-piece printed fabric graphic covers the curved face and flat end returns without separate vertical panels.
Expand the aluminium scissor frame and connect the integral locking arms. No specialist tools are required.
The fabric can remain partially fitted when the frame is collapsed, reducing handling and speeding up repeat setup.
Choose from 3x2, 3x3, 3x4 and 3x5 curved frame configurations.
Each graphic is printed, sewn, finished, inspected and tested by our own production team.
A curved Hop Up display uses an expanding aluminium scissor frame to support a large printed fabric graphic. The front surface forms an inward curve, creating a more enclosed and visually engaging presentation area than a straight exhibition backwall.
The graphic is produced as one continuous fabric panel. It follows the curved face of the frame before wrapping around the flat ends of the display, avoiding the visible joins associated with separate traditional pop up graphic panels.
All four frames are approximately 2250mm high. The overall width and maximum floor depth increase according to the chosen frame size.
The quoted depth represents the maximum projection of the curved display. It is measured from the rear centre of the stand to the front edge at either the left or right-hand end.
Wider frame configurations form a deeper curve and therefore require progressively more floor space.
A compact curved backdrop for presentations, reception areas and smaller exhibition spaces.
A versatile general-purpose option balancing useful display width with manageable floor depth.
A wider backdrop suited to larger exhibition pitches, conferences and product launches.
A substantial curved display for stages, media areas and spacious event environments.
| Frame Size | Height | Width | Maximum Depth |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3x2 | 2250mm | 1460mm | 340mm |
| 3x3 | 2250mm | 2250mm | 510mm |
| 3x4 | 2250mm | 2910mm | 640mm |
| 3x5 | 2250mm | 3520mm | 860mm |
| Frame Size | Packed Case Dimensions | Estimated Complete Weight |
|---|---|---|
| 3x2 | W 230 × D 310 × H 900mm | Approx. 9.3kg |
| 3x3 | W 320 × D 310 × H 900mm | Approx. 11.3kg |
| 3x4 | W 370 × D 310 × H 900mm | Approx. 13.7kg |
| 3x5 | W 430 × D 310 × H 900mm | Approx. 15.9kg |
Estimated complete weights include the frame, finished fabric graphic and an allowance for the supplied transport case. Final packed weights may vary slightly. All dimensions and weights are approximate.
The one-piece printed graphic follows the curved framework and is secured using fastening sewn around the fabric perimeter.
The sewn fastening connects to the corresponding Velcro around the outer edge of the expanded aluminium frame.
The continuous fabric follows the curved front face and wraps around the flat left and right-hand end returns.
At the back of the display, the graphic connects to the Velcro-covered frame hubs where the fabric intersects them.
The curved frame expands from its compact stored state and is held open by integral quick-release locking arms positioned across the framework.
No loose magnetic bars, separate support poles or specialist tools are required. Expand the frame, connect the locking arms and secure the graphic around the rear fastening points.
To dismantle the display, release the rear areas of the fabric, disconnect the locking arms and gently allow the frame to collapse.
The fabric graphic does not need to be completely removed whenever the display is packed away.
Before collapsing the frame, release the fabric from the rear hubs and back vertical edges. The remainder of the graphic can stay attached around the curved front perimeter while the framework folds down.
The collapsed frame and attached graphic can then be placed directly into the supplied transport case.
Your curved display is supplied printed, finished and prepared for straightforward assembly.
Collapsible scissor framework with integral quick-release locking arms.
One-piece printed graphic covering the curved face and flat end returns.
A wheeled case sized to suit the selected curved frame configuration.
Your supplied artwork is reviewed before the graphic enters production.
Both systems provide a seamless portable fabric backdrop, but their shape and floor-space requirements differ.

It is a portable exhibition backdrop consisting of an expanding aluminium scissor frame and a one-piece printed fabric graphic. The display forms an inward curve across the front and has flat printed returns at either end.
The curved stand creates a more enveloping and sculptural backdrop, but requires greater floor depth. The straight version produces a flat exhibition wall and occupies less floor space.
The maximum depth is measured from the rear centre of the display to the front edge at either end. Wider frames create a deeper curve and therefore require more floor space.
Yes. The expanding frame and integral locking arms are designed for straightforward tool-free assembly. Larger sizes may be easier to position with assistance where space is restricted.
Assembly normally takes only a few minutes. Subsequent setup is even quicker because most of the fabric graphic can remain attached when the frame is folded and stored.
