Black Silk Draping Backdrop - no Swag

Need to hide a busy wall? Create a clean stage backdrop? Divide a large room without building actual walls? Our black silk curtain backdrop is one of the hardest-working items in our hire range.

Made from silk satin, the fabric has a soft, crease-free drape with a luxurious finish. It creates a polished backdrop for awards nights, conferences, and school productions - without competing for attention.

The freestanding pole system adjusts from 1.8m to 3m high, with each section extending up to 3m wide. Need to cover a longer wall? Simply add more sections. The modular system can stretch beyond 30 metres, making it ideal for everything from small presentations to full venue draping. Black pole covers are also included to neatly conceal the outer uprights.

This hire includes:

• Black silk curtain (Choose your width in the top drop-down menu)
• Freestanding extendable pole & drape system
• Heavy-duty weighted base plates
• Black pole covers

It's designed to disappear. Which is exactly why it works so well. The speakers, performers and branding should be what people remember - not the storage room, basketball hoops or beige brick wall behind them.

Dimensions: 
Adjustable from 1.8m to 3m high. Width is hired in 3m sections, with additional sections available to create backdrops up to 30m+ wide.

Weight: 
Weighted steel base plates (6.5kg each) keep the backdrop stable during your event.

Colour:
Black

Material:
150gsm Premium Ice Silk Satin. It hangs beautifully, photographs brilliantly and is perfect for backdrops.

DIY Friendly? 
Yes! The backdrop is straightforward to assemble (small widths only) and packs down to fit in most cars. We'll show you how it all goes together - no engineering degree required.
