Custom Built Exhibition Stands

The Show is open and your delegates have arrived...

Delivering unique, show-stopping 'custom built exhibition stands' can often seem a daunting task, particularly as our experience tells us managing your exhibition project is just one aspect (albeit an important and highly visible aspect) of your overall job responsibilities. No pressure then!

Whatever you plan for, the reality usually brings some surprises along the way and that's where you usually find the difference between an average exhibition stand contractor and a company you might describe as an innovative, hardworking, trustworthy and reliable part of your exhibition team - now there's some attributes worth getting your hands on when all eyes are on you!

Our information and advice is always friendly, objective, jargon-free and without obligation, so don't hesitate to call us on 0800 089 9898 with your questions on exhibition stand design, stand re-use, logistics, budget costs, or indeed anything that helps to move your bespoke exhibition project forward. If you'd prefer to contact us by email then ask us some questions on custom built exhibition stands and we'll reply promptly.

Bespoke Exhibition Stands

Everything or just some of the things you need - you choose

Without running into too much management speak and hyperbole we need to explain that The Image Group is big enough to successfully manage most exhibition projects, but at the same time provides serious commitment to your objectives and the personal attention you should expect from a happy and focused medium sized business. This is our promise.

We're now 10 years old and have a forty-odd-strong team under one roof in Manchester with the experience, skills and motivation to design, build, print, dress, transport and install custom built exhibition stands throughout the UK's major exhibition centres in London, Birmingham, Harrogate and beyond.

Our unique in-house capabilities of stand design, exhibition build and large format printing means we can make things happen when they need to and save you the potential difficulties of managing multiple suppliers.

Additionally, our true 'manufacturing status' provides you with competitive solutions on 'turnkey projects' or fast turn-around on 'print only' assignments.

From one-off exhibition graphics to a long-term partnership we're ready to assist you now.

Custom Built Exhibition Stands - step by step

Whilst no-two exhibition projects are ever the same, here's a quick look at how we can work with you to guide you through the process and deliver a successful result.

Information & advice without obligation

To get started you might need some budget costs for your ideas. Perhaps you have some technical questions or need some advice with stand design. No problem, simply contact our experienced team on 0800 389 9898 who will be pleased to help with your enquiry. A visit to our exhibition showroom is a great way to combine fact-finding and creative planning opportunities away from your desk - we're easy to get to close to The Trafford Centre just off Junction 11, M60 Manchester. Let's put a date in the diary - we'd be very pleased to welcome you.

Consultation & Brief Development

Focusing on the objectives and desired outcomes for your bespoke exhibition stand we can work with you to develop your brief into a tangible and detailed project plan. We can then arrive at your approved budget and in turn make our final proposals on how we can best achieve your requirements.

Exhibition Stand Design

Our 3D CAD visuals and graphical rendering techniques enable you to see how your stand will work and to make any final adjustments before production starts. As part of our service we also provide detailed technical drawings prior to manufacture.

In-house Bespoke Exhibition Stand Production

With 32,000 square feet of manufacturing and storage space we can provide for all types and sizes of exhibitions with equal confidence. As well as a team of over 40 professionals, we have also invested in state of the art equipment over recent years including digital flat bed printing, print finishing and CAD joinery equipment.

Exhibition Installation

Our knowledge of exhibition installation is key to our continued success. Our in-house fitting team is internationally experienced and has completed exhibition projects in Berlin, Paris, Frankfurt, Barcelona, Cologne, Chicago and Florida. Here in the UK we're regular visitors to GMEX (Manchester Central), NEC Birmingham, Earls Court, Excel, Olympia and BDC London.

Stand Breakdown & Storage

When the last visitor has gone, we'll carefully dismantle your exhibition stand and if required safely store it for a future event at our secure 24 hour facility.

Customer Testimonials

The last word should go to some people, perhaps like you, who at one time asked us for help and advice about an exhibition stand project they we're planning. We're pleased to say they're now happy Image Group customers and we hope you can join them soon.
