How it works
- 01
Confirm the design
Use your own approved design or ask the builder to design and build.
- 02
Check venue rules
Height limits, rigging, fire-safety materials and build-up times come from the organiser’s exhibitor manual.
- 03
Fabricate and pre-build
Many builders pre-assemble in the workshop to reduce risk on site.
- 04
Install and hand over
The stand is built in the hall and handed over ready for your team before opening.

Frequently asked questions
Should my builder be local to the exhibition city?
A builder based in or regularly working in the exhibition city usually knows the venue’s procedures, contractors and logistics, which reduces risk and cost.
What is the difference between custom and modular construction?
Custom stands are built from scratch for one design; modular stands use reusable frame systems. Many stands combine both.
Who handles dismantling?
The builder that constructs the stand normally dismantles it and clears the space within the organiser’s breakdown window.
