Will 2023 be your break-out year? Having a successful partner in the events industry can maximize your effectiveness at exhibitions. But how much does a display stand cost and what are your options? Whether you are attending events in Cape Town, Johannesburg or Durban, GL events and our expert team has you covered.
Types of exhibition stands and their costs
GL events has a wide range of versatile trade show and expo stand options available at varying costs, depending on your budget and goals for the specific exhibition. They can be used either as one-off showpieces or designed with modular elements, which will extend their use at various other events, making it an attractive, cost-effective option.
Basic Shell Scheme stands
The entry-level shell scheme package is the most cost-effective solution and often chosen as a base to build from. It is ideal for trade shows, consumer exhibitions, product launches and info stands.
Although the Basic Shell Scheme stand includes carpets, electrical services and the stand name, this expo stand lends itself perfectly to upgrading and enhancing the available space, by being able to add furniture, graphics, a wide range of décor options as well as large areas of branded fabric.
System Design stands
Also a more cost-effective exhibition stand option, the System Design stand can be used as an upgrade to a basic shell scheme by adding design elements. This stand option would work well for high brand visibility at activations, exhibitions and conferences.
We take the client’s brief into account during the design phase, which could include eye-catching bulkheads, plants, special lighting and graphics – from vinyl to fabric application.
Maxima stands
If you’d like to make a bigger impression at a trade show, seminar or meeting area and have the budget for it, opt for a Maxima stand. Different profiles are used to add a more upmarket finish to your display. Our Project Managers are on call to give you advice on the best finishes to suit your brand.
Eco-mod display stands
Unique and refreshing, our Eco-mod exhibition stand products offer multiple benefits by being completely re-useable with re-brandable elements. These stands are ecological, made from recyclable material and flat packed. Their versatility also outweighs a higher cost, as you can easily store and reuse them to make a striking impact at events, exhibitions and trade shows.
Custom stands
A custom stand offers elegant, cutting-edge design with high-end finishes. The sky’s the limit when it comes to design, shape and size – from small 3m x 3m stands to large double-storey structures.
GL events’ professional consultants can bring your brand vision to life, sharing fresh ideas on how to design the perfect display stand for exhibitions, product launches, retail displays and mall activations. This process includes conceptualisation and design, manufacturing and installation.
