Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Lightweight, cardboard exhibits

We are looking to create multiple copies of an informational piece for a science project we are managing. We would like to create a free standing exhibit using corrugated  cardboard displays. So they would be lightweight, easy to set up and have 3 or 4 sides on which to print content. We want to be able to distribute them to schools and museums in the regions where this science project is taking place. So lightweight is important for shipping. And will not get them back, so low cost is important. And we would like to produce like 500.

My question for the list is: Does anyone know of a company that produces free standing corrugated "kiosks" with full color printing?

I have found one company that produces the commercial "kiosks" that you see filled with DVDs, candy at Valentine's Day, etc. But they don't make museum exhibits, so their design choices are limited. Unless we want the exhibit to look like a retail POS. Which we don't really.

Reply on list or email me. Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Patrick McQuillan
