Triangular Truss Cover

Triangular Truss Cover

A triangular Truss structure can carry spotlights, support an installation and remain perfectly stable. To play the leading roles in decoration, on the other hand, it sometimes deserves a little help. This cover for triangular Truss structure covers the aluminium tubes and assemblies to create a cleaner, more homogeneous silhouette and much less “work in progress”.

Made from stretchy lycra, it conforms to the shape of the structure without losing its function. The Truss remains there, solid and useful, but it finally blends into the scenography of a stage, a stand, a wedding or a reception. To cover other shapes and complete your installation, discover our collection of covers for Truss structures.

220 or 290 mm: the right triangle is a matter of measurement

The cover is available for triangular structures of 220 or 290 mm width, in several lengths ranging from 50 to 400 cm. To choose the right variant, measure the exterior section of the Truss as well as the height to be covered. A well-sized cover stays nicely taut; a cover chosen at random risks raising eyebrows, and no one wants to deal with a sulking textile on assembly day.

Lycra offers a certain flexibility, but it does not replace precise measurement. Also check your structure model when this information is available. For a particular configuration or a format that falls outside the proposed standards, it is better to seek advice before ordering rather than attempting a last minute negotiation with a few recalcitrant centimetres.

Tunnel or velcro, each has its own way of entering the scene

The version with tunnel opening is inserted from one end of the structure. It is ideal when the Truss is accessible during assembly. The textile slides around the column and is quickly put in place, a bit like a large sock, but with much more style and much less risk of disappearing in the washing machine.

If the structure is already assembled or difficult to disassemble, choose the Velcro opening along the entire length. It allows you to position the cover around the Truss and then close it in place. In both cases, the hems made at the ends provide a clean finish and help to obtain a regular covering over the entire height.

A light column that knows all the colours

Available in a wide range of colours, the cover can be discreet or become a strong element of your decor. Black attenuates the presence of the material on a stage, while white, pastel shades or brighter colours allow the structures to match the visual identity of the event. The triangle remains the same, but its mood completely changes.

With lighting placed inside or behind the structure, the cover also contributes to the diffusion of light and transforms the Truss into a decorative column. Light colours generally favour a more pronounced luminous effect. If you want to go even further and display a logo or visual, opt for a personalised triangular truss cover. Your structure will no longer just hold the light: it will also speak.

The finishing touch for event installations

This cover finds its place on stages, exhibition stands, trade shows, concerts, corporate evenings and private receptions. It hides the raw appearance of the aluminium, helps to hide traces of use and creates visual continuity between the different technical elements. To prepare a coherent covering, consult our guide devoted to Truss structures and event equipment.

Easy to remove and reuse, it easily supports successive installations. You just need to distribute it well over the entire height to balance the tension of the fabric. A few seconds of adjustment make all the difference: even if the darkness is forgiving, the photos of the event have a formidable memory.

A washable cover that does not require ironing

210 g/m² opaque premium lycra combines 90% polyester and 10% elastane. This composition gives it the extensibility necessary to fit the structure while maintaining good hold. The cover can be machine washed at up to 40°C and tumble dried at a moderate temperature.

No ironing is necessary: the fabric naturally regains a smooth appearance when installed and tensioned. Just be sure to store it completely dry and avoid excessively high temperatures. To prolong its flexibility and preserve its colours, find our care tips for stretch polyester covers.
