Premium LED Lightbox Counter gives your exhibition stand, event space or shop floor a bright, branded point of contact. Your artwork is printed onto backlit fabric and lit evenly from inside by built-in LEDs, so your logo and message glow with real depth and stay clear from across a busy hall.
The 1m counter pairs a white PVC frame with a black countertop and builds without tools using numbered push-fit parts, usually in around five minutes. Choose a single-sided or double-sided graphic, and everything packs into a wheeled padded bag for easy transport between shows.
Each graphic is custom printed in full colour using dye-sublimation, and our design team sends a free artwork proof before anything goes to print.

The Premium LED Lightbox Counter turns a simple welcome point into a glowing piece of branding. Your artwork is printed onto backlit fabric and lit from within by built-in LEDs, so colours stay rich and your logo reads clearly even in a dim exhibition hall. Use it as a reception desk, a sampling station or a product display, or pair it with a backlit display wall for a fully illuminated stand.

1m LED Lightbox Counter
At 1 metre high and 1 metre wide, this counter is sized for exhibition stands, foyers and shop floors where you need a branded point of contact without taking over the space. The slim 120mm frame profile keeps the footprint compact, while the countertop gives your team a practical working surface.
The graphic area measures 1000mm x 1000mm per side, giving you a large, square canvas for your logo, key message and imagery.
Built around a white PVC frame with integrated LED lighting, the counter is designed for repeated use at shows, events and in-store promotions.
Even, Bright Illumination
LED light bars run inside the frame and spread light evenly across the fabric, so there are no hot spots or dark corners. Each light delivers 590 lumens at a 6500K daylight colour temperature, keeping graphics crisp and true to colour.
Seamless Fabric Graphics
Graphics are printed onto backlit fabric with a silicone edge that presses into a channel around the frame. The result is a tight, wrinkle-free face with no visible fixings.
Quick, Tool-Free Set-Up
Numbered push-fit hardware means anyone on your team can build the counter in around five minutes, with no tools needed on the morning of a show.
Strong and Practical
The black countertop supports up to 30kg, so it handles brochures, sample stock, a tablet or a card machine with ease. The PVC frame is built to stand up to repeated assembly and transport.
Designed for Indoor Use
The lightbox counter is made for indoor environments such as exhibition halls, conference venues, shopping centres, showrooms and retail stores.

When ordering your lightbox counter, you can choose a printed graphic on the front only, or on both faces of the counter.
Single-Sided
A single-sided counter carries your printed graphic on the customer-facing side, with a plain panel on the reverse. It is the most cost-effective option and the right choice when the counter sits against a wall or towards the back of your stand.
Most counters are used this way, with staff standing behind and visitors approaching from the front.
Double-Sided
A double-sided counter carries a printed graphic on both faces, so it looks finished from every angle. It suits open-plan stands, island sites and receptions where people walk around the counter.
Both graphics are lit by the same internal LEDs, so there is no difference in brightness between the two sides.
The counter is designed to be put up by one person in minutes, with no loose tools to remember and no fiddly fixings.
Tool-free assembly
Each frame section is numbered and joins with push-fit connectors. Stand the frame on its feet, fit the countertop, then press the silicone edge of your graphic into the channel around the frame. Most people have it built in around five minutes.
Power and lighting
The LEDs come fitted in the frame and the transformers sit inside the lightbox, so all you need is a standard mains socket nearby. Total power draw is just 28W, which keeps running costs low over a multi-day show.
Changing your graphics
The graphic is a separate fabric panel, so you can swap it for a new design whenever your campaign changes without replacing the frame. Fabric graphics fold for storage and will not crack or crease like rigid panels.

A lightbox counter gives people a clear place to stop, talk and pick something up. Its glow draws the eye across a busy room, making it one of the simplest ways to pull visitors onto your stand.
Exhibitions and trade shows. Anchor your stand with a bright welcome point for conversations, literature and lead capture.
Conferences and corporate events. Registration desks, sponsor areas and information points that look polished under hall lighting.
Retail and shopping centres. Pop-up shops, promotional zones and seasonal displays that need to stand out from neighbouring units.
Product launches and sampling. A branded surface for demonstrations, tastings and giveaways.
Showrooms and receptions. A semi-permanent welcome desk that reinforces your brand the moment visitors walk in.
Universities, colleges and open days. Information points for recruitment fairs, freshers’ events and open days.
Hospitality and venues. Ticket desks, merchandise points and bar fronts at hotels, attractions and indoor events.
A lightbox counter is simple to order, but a few decisions made upfront will get the best from your display.
1. Design for light, not just print
Backlit graphics behave differently from printed paper. Rich, saturated colours and strong contrast work best, while very pale backgrounds can look washed out once lit. Our design team checks every file and will advise before anything is printed.
2. Keep key messages in the top half
Visitors gathering at a counter often block the lower section with legs and bags. Place your logo and main message in the upper half of the graphic so they stay visible in a crowd.
3. Decide on single or double-sided early
If the counter could be seen from behind, a double-sided graphic stops a plain rear panel being on show. Think through your stand layout before you order.
4. Book your power supply
The counter needs a mains socket within reach. Many exhibition venues charge separately for power, so arrange it with the organiser well before the show.
5. Count your lead time from artwork approval
Production starts once you approve your artwork proof, not when you place your order. Allow time for at least one round of amends if you are working to an event date.
The graphic area is 1000mm x 1000mm per side. If you are supplying your own artwork, ask us for the template and we will send it over with guidance on bleed and safe areas. Prefer us to handle it? Our in-house design team will set up your artwork free of charge and send a proof for approval.
Every lightbox counter is supplied with a graphic printed to order, so your timescale starts when you approve your artwork proof. Choose the service that fits your deadline at checkout.
