Beyond the Build

Storage & Reuse

Modular systems that pay back over years, not shows.

Modular exhibition stand systems and warehouse storage so the investment you make once flexes across multiple shows - sustainable, cost-efficient, and consistently on-brand from Birmingham to Berlin.

A stand shouldn't be a landfill line-item. We build with modular elements that reconfigure across venues and years, and hold your equipment in our climate-controlled Chester warehouse between shows.

Bespoke doesn't have to mean disposable. Most of the stands we design are built on a modular skeleton - a system that reconfigures for 3x3, 6x6 and 12x12 footprints - with bespoke joinery, graphics and lighting layered on top. You get a stand that feels custom every time and pays back over three, five, sometimes ten years of shows.

Between shows, your equipment lives in our own warehouse. Every item is inventoried, condition-checked and photographed after each show, and refreshed on a scheduled cycle so graphics never turn up looking tired.

The environmental case matters and so does the commercial one. A modular reused stand is typically 40–60% cheaper across three shows than three one-off builds - and the carbon story is genuinely defensible.

FAQs

Frequently asked.

Everything exhibitors ask us before signing off a stand, costs, lead times, reuse, overseas shows and the sustainability question.

Where is the warehouse?

Our secure, climate-controlled warehouse is at our Chester HQ - same site as design, print and workshop.

How is stored equipment protected?

Everything is inventoried, condition-checked and photographed after each show, and stored under insured, climate-controlled conditions.

Can you refresh graphics without replacing the stand?

Yes - that's the point of the modular approach. Graphics, digital content and lighting can all refresh while the frame stays.

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 £80,000 for a bespoke 80m² 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.