Yes. Release the fabric from the rear hubs and back vertical edges before collapsing the frame. The remainder of the graphic can stay attached around the curved front perimeter.
Yes. The curved front face and flat end returns are produced as one continuous printed fabric graphic, avoiding separate vertical panel joins.
Under normal indoor exhibition lighting, framework show-through is generally not noticeable. With very pale artwork and unusually strong rear lighting, such as directly in front of a bright window, a slight outline may occasionally be visible.
The 3x2 is suitable for compact spaces, while the 3x3 is a versatile general-purpose option. The 3x4 and 3x5 create wider and deeper backdrops for larger exhibition areas and stages. Check both the available width and floor depth before ordering.
Yes. Replacement fabric graphics can be supplied for compatible curved frames. Where the frame was originally purchased elsewhere, we may need photographs, dimensions or the original artwork template before confirming compatibility.
The fabric may be carefully washed at a maximum temperature of 30°C. Do not tumble dry, bleach or use a high-speed spin cycle. Open the graphic out after washing and allow it to air dry naturally.
No. It is primarily an indoor display. Its lightweight frame and large printed surface should not be exposed to wind or adverse outdoor conditions.
The complete display includes the curved aluminium frame, full-colour printed fabric graphic and a wheeled transport case sized for the selected configuration. Your supplied artwork is also checked before production.
The curved Hop Up combines a lightweight expanding frame, seamless printed fabric graphic and compact wheeled storage with a distinctive sweeping shape that creates a strong focal point at exhibitions and events.
Choose from four curved configurations and let our Staffordshire production team print, sew, finish, test and pack your complete display ready for delivery.

Once you have placed an order for a printed product, we will need you to provide us with your artwork, so we could start the production. It's important that any artwork you provide is compatible for the product(s) that you have ordered. You can find instructions regarding particular artwork requirements on the relevant product pages of our website.
If you can't provide artwork at the correct size or format then please get in touch. We offer a full in-house design service for all products and we can provide an individual quote based on your needs and requirements. Just email us with your requirements by contacting our designer directly at [email protected] or feel free to use our online chat facility for a quick consultation.
You can upload your artwork in one of several ways

If you send your artwork via email, file transfer service or FTP, please send an email to [email protected] and provide your order number along with any other specific instructions.
When we receive your artwork we will update you to let you know that your files have been received. We will also confirm that the artwork you have provided is suitable for the products that you have ordered.
We use a range of courier companies to deliver our exhibition stands and other products. Most couriers will require a signature on the delivery of your order to confirm the date and time of the delivery (and that the goods are received in good condition).
Normally we will email the tracking information for your order on the evening of the day of dispatch so that you can know to expect the delivery. If you want to check the progress of the delivery then you can enter the tracking information online for an update or call the telephone number provided.
If no-one is available to sign for your delivery then the courier will normally leave a card to say that a delivery was attempted and would then take the parcel away. The delivery is normally re-attempted the next working day.
Depending on the courier, the delivery could be re-attempted two or three times before the parcel would eventually be returned to us. If the courier attempts delivery on multiple occasions with no success resulting in the parcel being returned then we can re-dispatch the parcel again for you but would bill the carriage cost again.
Sometimes we are asked if the courier can telephone in advance of the delivery being made. Unfortunately this is not possible because the couriers are not generally provided with mobile telephones. All instructions tend to be relayed to the courier by the depot via a hand held computer terminal that the driver carries.
If you need to receive a delivery on a particular day but are not going to be around to sign for the parcel then the best advice we can give is to write a note explaining that you are expecting a delivery but are not around to receive it. You can request the courier leaves the parcel with no signature or with a neighbor. We would advise that you write the consignment note of the parcel on the letter and sign it.
Ultimately it is down to the drivers discretion whether to leave the parcel and so we cannot accept responsibility for late deliveries if there is no one available to accept the order when the delivery is made.
For most items that are printed, the standard production time is 5 working days.
Based on standard production if an order arrives on a Monday morning (first thing) then the goods should be dispatched no later than the following Monday.
If orders are placed later in the day then we would not normally class that day as a full day’s production time and therefore an order placed on a Monday afternoon would be dispatched no later than a week the following Tuesday.
