Portuguese term or phrase: frente de mesa

This is a term in a list of certain things an advertising and/or events agency has designed for its clients.

The particular entry is "Tela, frente da mesa e crachá"

Apart from billboards and emblems other items include posters, banners, invitations, pamphlets etc.

I can only think "frente da mesa" is particular jargon or has a specific meaning in the ad./graphic design trade.

Can anyone assist?

Many thanks in anticipation
Debbie
