Our process

From the initial consultation to the finished stand.

1
Consultation & Briefing

You describe your plans, objectives and budget – we listen, ask questions and suggest initial directions. By phone, video call or in person in Cologne.

Concept & 3D Visualisation

We develop a tailor-made stand concept including layout, materials and branding. You can view your stand in advance as a realistic 3D model from all angles.

3
Quotation & Fine-tuning

You receive a transparent fixed-price quotation. Requests for changes are incorporated directly – with no hidden costs or surprises later on.

Production in our own workshop

Stand construction, printing and all fittings are manufactured in Cologne. Short lead times, full quality control and maximum reliability – even with last-minute adjustments.

5
Setting up at the trade fair

Our team handles delivery, stand assembly and all technical coordination with the trade fair. You arrive at the finished stand – ready to go for the trade fair opening.

About HANNOVER MESSE 2027

HANNOVER MESSE 2027 will take place from 5 to 8 April 2027 at the Hannover Exhibition Grounds.

The focus is on Automation & Smart Manufacturing, Industrial Engineering & Supply, Motion & Drives, Compressed Air & Vacuum Technology, Digital Solutions, Industrial Energy, Research & Innovation as well as accompanying formats such as Europe Energy Week. Key future topics include industrial AI, robotics, Industry 4.0, Manufacturing-X, carbon-neutral production, energy infrastructure, hydrogen, sensors, drive technology and technology transfer.

For exhibitors, this means that the stand must make technical expertise easy to understand, present machines and processes clearly and enable high-value conversations with international decision-makers. Clear product guidance, robust exhibit areas, demo opportunities, quiet consultation zones and a stand concept that visibly connects innovation, efficiency, sustainability and industrial relevance are particularly important.

Sustainability

Exhibition stand construction that lives on after the event

Our clickwand system was developed in 2007 as a sustainable alternative to the throwaway culture in exhibition stand construction. The modular elements can be reused as often as required; they are stored after each use and can be flexibly re-deployed. With a lifespan of over 10 years, they combine sustainability, efficiency and long-term cost-effectiveness.

  • Re-use of walls, counters, lighting elements and decorations
  • Storage of your stand elements with us – ready to go for the next trade fair
  • Bundled machine and exhibit logistics, modular stand planning and early build-up coordination reduce transport effort and make on-site adjustments easier during build-up, the fair and dismantling
