What an exhibition stand builder does
A stand builder (also called a stand contractor, or an exhibit house in the US) turns your floor space into a finished stand. Most take a project from brief to breakdown: concept and 3D design, stand plans for the organiser, production in their own workshop, transport, building the stand at the venue, and dismantling and storing it after the show. Many also supply the graphics, lighting, AV, flooring and furniture, so you deal with one company.
How to choose a stand builder
- Look at stands the builder has delivered at your show or venue, at a similar size.
- Check where it builds: a workshop near the venue cuts transport and makes last-minute fixes easier.
- Ask who will be on site during build-up and breakdown, and whether that crew is the builder's own or subcontracted.
- Check that the builder can produce the stand plans, risk assessments and method statements the organiser asks for, and that it carries liability insurance.
- Ask what happens to the stand after the show: storage, reuse or recycling.
- Compare quotes on the same brief, and check what is included (graphics, flooring, electrics, furniture, AV, transport, storage).