For rush orders, we offer an express production service whereby the item can printed and dispatched in 1-2 working days. An item placed on express production on a Monday would generally ship no later than Tuesday the day after. We recommend you call us prior to placing an express order to confirm your delivery schedule.
We offer a variety of courier services selectable from the checkout on our website. Standard delivery is normally next working day from the day of dispatch (so an order dispatched on a Tuesday would be delivered on Wednesday).
We also offer timed delivery services (pre-noon, pre 10.30am, pre 9am etc) at additional costs.
Please note that although we always do everything within our power to ensure that goods are dispatched on-time, there can be rare occasions whereby production could be delayed due to circumstances outside of our control. Such circumstances could involve a power outage, equipment failure etc.
With regards to courier delivery times, there is no insurance or consequential insurance for late deliveries with next day couriers. We would always recommend that you arrange for a delivery to be made in advance of your required date just in case!
For no-fail deliveries we can arrange for a dedicated vehicle and driver – please call for prices.
The Pantone colour scale is an industry standard series of reference colours for use in the printing industry.
Pantone or spot colours are normally used by lithographic or screen printers when printing items with a limited number of colours (for example a letterhead, or stationary). Pantone ink is purchased by the printer who then creates a screen or plate specifically for that colour ink.
We use a CMYK (full colour) process of printing rather than a spot colour method. With a CMYK print process, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black are mixed by layering ink on top of each other to create a full-colour image. Sometimes other colours like light cyan and light magenta are also used to improve print quality.
We cannot guarantee to match all Pantone colours because some Pantone’s contain pigments that push the colour outside of the spectrum of colours available with CMYK inks.
An example would be Pantone 021 orange which is a very bright, almost neon colour. It is impossible to get a close match to this colour with CMYK printing because the colour is too bright.
There are many other colours in the Pantone spectrum that are relatively easy to match but also some that are impossible to closely match. Pantone sell a solid to process guide book which is useful because the Pantone colour is shows next to the nearest CMYK colour as two separate colour chips. If you can access a Pantone solid to process guide book then you can see at a glance how closely your pantone colour can be matched with a CMYK printing process.
All artwork supplied should be set as CMYK colour mode, not Pantone spot colour. If you do not have a Pantone solid to process guide book and need some advice as to the best CMYK colour value to use in the artwork, please call and we can help.
If you have very precise colour matching requirements for your artwork then we recommend purchasing a reduced-scale hard copy proof prior to printing the finished article. The cost is £20 and includes delivery of the proof to a mainland UK address.
As a rule of thumb, we recommend that artwork resolution should be 150dpi or greater at full scale for a large format print (anything A2 or larger).
If you are designing your artwork at a reduced scale (say half or quarter size) then the resolution of the artwork needs to be increased proportionally so that when the file is blown-up for printing, the quality is high enough to allow for it.
So, if setting your artwork at half size then double the resolution to 300dpi or if setting the artwork at quarter size then quadruple the resolution to 600dpi!
What if my image is not big enough for 150dpi output at full size?
When printing images at very large sizes, it is not uncommon that the original file be unavailable at a large enough size to provide 150dpi output and this does not mean that you cannot use the image! In fact much smaller images can sometimes be OK for print.
Bear in mind factors that determine if the image is acceptable:-
Most displays have a viewing distance of at least a couple of Metres and so a large background image need not contain pin-sharp detail. If the image is abstract or does not contain precise detail then you can ‘get away’ with using a smaller image.
If your image is small then you can up-sample it in an application like Photoshop which increases the image size by splitting the pixels (interpolating) into more pixels. A byproduct of this process is the image can become ‘softer’ and it is therefore a good idea to zoom-in on the picture at approximately finished size on screen and then stand back from the display to gain an impression of what the printed result would be like.
If you have concerns about image quality then let us know about it when you submit your artwork and one of our team can take a look for you.
We support most ‘industry-standard’ artwork file types. Examples of supported formats include:-
We also accept generic artwork formats including:-
When supplying artwork from the original design package (for example an Adobe Indesign file), it is important to send over all linked images and fonts as well as the Adobe Indesign document itself.
If you are exporting artwork from a design package into a generic format such as PDF then there is generally no need to supply artwork components such as images and fonts separately unless you need us to re-open and edit the file for you.
Most people would typically supply us with the exported generic file rather than the original artwork file and links.
We accept most common credit cards including Mastercard, Visa and American Express via the payment gateway on our website. We also can accept payments via PayPal.
