About Our Brands
What are your main product ranges?
- Lumi, an SEG lightbox display series
- Expolinc, a premium non-illuminated display line, which includes Classic Frames and Roll-Up Banners
- Trax, our expandable, non-illuminated SEG fabric displays
- Vista, the newest line for fabric tube displays
What is an SEG fabric display?
SEG stands for silicone edge graphics, a commonly used display solution. Silicone strips are sewn onto the edge of the fabric, which is then attached to the edge of the frames.
The silicone strips make it easier to insert and remove the fabric, allowing you to change graphics as needed and reuse the frames.
What is the difference between an illuminated and a non-illuminated SEG display?
What is the size and weight of your display units?
You can find detailed measurements and weight information under the Specifications tab on each product page.
Can I use Exhibit Central’s displays outdoors?
We strongly recommend using our displays indoors, especially the Lumi lightboxes. You might struggle finding a reliable power supply outdoors, and the electrical components of the lightbox could be exposed to weather damage. Additionally, its effectiveness may be diminished in broad daylight.
Our Classic Frames and Trax displays don’t require power, but we still recommend using them indoors to ensure their longevity and visual appeal.
I’m only using the display a few times. Can I just rent it?
No, unfortunately, we don’t offer that kind of service. We can help you find a product that suits your needs and budget, though. Just email us, and we’ll be happy to guide you.
Installing the SEG Fabric Displays
Can I change the graphics on my display unit?
Absolutely! All our display units use SEG fabrics, which means they’re fully customisable and reusable. If you want to refresh your graphics, you can easily order new fabric from us. With multiple graphics on hand, you can quickly swap them out, allowing you to adapt your display for different events.
How do I install the SEG fabric onto the display?
To install the SEG fabric, simply utilise the silicone strips along the edges of the fabric to slide it into the narrow channels around the display. For a more detailed visual guide, we recommend checking out our tutorial video, which provides step-by-step instructions for a hassle-free installation process.
Portability, Modularity and Easy Assembly
I have a lot of events to use these for. Do I need to hire someone to set this up every time?
No worries! Our products are designed to be portable, modular and easy to assemble. You won’t need any technical expertise or professional help—our displays feature intuitive designs and come packaged in convenient, easy-to-transport bags or cases.
How many times can I use my displays?
All our display units are designed to be durable and completely customisable, allowing you to reuse them for multiple events. You can even order new fabrics and connect more frames together to make bigger displays, making our displays the top cost-effective choice for expos and events.
Can I connect individual displays together to make a larger display?
Absolutely! This flexibility is one of the key advantages of Exhibit Central’s products. You can easily connect multiple displays to expand your setup using our specially designed accessories.
Whether you’re aiming for a custom configuration or need a pre-packaged solution for standard booth sizes, our versatile products allow for easy assembly and customisation to meet your exhibition needs.
Can I mix and match components from different display brands?
Some displays may be used together; we can try our best to suggest products that fit your creative needs. However, we recommend joining frames from the same product line, as each has dedicated accessories for seamless integration. Connecting frames from different brands might not deliver the best results.
Maintaining the Display Units
How do I clean my display units?
To keep your display units looking their best, we recommend gently wiping down the profiles with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents or aggressive methods like power washing, as these can damage the materials.
How do I clean the fabrics of my SEG displays?
We recommend washing the polyester fabric in a cold, low-spin cycle using detergent for sensitive materials. Allow the fabric to air dry completely before reassembling the display unit to maintain the quality and longevity. We highly suggest not tumble-drying the fabric, although ironing it on low heat should be fine.
Can I clean my display unit and fabric together?
We do not recommend that, since the fabric needs to be washed, and water may damage the display profiles and revoke your warranty.
How do I store my displays when not in use?
We recommend keeping your displays in their dedicated packaging, whether it’s a nylon bag, travel case or hard case. These are designed to protect your display during transit, so keeping them stored this way when not in use ensures they remain safe and in excellent condition.
Why is the fabric wrinkled and loose?
Why does my fabric have marks on it?
In large format printing, it’s often advisable to let the fabric de-gas for 12 hours before use. If the fabric has been wrapped and stored in a bag for an extended period, marks may appear because of the trapped gases. Allowing the fabric to de-gas ensures a smoother, mark-free finish for your display unit.

