One stand, all your shows: a bespoke black and white base that rebuilds, grows and shrinks from one edition to the next, without ever losing an ounce of your identity.
Reordering a single-use structure show after show means paying again for design, build and materials every time, for a result that ends up in the skip.
From one hired kit to the next, your colours, your volumes and your finishes vary. Your clients never recognise your brand from one show to another.
A fixed stand will not fit a 9 m² corner and a 100 m² island alike. You are either stuck or starting again from scratch.

Modular stand or hire kit: what are the differences?
| Modular stand | Hire kit | |
|---|---|---|
| Design | A base engineered for your brand | Standard modules from the hire fleet |
| Materials | Bespoke aluminium framework, workshop finishes | Generic profiles and panels |
| Personalisation | Volumes, materials and guidelines in your image | Imposed grid, interchangeable visuals |
| Reconfiguration | From 9 m² to a full island with the same framework | Limited to the hire company's catalogue |
| Impact | A consistent identity from one show to the next | A look that changes with every hire |
Illustrative comparison. A kit is paid for again at every show; a modular base pays itself off.
The same modular frame recomposes to the space you book. Here are three real configurations, from compact to large-format.
Small shows and tight footprints
The best impact-to-budget ratio
For flagship trade shows
Indicative budgets, excluding floor space rental. Every configuration is adapted to your brand and sector.
Design and tooling are paid for once: from the third edition, only transport, storage and graphics remain to be funded.
9 m² here, 36 m² there: the same base stretches or tightens to fit the pitch you are allocated, without starting from scratch.
Volumes, materials and the black and white signature stay identical: your clients know you at first glance from one edition to the next.
Fascias and graphics swap out without touching the framework: you refresh your offer, not your stand.
Goal, experience, timeline, surface: four answers and we point you to the right stand format. No personal data required.
The initial investment in a modular stand exceeds that of a kit, but it divides by the number of reuses. Allow €600 to €1,000 per m² for a premium bespoke modular build, against €900 to €1,600/m² for a single-use stand. Before weighing purchase against exhibition stand rental, always compare the cost per show.
| Cost item | What it covers | Share of budget |
|---|---|---|
| Base design | Study of the target floor areas, design of the adaptable framework, 3D drawings of each configuration | 12 to 16% |
| Framework & panels | Bespoke aluminium structure, partitions and façades calibrated for repeated rebuilds | 30 to 40% |
| Repositionable furniture | Counters, storerooms and fit-out elements that move from one configuration to the next | 12 to 18% |
| Interchangeable graphics | Fascias, fabrics and dressings replaced without rebuilding | 8 to 12% |
| Build & transport | Delivery, on-site rebuild, removal when the show closes | 14 to 18% |
| Storage & maintenance | Keeping the stand between editions, checking and refurbishing components | On quotation |
Indicative figures, which vary with the number of configurations and planned reuses. The quote details every line before launch.
Everything is decided at the design stage: a well-conceived base withstands years of shows.
We survey the floor areas and layouts across your calendar to size the shared base.
Every target configuration is modelled: you see your stand at 9, 18 and 36 m² before fabrication.
The partner workshop produces a framework and panels engineered to withstand repeated builds and transport.
Installation at your first show, with every configuration precisely documented for the ones that follow.
Between editions, we store, check and prepare the stand for its next outing.

An industrial stand for a major engineering player, combining visual strength and a welcoming feel for business meetings.
A space that reinforced the client's expert image and enabled quality business conversations.
An immaculate stand for Sofwave, the aesthetic ultrasound specialist, at an international aesthetic medicine congress.
A clear, soothing presence that put the device in the spotlight and eased demonstrations throughout the congress.
A stand designed like a contemporary wine cellar for A. Brumont, an emblematic winegrower from South West France, at a major international wine fair.
An elegant setting that asserted the standing of both estates and sustained a steady flow of professionals around the tasting bar.
One base, several deployments. The logic serves first and foremost your recurring trade show booth, but it applies just as well to an event booth touring from congress to congress.
The entry configuration: fascia, counter and compact storeroom, rebuilt in half a day.
The base stretches: demonstration space, meeting corner and a full brand wall.
Maximum deployment, open onto four aisles, for your strategic shows of the year.
At the biggest editions, the base takes an extra level: meetings upstairs, demonstrations below.
Double-decker version →
Ten to twenty shows with normal upkeep. We check the structure between editions and replace worn parts; the graphics can be swapped whenever you want.
Usually from the third show. The initial investment is 20 to 30% higher than a disposable build, but the cost per edition then comes down to transport, assembly and storage.
Yes, that is the point: the same modules recompose from a 12 sqm corner to a 36 sqm island. We provide layout plans for every configuration you anticipate.
Not when the modules are made to measure. We use the same joinery and finishes as our bespoke stands; only the structure is engineered to be taken apart and rebuilt.
We do, in our warehouse, with a photo inventory and a check before every reshipment. No pallets to manage, no unit to rent.
Half a day to a day depending on the size, against two to three days for a full build. That is also what brings the labour cost down at every edition.
