Beyond the Build
Graphics & Print
Large-format print, in-house, colour-managed, deadline-safe.
In-house large-format exhibition print - direct-to-substrate, tension fabric, vinyl and dibond - colour-managed, PMS-matched, quality-checked and delivered to the show with the rest of your build.
We produce graphics in-house because colour, deadline and finish quality are too important to sub-contract. Every panel is colour-proofed before it's printed and quality-checked before it leaves us.
Graphics are where a lot of exhibition stands lose their edge. Colour drifts because the panel came from a different printer to the artwork proof. Finish looks flat because the wrong substrate was substituted at the last minute. A panel arrives on-site with a scuff and there's no spare.
Our own print room prints every panel for every stand we build. That means one ICC profile, one colour proof, one quality standard, and one team accountable for the finish. We PMS-match on request, proof against your brand ink deck, and hold spare stock of every panel we print until the show closes.
We handle direct-to-substrate print (up to 3.2m wide), tension fabric, backlit, vinyl and dibond - all under one roof, all on the same delivery schedule as the rest of the build.

FAQs
Frequently asked.
Everything exhibitors ask us before signing off a stand, costs, lead times, reuse, overseas shows and the sustainability question.
What's your latest artwork deadline?
Typically 5 working days before show open - but talk to us if you're up against it. We've printed on much tighter deadlines when the physics allows.
Do you PMS-match?
Yes - we proof against your brand ink deck on the final substrate, not a paper proof.
Can you print to unusual substrates?
Within reason - talk to us about the effect you're after and we'll advise on the substrate that gets it.
How much does an exhibition stand cost in the UK?
For UK shows, most custom stands land between £8,000 for a compact 9m² modular scheme and £120,000+ for a bespoke 100m² double-decker build. Cost is driven by floor area, structural complexity, AV integration, storage/reuse strategy and freight - we'll give you a fixed quote against your brief before any design work starts.
How far in advance should we book our exhibition stand designer?
Ideally 4–6 months before your show for a custom build, or 8–12 weeks for a modular/reconfigured stand. Booking earlier locks in better freight rates, reduces rush-fees on print and lets us prototype interactive elements. We do take on shorter turnarounds when capacity allows.
Do you handle stand build, install and dismantle as well as design?
Yes - SRXPO is a design, deliver and build studio. One project manager owns your brief from concept through CAD, structural sign-off, print, on-site install, show-time support and dismantle. You don't hand off between a designer, a contractor and a logistics company.
Can you build stands that we reuse across multiple shows?
That's the default. We engineer for modularity - reconfigurable framework, swappable graphics, flat-pack freight, palletised storage - so your stand works at a 36m² regional show and a 72m² European flagship without a rebuild. Cost-per-show drops sharply after your second event.
Do you work with international exhibitors and overseas shows?
Yes. We regularly deliver into Germany, France, the Netherlands, Italy, the UAE and the US. Local hall regulations (Messe rules, DWTC compliance, US union labour, EU electrical standards) are designed in from concept, and we coordinate freight, on-site contractors and customs paperwork end to end.
Are your exhibition stands sustainable and reusable?
Every stand is engineered against a reuse-first brief: aluminium sub-frames over timber where possible, FSC-certified panels, LED-only lighting, recyclable graphics substrates and a documented storage plan. We report material re-use rate at project close so you can evidence it in ESG and Scope 3 disclosures.
