9x6m 展示スタンドキット

Space-only stands at this scale normally require your design and structural drawings to be submitted for approval, together with a risk assessment and method statement covering the build. Deadlines fall well before the show opens and organisers do enforce them, so treat approval as part of the project rather than paperwork to finish at the end. Read the technical manual for the specific event, since requirements differ between organisers even at the same venue.

An overhead banner is the usual reason, and on a 54 square metre island it is often the difference between being found and being stumbled upon. Rigging must be booked through the venue's appointed contractor, and both the available points and the permitted load are set by the hall — Farnborough International and NEC Birmingham each publish their own limits. If rigging is not available above your plot or the cost is prohibitive, a ground-supported tower built into the stand gives height without touching the roof.

Count fixtures, do not estimate. List every light, screen, laptop and demonstration item with its wattage, total it, then order a supply with headroom rather than one sized exactly to that sum. Split lighting and AV across separate circuits so a tripped light does not kill a presentation mid-pitch, and confirm where the incoming supply lands so it is not on the opposite side of the stand from everything that uses it.

More than most exhibitors expect, and the sequence matters as much as the headcount. You need people setting out and levelling the floor plan, a group assembling and raising structure, and someone doing nothing but managing deliveries, cases and the organiser's schedule. Build times are dictated by the access window the organiser gives you, so agree the plan with your crew against that window rather than against a general assumption.

Height and zoning. A large open plan with a few counters scattered across it looks under-occupied, whereas defined areas — a welcome point, a product zone, meeting space, a demonstration area — make the same floor feel purposeful. Use vertical structure and overhead elements rather than filling the floor with furniture, since clutter at ground level blocks sightlines while height draws people from across the hall.

Fully enclosed rooms give genuine privacy and quiet, but a solid box facing an aisle makes the stand look shut. Semi-open rooms keep the stand feeling alive at the cost of confidentiality. A common compromise is to enclose the sides facing neighbouring stands and leave the aisle-facing side glazed or partially open. Whichever you choose, plan lighting and ventilation inside, because enclosed rooms in a busy hall get warm and dark faster than people expect.

Colour consistency between panels. Large graphics are printed in sections, and a solid brand colour produced at different times can show a visible shift where two panels meet, so ask for the full set to be printed in one run. Work at a reduced scale with a clearly stated scale factor rather than at full size, keep image resolution appropriate to the viewing distance, and allow bleed at every wrapped edge. Our team reviews files at no cost and will raise anything that will not hold up at this size.

Plan the logistics as carefully as the design. Book your unloading slot and vehicle marshalling with the organiser, confirm whether you need mechanical handling or whether the kit can be moved by hand on wheeled cases, and establish where empty cases go once the stand is up, as most halls remove them to storage and return them at breakdown. Allow for breakdown too — halls clear quickly, and the crew that built the stand is rarely the crew still there at the end.