Technical Questions
What materials are Lumi lightboxes made of?
Lumi lightboxes and accessories are made of PVC frames, powder-coated metal and acrylic.
How heavy are the Lumi lightboxes?
The weight of the lightbox depends on the size. Reach out to us to learn more.
What sizes are available for the Lumi lightboxes?
How thick are the lightbox frame profiles?
The profiles are 120mm thick.
How do I power up my Lumi lightbox?
Our Lumi lightboxes feature Osram 3W LED lights integrated into the top and bottom profiles. To illuminate your display, simply connect the corresponding profiles and use the provided power adapter to activate the lightbox.
Each power adapter can support up to three profiles with LED lights, ensuring optimal brightness. Larger configurations may require additional adapters for sufficient lighting coverage.
How bright are the Lumi lightboxes?
The Osram 3W LED lights are small but powerful bulbs that produce bright, daylight-like illumination, which are perfect for closed spaces. With a colour temperature of 6500K, they give off a cool, crisp light so you can see your graphics clearly, even from afar.
What is the lifespan of the LED bulbs?
These energy-saving LED bulbs are designed to last over 10,000 hours. That’s more than enough to power through countless trade shows, giving you ample opportunities to promote your brand at every event.
Can I control the brightness of the lights?
No, unfortunately, the brightness is already at a fixed level once you receive the product. However, we can ensure some level of light control using the graphic fabrics.
Do I need to charge the lightbox?
No, you don’t need to charge the Lumi lightboxes. You do need a reliable power outlet nearby, and you may need more than one for bigger displays, since one power adapter can only power up to three profiles with LED lights.
Can I use batteries in the lightbox?
No, the Lumi lightboxes are not designed to be powered by ordinary batteries. You will need to plug your display into a nearby power source, which is why we recommend using these displays indoors.
Setting Up Your Lumi Lightbox
What is on the back of the lightbox?
When ordering artwork for your lightboxes, you can choose between single-sided or double-sided displays.
- Single-sided: A plain blockout SEG fabric is provided, which you will need to install at the back of your lightbox. This fabric prevents glare, ensuring a comfortable viewing experience for everyone around the display.
- Double-sided: Your lightbox will come with two printed SEG fabrics, featuring your artwork on both sides. This configuration is perfect for island-type displays, allowing people to view your area from any angle.
Can I join lightboxes together to make a larger display?
Certainly! You can seamlessly join multiple lightboxes together to expand your display area using our specially designed accessories. Whether you are looking to create a custom configuration or need a pre-packaged solution for standard booth sizes, our versatile system allows for easy assembly and customisation to suit your exhibition needs.
How long do I need to set up my Lumi lightbox?
Depending on the size of the lightbox and whether you ordered a curated package, setup won’t take too much of your time. With intuitive design, the lightboxes can be set up and powered in minutes, giving you more time to prepare for other tasks for your event.
Can I mount a TV on my lightbox?
Can I use them without the lighting?
Sure, the lightboxes can still function as regular displays without the lighting, but you’d be missing out on maximising their impact. The Lumi lightboxes are designed to enhance visibility and draw attention, making your booth truly stand out. We highly recommend using the lighting to fully leverage the vibrant, eye-catching visuals that these displays are known for.
Why are the support poles in various lengths?
The horizontal support poles are supposed to be shorter than the vertical support poles. The lightbox profiles are marked where these poles will go to guide the installation process.
Troubleshooting
The LED lights are flickering. Is that normal?
The LED lights may flicker in three situations:
- Overloaded Power Adapter: If the power adapter is powering more than three (3) LED modules, it may be overloaded, causing the lights to flicker.
- Loose Connection: A loose connection between the components can disrupt the power flow, leading to flickering.
- Faulty LED Module: In the unlikely event that an LED module is faulty, it could also cause flickering.
To resolve the issue, please turn off the power, check and secure all connections and then switch the power back on.
If the issue persists after standard troubleshooting, contact us right away.
Why is my lightbox not lighting up?
Please ensure that the connections in the lightbox and power adapter are not loose. You can also try to plug the adapter into another power outlet. If everything is installed correctly and the lightbox is still not working, please contact us as soon as possible with photos or any other proof of the issue.
Logistics and Other Questions
How can I take my Lumi lightboxes to different events?
The Lumi lightboxes come in their own wheeled nylon bags for easy transport. This should make it a hassle-free experience bringing them to any venue and packing them up afterwards.
Do I need to have it assembled before taking it to the event venue? That won’t fit in my car.
Can the lightbox heat up the room?
No, since the lightbox lighting is designed only to illuminate. While it’s bright enough to make your graphics stand out, it won’t generate any noticeable warmth in the room.
Can I use my lightbox as a nightlight at home?
While we appreciate your creativity, even our smallest lightbox (1x1m counter) might be too big and bright for a nightlight. Plus, Lumi’s LED bulbs cast off cool light; for nightlights, warm lighting is recommended.
If I connect two displays, will that double the brightness?
The lighting is embedded in the lightbox’s profiles, so it’s evenly distributed to your display. Rest assured that the lighting will be consistent across your graphic.
Expolinc

How are Classic Frames different from Lumi lightboxes?
Aside from the lack of illumination embedded in the profiles, the Classic Frames are a more premium solution. Lumi is our starter line of displays, made of high-quality PVC.

