Flat Truss Cover
Flat Truss Cover
Solid, practical and always ready to carry spotlights, signs or decorative elements, the flat Truss structure does not lack qualities. In terms of elegance, let’s admit that it sometimes lets its aluminium tubes speak a little too much. This cover for flat Truss aluminium structure covers them to give your installation a cleaner, more homogeneous silhouette and significantly less “technical assembly in progress”.
Thanks to its stretchy lycra, the textile hugs the structure and integrates it naturally into the scenography. On a stage, a stand, at a wedding or a professional reception, the Truss continues to do its job without stealing the spotlight from the decor. To cover the other elements of your installation, discover our entire collection of covers for Truss structures.
220, 290 or 400 mm: let’s get the dimensions straight
This cover is suitable for flat Truss structures of 220, 290 or 400 mm width. It is available in several lengths, from 50 to 400 cm depending on the variant selected. You can thus cover both a compact element and a large vertical structure, without requiring the fabric to perform miracles of acrobatics.
Before ordering, precisely measure the exterior width of the Truss and the length to be covered. Lycra is stretchy, of course, but it still appreciates that its limits are respected. A well-chosen dimension promotes regular tension and a neat result, while a selection made haphazardly can give you a cold sweat during assembly.
Tunnel or velcro: two paths to successful installation
The simple tunnel version is threaded from one end of the structure. It is ideal when the Truss remains accessible during installation. Simply distribute the textile gradually over the entire length to obtain an even covering. Imagine a large sock for a stage structure, but with more colours and much less risk of losing your twin.
When the Truss is already assembled or difficult to disassemble, the Velcro opening along the entire length facilitates installation directly around the structure. You can therefore install the cover without reviewing your entire assembly plan. To also cover certain junctions, complete your installation with a cover for corner of Truss in Y.
A technical structure that finally knows how to hold its own in the evening
Depending on the colour chosen, the cover can make the structure more discreet or give it a real decorative role. Black helps it blend into a stage environment, while a light, pastel or bright shade allows it to match a theme, a visual identity or the colours of a brand. Even flat, the Truss can therefore have relief.
Associated with suitable lighting, the cover can also help create a light column or an atmospheric background. It then becomes an integral element of the staging, particularly interesting for trade shows, receptions and corporate events. Find other ideas in our guide dedicated to dressing Truss structures.
An ally of montages that follow one another
Made of 90% polyester and 10% elastane, the cover combines flexibility and hold. The hems made at each end ensure a clean finish, while the elasticity of the textile simplifies installation and removal. She can thus accompany several events without requiring a red carpet or a private box between two performances.
The cover is machine washable up to 40°C and does not require ironing. Once clean and completely dry, it can be folded and stored until its next outing. To preserve its elasticity and colours, consult our care advice for stretch polyester covers.
Technical characteristics of the flat Truss cover
To select the right variant, check three elements: the width of your structure, the length to be covered and its accessibility at the time of installation. These few measures will allow you to choose calmly between the tunnel opening and the Velcro closure.
