Take the WARP Factory Tour
Warp Exhibits manufactures breathtaking tension fabric structures and displays. Produced to your specifications, your imaginative designs brought to life!
So……how do we do it?
Let’s follow your project through the shop, one department at a time.
Estimating & Sales
Your projects start in the sales and estimating department. We will discuss your clients’ needs and the specifics of your project. Here is where you will provide us with your spec drawings, timeframe and all pertinent details. We’ll happily provide a worksheet to ensure no detail slips through the cracks. After review, we’ll send a timely and complete estimate outlining all details discussed.
Upon your approval, the ball starts rolling!
Graphic Center
When the estimate is accepted, your project will be immediately placed onto the production schedule based upon the agreed timeline for delivery. You will be provided with a secure website username and password to log into your portal, locate your art mask and manage your art file transfers with specific instructions to ensure perfect outcome. An art rendering and an internal structural drawing will be provided for your approval. You can also use the portal to follow your job through production, quality control and shipping to its final destination.
Once you GREEN LIGHT the artwork, production begins!
PRODUCTION
Movement and shape take form in each production shop..
Metal Shop
Our talented machine shop custom builds every aluminum structure that mounts your printed tension fabric. Our expert welders use aircraft grade aluminum because it’s lightweight and extremely durable. Every piece includes snap tube connectors so the creation can be easily assembled and disassembled without tools. Shock cords are added to minimize the sorting of parts. Every piece of our frames are made here in our plant. NO PARTS are imported. Completely made in America.
Print Shop
The fabric components will be printed on our leading-edge dye sublimation printers. Our expertise in digital prepress paired with the industry’s best equipment allow you to GO BIG! The dye sublimation printing process allows for vivid color, durable, lightweight, versatile solutions to bring your concepts to life! Multiple lighting options and special effects can be added to your project. Choose from largest variety of substrates available to match any mood or capture a feeling in the environment you are creating. Our prints do not smear, fade or bleed. Panels can be printed up to 10-feet wide and unlimited length. Greater heights can be achieved by seaming panels together.
Sewing Shop
All prints are cut and sewn in this department with nearly invisible seams. Our sewing experts have been with Warp for decades. They can pattern, cut and sew the printed panels into any shape imaginable to fit precisely. Each fabric cover is finished with zippers, hems, grommets, Velcro or silicone edges as specified.
Illustration Shop
The aluminum frames and sewn printed panels reunite and are paired with the customized, easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions. Every part and panel is labeled for easy identification. The instructions are primarily illustrated, allowing workers of any fluency to assemble your display quickly and easily.
Quality Control
The quality control team ensures every part is accounted for. Each project must meet rigid standards to pass inspection. They account for color, craftsmanship and overall quality. The assembly must be in accordance to the provided instructions. Photos of your assembled product are added to your portal for review alongside the assembly and maintenance instructions and fire certifications.
Shipping
Your project is packed in reusable canvas bags with printed fire certifications, maintenance and assembly instructions. The bags are padded, boxed and shipped. Your tracking numbers and electronic versions of all documents are immediately added to your portal for review.
