If you're exhibiting at a show that uses a traditional shell scheme, you've probably been pointed toward the official graphics supplier. Their prices are high, their graphics are typically single-use, and there's rarely a conversation about what you actually need.
There's a better way.
We don't just print your files. We design your graphics from scratch, or work with your existing brand assets to create something that looks the part on the show floor.
High-quality, colour-accurate print that holds up under exhibition hall lighting and close scrutiny.
Our graphics are made to last. Use them across 5 or more shows — and every time you do, the cost per show drops.
Comfortable putting them up yourself? We'll show you how. Prefer someone else to handle it? We offer professional installation at The NEC and selected venues.

Shell scheme graphics are a smart, cost-effective upgrade - but if you're exhibiting regularly, there comes a point where a bespoke modular stand starts to make more sense.
A modular stand build gives you:
It sounds like a big leap. In practice, for companies exhibiting three or more times a year, a modular build typically pays for itself within two events.
Our modular builds start from £3,500 and are designed and built around your specific brief. There are a lot of variables — size, configuration, graphics, lighting, storage — so we price each one individually.
If you're curious whether it makes sense for where you are now, just ask. No hard sell - we'll give you an honest steer.
