which provides a wide range of signage services and solutions to the trade. Commenting on the current state of the modular signs market, Kirsty Corcoran, marketing manager at Very, says that demand for these solutions remains high among Very’s customer base, with no immediate signs of a decline in popularity. “We’ve observed an increased demand for portable, easy-to-assemble systems that are practical for setup,” Corcoran explains, continuing: “In today’s world, people seek maximum effciency. Most of our clients who purchase modular solutions regularly attend events and desire simple, easily constructed solutions that maintain a stylish, impactful finish. “Currently, sustainable and eco-friendly solutions are also having a significant influence on the market. People desire reusable, durable solutions that require less frequent replacement, not only from an environmental perspective but also from a cost standpoint.” So, are there still opportunities for growth and expansion for sign-makers in what is already a busy sector? Corcoran believes so, saying that there will always, “without doubt”, be scope for success in the market. “The options are only expanding, making it an ideal opportunity for sign-makers to explore different modular event systems and partner with a silent trade supplier that can provide them comprehensive solutions,” Corcoran explains. This brings Corcoran on to explain some of the latest and most popular solutions available to customers from Very. The company currently offers two modular display systems in the form of Tube Fabric Displays and Premium PVC LED Lightboxes, both in a selection of widths. “Each provides a high-impact, stylish solution that can immediately enhance a business and make a statement at a trade event,” Corcoran says. Starting with the Fabric Tube range, comprising a host of modular tube fabric displays, offering a variety of stretch fabric walls and additional accessories. With these solutions, Very says, users can create the size and shape that best suits their customers’ own needs. Furthermore, all fabric graphics are reusable and suitable for washing, with walls supplied in widths from 1m to 6m. As for its LED Lightbox offering, these modular solutions are similar to the Fabric Tube walls, however, can offer a very different effect to the finished product, as Corcoran explains: “Our Lightboxes are great solutions for those looking to create a high-impact display that attracts the maximum attention. With captivating back-lit graphics and a modern profile, you really will light up the room with this one! They are available in widths from 61 Issue 254 - August / September 2024 email: news@signlink.co.uk Vivid offers three models across its VeloBlade Nexus range - the 1815, 2516 and 3016 Factoid 85cm to 3m wide.” With this, Corcoran considers what the future may hold for modular sign systems and how sign-makers can take advantage of expected, ongoing growth. She says: “In the foreseeable future, we anticipate a steady growth in this demand as more and more customers explore the benefits of cost-effective, portable, multiuse systems. “Our customers are increasingly interested in solutions that offer them the best value for their money while also providing mobility and versatility. We have no doubt that modular display solutions will continue to be an attractive option for consumers looking to maximise their investment.” With seemingly plenty of scope for growth and expansion, it appears that a move into the modular sign systems market – if you are not already active in the sector – could be seen as something as a no-brainer. However, as is the case with moving into any new area of work, you should only do so if you are certain of demand among existing customers and have the right skill set to carry out this work. Partnering with trusted suppliers and manufacturers, or linking up with experienced trade partners, will set you on the right path. ► LED modular lightbox solutions are available from Very Displays in widths from 85cm to 3m wide MODULAR SIGN SYSTEMS ▼ Very Displays’ Fabric Tube range comprises a selection of modular tube fabric displays
