Exhibition stand builder at Deutsche Messe Hannover
Hannover, Germany
Hannover is among the largest exhibition grounds in the world, with roughly 392,000 m² across more than twenty halls and pavilions. Two of its fairs sit exactly where our client base already is: LIGNA for woodworking and DOMOTEX for carpet and floor coverings.

LIGNA and DOMOTEX are our clients' fairs
We build for furniture manufacturers, timber and panel suppliers, and carpet and flooring companies — at İstanbul Furniture Fair, Intermob and ICFE. LIGNA and DOMOTEX are the European fairs those same companies grow into, which makes Hannover the most natural European step for a large part of what we do.
The advantage of having built the Istanbul stand is not sentimental. We already know the range, the display heights that work for those products and the storage the client actually needs, so the Hannover brief starts from a solved problem rather than a blank sheet.
Getting a stand from Istanbul to Hannover
The stand is designed and produced in our own workshop in Istanbul, trial-assembled there, then crated and freighted. What crosses the border is a finished stand rather than a team with tools, which is the whole economic argument: you buy Turkish production and pay freight instead of buying local production at local rates.
Freight, customs clearance and the return leg are priced together with the stand, not added afterwards. For an EU fair the clearance route is settled before production starts, because it fixes the shipping date and the shipping date fixes the production deadline.
- Design, 3D visual and production in Istanbul
- Freight and customs planned as part of the quote
- Installation on site by our own crew, inside the official build-up window
- Dismantling, return transport and storage for the next edition
What the hall regulations actually require
German venues publish binding technical guidelines, and the point most foreign exhibitors get wrong is not that outside contractors are banned — they are not — but that some work is reserved. The connection from the stand to the hall's power network is made exclusively by the venue's own authorised electrical company, and the stand's internal wiring has to comply with VDE/DIN standards before it is energised.
None of that prevents us from building. It simply has to be ordered, scheduled and drawn in advance, which is why we read the current technical guidelines for your hall before the design is frozen rather than after the panels are cut.
- Hall power connection: venue's authorised electrical company only
- Stand wiring: VDE/DIN compliant, inspected before energising
- Multi-storey stands and heavy suspensions: approval required
- Stand approval file (height, load, structure) prepared by us
Tell us your hall and your plot
The fair, the hall, the plot size and how many sides are open. That is enough for a design proposal and a real price.
