    The Safariland Group @Enforce Tac 2025

    The Safariland Group

    Working with you and your team was a true pleasure from start to finish, and I’d be glad to share how positive the experience was: From our very first conversation, your team quickly understood exactly what we needed. You asked the right questions, listened closely, and transformed our ideas into a stand-out design that reflected our brand perfectly. The design phase was incredibly smooth. The 3D renderings were not only helpful but impressively accurate, and the collaborative process felt like a real partnership. Your flexibility, responsiveness, and attention to detail gave us total confidence throughout. When it came to the scope of work—pricing, timelines, and execution—everything was clearly laid out and delivered exactly as promised. No surprises, just solid planning and flawless follow-through. The final booth exceeded our expectations. The materials were top quality, the graphics looked fantastic, and the overall construction felt premium and professional. We received multiple compliments during the show, and much of that credit goes to your craftsmanship. On-site support was excellent. Your team was punctual, well-organized, and extremely helpful—even going above and beyond to assist with small extras that made a big difference. Everything was up and running on time, and teardown was just as smooth. Thank you again for making our event a success. We look forward to working with you again on future shows.

    Copenhagen Optimization @Passenger Terminal Expo (PTE) 2025

    Copenhagen Optimization

    We have been extremely satisfied with the cooperation with Expo Exhibition Stands. From the overall project scope to the very detailed operational execution they have always been professional and very accommodative to work with. Through it all, they have showed a very good understanding of, what we wanted to achieve as an exhibitor and how our brand and messaging would be presented in the best way possible. Sustainability is important for us as a company and we have internal policies for recycling, we buy "sustainable aviation fuel - SAF" when we travel with our home carrier SAS, and in general we try to have an eye for how we can run our business as environmentally friendly as possible. For that reason, it was important for us, not to have custom booth built, use it for three days, and then just toss everything afterwards. I found Expo Exhibition Stands online and it was a pleasant surprise when I talked to the company for the first time and discovered their focus on recycling and sustainable conference solutions. From there on we knew that was the right solution for us.

    Pharmilab @In-Cosmetics Global 2025

    Pharmilab

    We had a truly excellent experience working with Expo Exhibition Stands for our stand at in-cosmetics global 2025 in RAI Amsterdam. From the very beginning, the team demonstrated a deep understanding of our requirements and translated them into a design that captured exactly what we had envisioned. The design phase was smooth and collaborative — the 3D concepts were spot-on and we liked it from the very start. We appreciated how open and responsive the team was throughout the process, always taking our feedback into account and refining the design accordingly. In terms of pricing and timelines, everything was clear, transparent, and well-managed. The scope of work was clearly communicated from the start, and the final delivery was exactly as described. We liked the final result and the help with our Dry ice was fundamental - everyone liked our idea and stopped in the booth just to appreciate. On-site, the experience was just as positive, and I would highly recommend the company to anyone looking for a reliable and creative stand partner.

    Siglent Team

    The communication was flawless and very efficient. The process was fast, and we quickly achieved our target. We felt the pricing was fair, the timelines were well-planned, and the construction phase was handled professionally. Everything was as planned. The quality of the exhibition stand delivered at Embedded World 2025, held at Messe Nuremberg, was great—nothing to complain about. We really liked the process of handing over the finished stand.

    I want to thank you for your support with our beautiful booth in Prague. For us it was the first time working with a booth building company and you were very helpful, thinking along with us with advises and suggestions and replying to every questions we had. The booth construction together with the design was really nice, tailored to our needs. The quality of the printed graphics was perfect and also the lights were nicely located in the booth. Also the service on-site was great, the guys building the booth were friendly and keen to help us with some extra tasks like helping us storing our own pallet or lending us their vacuum cleaner. The booth was handed over on time and it was ready for the conference. A big thank you!
