How is an exhibition stand built?

All of our stands are built by our experienced, highly-trained team of exhibition stand builders.

The expandable aluminium hardware is erected and fixed in place with strengthened magnetic rods. The individual modules are connected in a near-endless variety of shapes and sizes, to fit any stand space.

After the frame is up, bespoke features and lighting connections are securely attached to the frame. High-level branding, rotating headers, backlighting and showcases are all securely and seamlessly integrated into the framework.

In the final stage, high-quality graphics panels are attached to the magnetic rods and intricately positioned to ensure graphics flow seamlessly across all panels. Our all-graphic solution means the graphics wrap around the entire structure and ensure the hardware is hidden from sight.

Safe Installation

We value the safety of our employees and fully align our business practices with these values. All of the materials that make up our stands come fully manufactured, so the on-site build is entirely clean and safe.

In recent years we’ve seen multiple campaigns aim to make exhibition stand construction safer for contractors.

Stop the Drop Campaign – Stop the Drop is an awareness campaign aimed at promoting contractor safety when working at height.

All of our installers are extensively trained in stand installation and this includes comprehensive training on the safe use of ladders both within our facility and when onsite at events.

In addition to training, we ensure that all of our installers are supplied with the correct type of ladder and that ladders are regularly serviced and checked for damage or excessive wear and tear.

Work Right “Dust Kills” Campaign – The Work Right “Dust Kills” campaign brings awareness to the serious health complications that can, and have, arisen as a result of long-term exposure to construction dust.

Construction dust has been linked to lung disease and many other chronic long-term lung conditions, so reducing workers’ exposure to dust is vital.

The construction of our stands requires no power tools, paints or hazardous materials and produces no dust or waste. This clean construction process is much safer for our installation team, as well as customers wanting to self-build their own stand.

Experienced exhibition stand builders

Unlike most exhibition stand builders, we don’t outsource building. Our installers work alongside our designers, project managers and exhibition stand manufacturers in our Poole studio and factory.

From day one, your main point of contact, is one of our experienced project managers. This person handles any on-going design development, show administration, construction, stand manufacture, graphics production and installation.

We pre-build your exhibit, days or weeks before the show-build, enabling is to check quality, fitting and appearance.

    Dear Mrs Carvell,

    Thanks a lot for your email. I would like to thank you for all the job, which you have done. The stand was good (corrected – some parts were problematic last time).

    We have no problem and issue at all. Your colleague was waiting for us before we came.

    Thanks a lot once more.

    Hi Violet

    We had a great show, and the stand was a huge success. I had clients messaging me who saw it on LinkedIn to say how good it looked, so a big thank you to everyone there!

  • Lifecycle Oils Limited at Hotel, Restaurant & Catering (HRC) 2023

    Hello all – I just wanted to say a massive thanks to you and your colleagues at Quadrant for making our recent exhibition so effortless.

    From the moment I picked up the phone to you through to signing off the stand, it has been a faultless experience, even though we gave you such little time to turn it around.

    The stand absolutely popped, and we received many positive comments on the look and feel.

    The service provided to us was professional and engaging and your handholding throughout the process extremely reassuring – I cannot recommend you highly enough.

    Please feel free to use this as a testimonial – great service deserves to be endorsed.

    Thanks again
