Exhibition stands

Design, production, installation and dismantling under one contract, run from Turkey and our German office in Europe.

01

Exhibition Stand Design

Your brand in three dimensions: floor plan, structure, surface and light in one concept. With photorealistic 3D visuals you see what you are getting before you sign.

  • The concept arrives with photorealistic 3D renders.
  • A written three-option budget comes the same day as the offer.
  • Hall approval drawings and structural calculations are ours.

02

Production and Installation

Production in our own workshop, our own crew on site. The stand is assembled and tested in the workshop, then handed over in the hall in 72 hours.

  • Pre-assembly and light testing happen in the workshop.
  • An architect is on site; decisions are made on the spot.
  • The stand is handed over one day before opening.

Freight, customs, in-hall handling and storage during the fair from one desk. We keep the plan of the truck bound for Cologne and the tracking of every crate that enters the hall.

  • Domestic and international freight plans are ours.
  • We run the ATA Carnet and customs management.
  • Every shipment is labelled and logged.

How we run an exhibition stand from start to finish

The five services can be taken separately, but most of our clients leave the whole job to us under one contract. In that case the order runs like this.

  1. 01

    Brief and measurements

    In the first conversation we take the fair name and dates, your floor area and the number of open sides; we download and read the hall regulations ourselves. The weight of your product, how many people the meeting area should seat and what goes into storage are settled here. A concept drawn without these changes twice later, so we spend the first half hour on it.

  2. 02

    Concept and 3D visuals

    Within two working days we send the first concept with three-dimensional visuals; this step is free of charge. The visuals show where visitors enter, where the product stands and where the meeting area sits. Approval is given on these visuals, and the stand built in the hall matches what you approved.

  3. 03

    Technical drawings and regulations

    After approval we produce the workshop drawings and prepare the documents the organiser requires: height permit, rigging request, fire class declaration and the electrical plan. We run this correspondence; from your side only the stand number and access to your exhibitor account are needed.

  4. 04

    Workshop production

    Custom timber stands are produced in our own workshop in Beylikdüzü; maxima and modular systems are cut to size and numbered here as well. When production is finished we assemble and photograph the stand in the workshop, and you are welcome to see it in person. We do not skip this trial build, because it is what prevents surprises in the hall.

  5. 05

    Freight and customs

    Domestically we bring the stand to the hall in a vehicle we schedule against the hall’s access hours. For fairs abroad we obtain the ATA Carnet and follow the customs process ourselves. At German fairs our Aachen office receives the freight on site.

  6. 06

    On-site build

    The crew that produced the stand builds it. Depending on the type it takes one to ten days: portable and modular stands go up in a day, custom timber in a few. We coordinate the power connection with the organiser’s electrician and hand over lighting and screens working before the opening.

  7. 07

    Support during the fair

    You have a named contact reachable throughout the fair. If a light fails or a graphic needs changing we act the same day; at Istanbul fairs the workshop is close to the halls, so a missing part arrives within hours.

  8. 08

    Dismantling and handover

    Dismantling is included in the quote. We enter the hall at the organiser’s slot, take the stand down and leave the space as we found it. During dismantling we separate your graphic panels and your own products and send them to your address.

What one contract means for you: when the same company designs, produces, ships and builds, the owner of any slipped step is clear and a delay in one step is solved before it reaches the next. During the fair week you are not calling three separate suppliers.

Six of the exhibition stands we delivered most recently. Each project states the fair, year, city and floor area; the photographs were taken in the hall, not rendered.

The most asked questions about exhibition stands

How much does an exhibition stand cost?

We do not quote a single per-square-metre price, because what separates two stands of the same size is not the area: the stand type (custom timber or maxima system), number of floors, open sides, enclosed volumes such as storage and kitchen, whether anything is rigged from the ceiling, graphic area and the city of the fair. Our quote lists these as separate lines, so you can see what the budget does when a line is removed. The first concept and the written budget frame are free.

What should an exhibition stand include?

Five things we solve on every stand: an open direction that actually lets visitors in, a display layout that holds the product at the right height, a seated meeting area, an enclosed volume for storage and catering, and an electrical and lighting plan. How much room each takes depends on your floor area and product; we draw all of them in the first concept.

What types of stands do you build?

We build six types: custom timber, maxima system, modular, portable, island and corner, double-decker — plus country pavilions. Which one fits depends on your area, how many fairs you attend and the build time of the hall; the stand types page puts the area range and build time of each side by side.

How long does delivery take?

Eight weeks before the fair for a custom timber stand and four weeks for a maxima system stand gives a comfortable schedule. For fairs abroad we add a week for freight and customs. We have worked on shorter notice; then we first say plainly what can still be done, and only then start.

Do you also build at fairs abroad?

Yes. We have built stands at fairs in Germany, Italy, France, Russia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and the United States. Freight, the ATA Carnet, customs and the on-site build are in one contract; our Aachen office supports in person on the German side.

We have our own design — can you build it?

Yes. We first read your drawing for buildability: we tell you in writing what needs to change in terms of the load-bearing structure, material thicknesses, fire class and the hall rigging rules. After that production, freight and the build are ours; the design stays yours and we are the party that builds it.

Can we see the stand before the fair?

During design we send three-dimensional visuals and, where useful, an eye-level walkthrough video; your approval is given on those. When production is finished we assemble and photograph the stand in the workshop, and you are welcome to see it in person at our Beylikdüzü workshop. What you see in the hall matches the visual you approved.

Who does the build — do you use subcontractors?

Our own crew does the build. The people who produce the stand are the same people who assemble it in the hall, so when a part is missing or wrong we fix it without waiting for anyone. For fairs abroad the crew travels from us; where local support is needed we say so in advance and write who does what into the contract.

Who dismantles the stand after the fair?

Dismantling is ours too and is included in the quote. We enter the hall at the dismantle slot given by the organiser, take the stand down and leave the space as we found it. We do not work in a way that leaves dismantling outside the quote, because that is where the fair week most often goes wrong.

Can we see examples of your work?

The projects page shows stands we delivered, photographed in the hall; each record lists the fair, city, floor area and stand type. To see work in your own field, start from the industry pages.

If you are not sure which service to start with, tell us your fair date; we will scope it together.
