Backgrounds & Backgrounds Support Systems
Our extremely modular background support system is
reliable, simple to use and exible enough to match most
of your support needs for paper, drapable, hand-painted or
canvas backgrounds, in the studio or on location. For core
mounted backgrounds the system used is based on the Expan
chain operated drive developed by Manfrotto.
The Expan can be mounted on dedicated hooks which vary in
shape and design depending on the number of backgrounds
to be used.
If, as usually happens with canvas backgrounds, there is no
central core around which to wrap the background material,
Manfrotto provides a three section telescopic pole that can
be attached on top of a set of two stands, making it ideal for
location assignments.
