Freestanders are modular, self-supporting walls, columns, and cubes designed to make temporary event environments look polished, branded, and professional—without the need for venue wall mounting, heavy equipment, or long install times. Patented and produced by Brightformat, the system features magnetic panels that snap together easily—no tools needed.

Freestanders are used by event professionals, experiential marketers, corporate planners, venue managers, and exhibit designers who need fast, flexible, and polished-looking wall solutions.

Freestanders are ideal for events, activations, corporate initiatives, pop-ups, weddings, branded environments and short-term displays.

Freestanders combine the ease of soft goods with the aesthetic and structure of hard walls. They’re fully modular, require no external supports, and are built to be brandable, scalable, and tool-free. Unlike printed fabric and metal frames, they don’t look temporary or cheap—and unlike hard wall installs, they don’t require heavy labor or venue damage waivers.

Installation is only a few steps. Panels are shipped flat and snap together using hidden magnets — no tools needed!

No tools are needed. Everything clicks and locks together by hand thanks to our patented magnetic system. For large installs, a step stool or ladder may be helpful for efficiency, but it’s not required.
