Exhibition stand builder at Messe Berlin
Berlin, Germany
Berlin is where sectors meet their public as well as their trade: ITB for travel, Grüne Woche and FRUIT LOGISTICA for food, InnoTrans for rail. Its technical guidelines are unusually specific, and they are worth reading before you design rather than after.

Berlin's rules that change a design
Messe Berlin's technical guidelines set a maximum construction height of 6 metres including suspended elements, and require a floor covering plus stable partition walls of at least 2.50 metres towards neighbouring stands. Multi-storey stands, outdoor structures, tents, containers and LED walls are subject to approval. Water and compressed air connections may only be installed by the venue's contracted service companies — exhibitors may not connect to the mains themselves.
Those are not obstacles; they are dimensions. A 6-metre ceiling changes what a double-height element can be, and a mandatory 2.50-metre partition changes how much of your neighbour you can see past. We design against the current edition of the guidelines for your specific fair, because they are revised annually.
- Maximum height 6 m including suspended elements
- Partition walls to neighbouring stands: minimum 2.50 m
- Floor covering required
- Multi-storey, tents, containers and LED walls: approval required
- Water and compressed air: contracted service companies only
Getting a stand from Istanbul to Berlin
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.
