Woodridge, IL-headquartered promo products supplier Orbus Exhibit & Display Group (asi/75209) has acquired Elgin, IL-based Fabric Images, a company that specializes in custom fabric architectural solutions for exhibits, events, hospitality, retail and commercial interiors. Financial terms of the deal were not released.

Orbus is a group of brands that manufactures and supplies portable, modular, sign and fabric structure displays used in exhibits, events and interiors. Natalie Whited, Orbus’ vice president of marketing, said Fabric Images is a perfect complement to the firm’s core business and that the acquisition will make both entities stronger.

“The addition of Fabric Images to the Orbus Exhibit & Display Group family of brands elevates our design and print capabilities in building materials, printed textiles and fabric,” said Giles Douglas (pictured), Orbus’ president and CEO.

Fabric Images CEO Marco Alvarez will become part of the executive team at Orbus. Going forward, he’ll teach and lead the engineering, design and consultative approach to custom fabric architecture with a larger combined team.

“Becoming part of Orbus provides our customers with expanded resources and capabilities across North America, adding a Las Vegas and Canadian facility in addition to a vastly larger Illinois facility,” said Alvarez.

Other brands within the Orbus Group include The Exhibitors’ Handbook, The Promo Handbook, Nimlok and SignPro Systems.
