From start to Finish:

Ever wandered around a show and thought - how on earth do they build that!? They say you've got to break a few eggs to make an omelette, and exhibition stands are no different. There's plenty of (organised) mess to be made before the polished final product can emerge. Here's an exclusive look behind the scenes building Greensea IQ at Oceanology International...

Stage 1: Laying the Platform

The foundation of the stand - this enables us to run electrical cables under the floor, which keeps the stand looking tidy and prevents dangerous trip hazards. ⚠

Stage 2: Laying the floor covering

This project involved the use of cutting templates to create the Greensea logo from several different colour-matched carpet and vinyl options. It's then covered in a thin protective film for the rest of the build-up.

Stage 3: Erecting the back walls

Structurally sound and generally composed of reusable stock panels, they form the backbone of every stand build!

Stage 4: Building the overhead structure

Our operatives are well-trained in safe working at height practices, as per the industry guidelines - they've done a great job here!

Stage 5: Front support beams

As soon as these are installed we can remove the temporary supports from the overhead beams - it's all coming together nicely.

Stage 6: Electrical switch-on ⚡

Time to light 'em up and check everything works as it should - we don't want any electrical gremlins cropping up for the exhibitor during the show.

Stage 7: Decoration, clean-up & product placement

The fun bit... where we complete any decorative touch-ups, apply final graphics, sweep up all the dust and, finally, pull away the protective covering to reveal that amazing floor. Then we can let the exhibitor loose with their product samples and demo units, ready for show open!

Stage 8: Stand Complete!

The finished product.