Classic Frames also come with magnetic clutches at the ends of the frame profiles for additional support.

Yes, the Classic Frames’ clever system design offers the ability to connect individual frames together using various accessories. The joined frames create a larger, cohesive display area that effectively showcases your brand message, making a significant impact at your marketing event.
Do I need to have an SEG fabric on the back side of the Classic Frames?
Generally, no, you will not need it, especially if your Classic Frame is placed against a wall. But if it’s on the opposite side of another booth space or freestanding in the middle of an open space (island type), we recommend ordering double-sided frames, which will cost an additional fee.
Can I add lighting to my Classic Frames?
Classic Frames may be designed as a non-illuminated premium alternative to a lightbox, but you can add illumination using arm lights.
It’s not bright enough.
Then we recommend checking out our Lumi lightboxes.

Classic Frames come packaged in either a travel case or a hard case, depending on your choosing. They are both great options for packing up your frames and taking them to all your events.
Do I need to have it assembled before taking it to the event venue? That won’t fit in my car.
You don’t need to pre-assemble it outside of the venue. You can simply bring the display, disassembled and packed in the travel or hard case, and assemble it when you arrive by your booth space.
Can I use my frame without the feet?
Unfortunately, we recommend using all the components that came with your order to ensure that your display has adequate support.
Can I use this as an office divider?
Sure, it’s possible to use Classic Frames as office dividers. Just make sure you order the right size.

Vista
About Vista
What is Vista?
What are the key features of the Vista media walls?
Our Vista media walls are a great choice for businesses that want wide, premium-quality displays without the premium cost.
The main features include:
- High-quality tubular aluminium frames, held together by bungee cords.
- A push-button locking system to secure the aluminium frame pieces together when assembled.
- Seamless tension fabric for graphics, printed using dye sublimation.
- Effortless, tool-free assembly within 10 to 15 minutes.
- Easy transport via a soft carry bag.
- Versatile use for exhibitions, events and retail promotions.

Technical Questions
What material is the Vista media walls made from?
How heavy are the Vista media walls?
What sizes are available for the Vista media walls?
How do I keep my Vista media wall stable?
The Vista media walls have a push-lock system, where you need to press a metal nub to secure the frame pieces together. Along with the bungee cords, this keeps your frame pieces connected. Only the Straight variant has full feet included for stability.
What material is the fabric made from?
Your artwork will be printed using dye sublimation on tension fabric, a type of material that stretches to fit snugly over a frame.
How do I put the fabric over the media wall?
The tension fabric is designed similarly to a pillowcase, which goes over your assembled tubular frame and zips up at the bottom.
Why do I need to choose a print option?
The print option you choose for your fabric affects the flexibility your media wall has to offer. Unlike our SEG displays, you don’t receive separate fabrics for each side of your media wall.
- Single-sided: Only one side of the tension fabric will have your artwork printed on it. This is ideal for setups where the media wall would be flush against the wall, since only one side is visible.
- Double-sided: Both sides of the tension fabric will have your artwork printed on them. This is a great choice for setups in open areas, where your display can be viewed from many angles.
Can I adjust the size of my media wall?
Can I attach arm lights to my media wall?
Accessories like arm lights are not available for our Vista media walls.
We also don’t recommend using arm lights from our other display brands, as they are designed for different frames. The arm lights currently available in our Store are made specifically for SEG displays, not tubular frames.
Do I need power for my media wall?

