Banners On The Fly
    2026 exhibitor plannerOfficial details reviewed

    International Woodworking Fair

    IWF Atlanta is a major woodworking technology and manufacturing marketplace. Large machinery and demonstrations can dominate booth sightlines, so banner placement should identify the brand and application even when the product itself blocks part of the display.

    Final check at checkout

    Use the displayed delivery estimate—not this planning checkpoint.

    Banner direction

    Make the booth readable from the aisle.

    Map graphics around machine height, safety zones, and demonstration traffic. Use an overhead or rear-wall brand banner plus smaller application signs close to the relevant equipment.

    Size ideas

    Three common starting points

    6 × 2 ft

    Table-front or low rail

    Confirm the visible table width and attachment method.

    8 × 3 ft

    Back-wall or aisle header

    Check pipe-and-drape width and neighboring sightlines.

    8 × 8 ft

    Step-and-repeat backdrop

    Verify booth depth, stand footprint, and fire rules.

    These are planning examples, not event specifications. Confirm booth dimensions, permitted display height, mounting, and fire-code requirements in the exhibitor manual before ordering.

    Before artwork approval

    Four checks that prevent show-floor surprises

    1. 01

      Booth dimensions

      Measure the visible area after tables, displays, monitors, and neighboring booths are considered.

    2. 02

      Hanging and fire rules

      Confirm material, height, rigging, grommet, stand, and flame-resistance requirements with show management.

    3. 03

      Shipping destination

      Check advance-warehouse and direct-to-show dates. Do not assume the convention center accepts unattended packages.

    4. 04

      Distance readability

      Print a reduced proof, step back, and make sure the brand, category, and main message remain easy to scan.
