Helser Brothers Inc. has announced it will present a new product — the Vervo Motorized Traverse French Pole — at the Custom Workroom Conference (CWC) 2025.
The Vervo Motorized Traverse French Pole is engineered to combine the ornamental appeal of a classic French return rod, which is known for its curved ends, with integrated automated operation. Helser Brothers Inc. constructed this product from a single continuous piece, which is intended to avoid visible joints and permit customization of the curved section. The integrated motor is positioned behind the rod structure. This placement allows for a more compact installation and maintains the traditional visual profile. The product is also designed to simplify the fabrication process for custom drapery workrooms by aligning the functional width of the rod with the fabric measurement. Components are machined from solid aluminum to ensure they can be finished to match the rod precisely.