Artwork Submission
How do I send my print artwork file?
To send your print artwork file, please use our Artwork Upload page and include your order number with your submission.
If your files exceed 20 MB, kindly upload them via Google Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer and email the link to us at support@exhibit.rsgdx.com. If you need assistance with this step, one of our team members will be happy to help you.
What are your requirements when submitting artwork?
Please provide as many details as possible. Rest assured, we verify all details prior to production to ensure accuracy and meet your specifications.
What types of file formats are accepted for artwork?
We accept a variety of print-ready file formats for artwork submissions. Our preferred format is PDF (Portable Document Format), which ensures high-quality print output.
Additionally, we also accept the following file types:
- EPS (Encapsulated PostScript): Ideal for vector graphics and illustrations, ensuring scalability without quality loss.
- TIFF (Tagged Image File Format): Suitable for high-resolution images and photographs, preserving detail and clarity.
- JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): Commonly used for web and digital display, providing excellent quality at smaller file sizes.
- PSD (Adobe Photoshop Document): Native file format for Adobe Photoshop, allowing easy editing and manipulation of layered designs.
We can also support mainstream graphic design and layout programs such as Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. Trust that we review all submissions thoroughly to ensure they meet our printing standards and your specific requirements.
What is a PDF?
PDF stands for Portable Document Format, a widely used file type for sharing and printing signage artwork. Once saved, a PDF cannot be modified, preserving the integrity of your designs.
This format ensures consistent content and formatting across different devices and printing systems, which is essential for professional signages. It supports high-quality graphics, maintaining the clarity and precision of your artwork when printed.
Using print-ready formats like PDF allows you to confidently distribute your signage designs, knowing they will be reproduced accurately and securely. Additionally, you create a simple workflow, facilitating a seamless transition from design to print and delivery.
Do my files need to be high-resolution?
For optimal printing results, image resolution should be between 150 to 300 dpi at final print size (full size). Files with resolutions higher than 300 dpi increase file sizes without any visible improvement in print quality, so we recommend sticking to the standard 300 dpi.
Will I be able to proof and approve the final artwork before printing?
Yes! When you submit your artwork, we will send you an artwork approval document for your review.
It is important to check all artwork dimensions, spelling, images and all other information before giving your approval. Once the proof has been accepted and signed by you, Exhibit Central cannot accept responsibility for any errors or omissions related to the proof, nor can we be liable for any damages or losses resulting from such errors or omissions after the original proof has been approved.
Can I still make changes after artwork approval?
Once payment is received, the proofing and printing process begins immediately. To keep things on schedule, you can make changes to an approved proof only once. Any additional modifications afterwards will incur a minimum graphics fee of $120.
What are these terms like “bleed,” “resolution” and “crop marks”?
Putting together marketing collateral can involve navigating through technical details. Understanding terms like “bleed,” “resolution” and “crop marks” is essential for ensuring your materials are printed correctly.
By grasping these concepts, you can streamline the design process and achieve seamless results. Here are some of the relevant terms you may encounter during this stage:
- Bleed: The extra space added around the edges of a design that extends beyond the final size, ensuring it reaches the edge after trimming.
- Crop Marks: Lines at the corners of a document to indicate where to trim the material, ensuring accurate final size.
- CMYK: Abbreviation for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black), the four colours used in printing. Designs are converted to CMYK for printing.
- Dots per Inch (dpi): Measures print resolution, impacting print quality and clarity.
- Mockup: A preview of how a design will look before printing.
- Proof: Final sample for client approval before production begins, ensuring that colours, text and layout are correct.
- Resolution: Image sharpness and detail measured in dpi. A higher dpi means clearer prints.
- Vector Graphics: Scalable graphics made up of lines and curves rather than pixels. Ideal for logos and illustrations.
Partnering with a professional graphic designer ensures your designs meet quality standards. They are proficient in applying and understanding these terms to achieve professional print results.
Do you offer graphic design services?
No, we currently do not offer graphic design services. However, we are happy to provide advice on enhancing your existing material. Email us at support@exhibitcental.com.au or give us a call.
Do you do small format printing?
Refund, Return and Warranty
Do your displays come with a warranty?

For further details, please refer to our Warranty Policy.
Can I have my display replaced?

Do your fabrics come with a warranty?

Post-Purchase Tips and Suggestions
What should I do upon receiving the product?
We recommend thoroughly checking all components and profiles upon delivery. Check the fabric artwork and conduct a pre-installation of the product before actual use. This will allow you to have a better understanding of the product and facilitates inspection of any hardware faults or damage.
If you detect an issue with the components, please email us at support@exhibit.rsgdx.com so we can assess eligibility for replacement. Kindly refer to our Refund, Return and Warranty Policies for further information.
What is the best practice when setting up?
When setting up, we suggest doing so in a clean, spacious area free of clutter. If you have ordered a display package, please assemble one lightbox or frame at a time to avoid mixing up the profiles and components. Consult the included manual for visual guidance during installation.
Do you need tools when setting up?
No, our products are designed for tool-free assembly. Each item is part of an intuitive plug-and-play assembly system, allowing you to effortlessly slide and snap the parts together without reaching for any tools.
What should I anticipate when setting up a large lightbox or frame?
For installations involving height, we recommend using a step ladder or step stool for convenience. Additionally, some packages may weigh over 16.1 kg, so we advise that two people handle the lifting during loading and unloading. Please refer to the product page of your item for weight specifications.
