Stand type

Country Pavilion exhibition stands

We recommend a country pavilion when an export association, an organiser or a public body brings several companies together under one roof at the same fair. One side of the pavilion is shared: the reception counter, meeting area, catering corner and the national identity. The other side is individual: each exhibitor's own section with its own logo, products and meeting table. We work on plots above 100 square metres and go up to 2000.

How we produce it

First we settle the structure of the pavilion with the organiser: how many exhibitors, how many square metres each, where the shared area sits, which sides are open. Then we draw a single design language. The sections share the same height, surface and graphic layout, and each exhibitor sends only its own artwork.

The structure is chosen to the scale of the pavilion: a maxima system keeps the sections fast and orderly, while a custom timber build carries the national identity in the shared area, and we use the two together in the same pavilion. Production is in our own workshop in Beylikdüzü; graphic layout and print are ours, and each exhibitor's print file is submitted for approval separately.

A week before the fair the shared area and a sample section are assembled in the workshop. The build in the hall takes 4 to 10 days, and the crew grows with the pavilion. Exhibitors arrive to find their sections finished; the dismantle at closing is ours.

Where we have used it

Some of our jobs closest to pavilion scale: 182 square metres for Emintosun at LIGNA 2025 in Hanover, 153 square metres for GMS at bauma 2025 in Munich and 105 square metres for Cemer Kent Ekipmanları at FSB Cologne. We have built in Germany, Russia and the United States and installed in 10 countries; the international exhibition stand page explains how those jobs run.

What we pay attention to

  • Fairness: the aisle-facing faces of the sections get equal visibility, and an exhibitor far from the aisle gets a route through the shared area.
  • Height: the pavilion's shared tower and the section walls are drawn to the hall rule, and we send the technical file on the organiser's behalf.
  • Heavy products: for an exhibitor showing a machine, the plinth and floor protection go into the plan from the start.
  • Power: each section has its own sockets and lighting on a separate circuit, and the shared area is metered on its own.
  • Abroad: freight, the ATA Carnet and customs go in one file, and we prepare a separate list for the exhibitors' samples.

Country Pavilion: cities we have built in

We produce this type in the same workshop for fairs in Istanbul, Ankara, İzmir and the German venues and build it in the hall with our own crew; the cities we serve are listed on the locations page.

Stands we have built

We have not published a project under this heading yet; these three stands from other fairs show the work of our workshop.

Frequently asked

What floor areas do you build a Country Pavilion stand for?
We work in the 100-2000 m² range, and 0 published projects on this site are of this type. What decides the layout is not the area but how many sides are open and what you want to show on the walls; we use the same system on a small corner stand and on an island in the middle of the hall.
How long does a Country Pavilion stand take to build?
The build in the hall takes 4-10 days; the schedule of the hall matters as much as the size of the stand. Our own crew does the build, and we take the dismantle at closing too.
How does the process work for a Country Pavilion stand?
We start with the floor area, the open sides and the fair date, then draw the design. Once it is approved the stand is produced in the workshop and built in the hall to the fair calendar; at closing, our crew dismantles it.
Who prepares the graphics for the exhibiting companies?
We do. Each exhibitor sends its logo and images, we lay them out to the section dimensions and submit each one for approval separately; the print is ours as well. On a comfortable schedule the print files close 4 weeks before the fair.
Do the sections have to be equal?
No. Larger and smaller sections are drawn in the same design language according to the square metres the organiser assigns; only the area and the graphics differ.
How do freight and customs work for a pavilion abroad?
The whole pavilion leaves Beylikdüzü in a single shipment, and freight, the ATA Carnet and customs are run by us. At German fairs our Aachen office gives local support on the German side.
When should we start on a pavilion?
As soon as the exhibitor list and the square metre split are known. Our standard schedule is 8 weeks; because approval in a pavilion involves many parties, starting earlier makes life easier. Put the fair name, the total area and the number of exhibitors into the quote form and we reply within 48 hours.
