In 1952 Marler Haley produced the first modular display system. In 1960 an enquiry from Vauxhall Motors revealed a need for vertical surfaces to support graphics and the Multiscreen display board was created. Nearly 60 years on it is still a popular portable display system.

The company became aware of the universal need for simple systems which could be constructed and dismantled easily. A period of growth and development saw the introduction of new products setting the pace for for Marler Haley’s success in the portable display market.

Since the birth of modular displays, portable graphic displays have grown in popularity.

With print production becoming faster, cheaper and more environmentally friendly, it's now rare to see a shell scheme exhibition stand without some form of graphic taking centre stage.

This shifted Marler Haley from a modular display supplier to focusing on large format printing.

As well as graphics now playing a central role in most displays, we are seeing a fundemental shift in customer demand toward fabric displays.

Fabric display stands are lightweight alternatives to traditional pop up stands and come in a variety of shapes and sizes.

The resulting displays allow for a new depth of print with wow-worthy designs and a full seamless graphic.

Our future

We're proud of our history and how far we've evolved as a business.

With large format printing now at the core of Marler Haley (although we still make amazing display boards too), we're excited about the direction we're heading and how we'll evolve in the coming years.
