We manufactured a series of large hanging polystyrene balls<\/a> for Fred and Ginger, created as part of an exhibition stand for their client, M\u00f6lnlycke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"M\u00f6lnlycke<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The display used balls in several different diameters\u2014450 mm, 500 mm, 600 mm, 700 mm and 800 mm\u2014to create a cluster of suspended green spheres above the stand. Varying the sizes gave the overhead display more depth and made it visible across the exhibition hall without adding excessive weight to the stand structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparing the Balls for Exhibition Use<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each polystyrene ball was carefully sanded to produce a smoother, more consistent surface before being coated with Idenden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Idenden coating sealed and strengthened the surface while also increasing its resistance to flame\u2014an important consideration for materials being used within an exhibition environment. The balls were then painted in a vibrant green finish to complement M\u00f6lnlycke\u2019s branding and the wider stand design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also fitted each ball with a secure hanging point, allowing Fred and Ginger\u2019s installation team to suspend them safely at different heights above the completed stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lightweight Suspended Display Props<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Large polystyrene spheres work particularly well for overhead exhibition displays. Their scale makes them visually effective, while their low weight makes them far easier to handle and suspend than equivalent props made from heavier materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The completed arrangement created a simple but striking feature above the M\u00f6lnlycke stand, helping the space stand out within a busy exhibition hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can manufacture large polystyrene balls in a wide range of diameters, with options including smooth coatings, painted finishes, glitter, branding and secure hanging or fixing points. They can be produced as individual statement pieces or in groups for exhibition stands<\/a>, retail displays, events and photographic installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
