Working on project from Vray user what are the blank panes?

I am working on a SU project where the project creator used V-ray. I have mannequins in a retail display with hanging graphics. In front of the mannequins and graphics there is a blank white rectangle surface created in front of them, curious to know what was this for?

thanks
