Why use a stand designer like Alphaexpo?
Our method

We meet: your vision is our starting point.

At Alphaexpo, one of our key principles (and one that appeals to many of our customers) is to have a single point of contact! A single contact, who will follow you from the brief to the debriefing of your stand project!

Do you have your own surface?

Beautiful creative concepts (but not only):

From a set of specifications, our ideas take shape to create a unique concept. A beautiful design stand is great!

A beautiful stand that will bring lots of new customers to your teams, that's the grail! And that's what we want for you.

Production from A to Z in our Iso 20121-certified workshops

We manage not only design, but also manufacturing, thanks to our joinery divisions integrated into our stand agency.

The result? Spaces just as you want them, no nasty surprises and controlled costs.

Smooth assembly: we're there when you need us.

Our teams take care of the assembly. And that makes all the difference! 

Events are always full of surprises. And surprises we've managed! We take care of the unexpected before and during the show, so you (and your customers) can get on with business.

Delivery and control during events:

Manage unforeseen events in FRANCE and EUROPE immediately!

That's our commitment! We'll never leave you to fend for yourself with your exhibition stand ... That's our promise to you!

 CSR and storage :

Your stand is in good hands, even after D-Day. As part of our CSR approach, we offer to store some of your stand fittings, with the aim of reusing them the following year. Depreciable (storage and insurance costs).

Are you satisfied?

Debriefing is essential for us. We want to know what you liked, and what you'd like to improve for future editions.

We're not infallible, but we're determined to do better than ever before!

We answer your questions!

Got questions? Participating in a trade show isn't always easy, and that's perfectly normal! Our answers are here to enlighten and reassure you. After all, at Alphaexpo, your peace of mind is our priority.

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Send us a message and we'll be happy to answer.

The custom booth builder 's job is to design custom booths for trade shows and events.

A stand designer is a professional who creates exhibition stands.

Stand designers work closely with customers to transform their vision and brand objectives into an attractive space that can convert prospects into customers.

At Alphaexpo our role is to be your partner in this event adventure.

Whether you're looking for a stand builder or a stand builder in Lyon, here's why you should choose us.

1.management from A to Z: from design to storage

Si besoin, nous sommes également en capacité de stocker votre stand d’exposition pour réutilisation lors d’un futur événement. Nous intervenons principalement en tant que standiste à Lyon,  partout en France  mais aussi en Europe. N’hésitez pas à parcourir notre site ou à nous contacter pour en savoir plus.

4. Our two iso 20121-certified integrated manufacturing facilities

We have all the skills in-house, with our own carpentry workshops to produce custom-made stands. This enables us to manage deadlines, manufacturing quality and, above all, cost. 

Et cerise sur le gâteau, nos menuiseries sont certifiées iso 2012

A customized stand? It's the assurance of having an event design that reflects you and speaks directly to your target audience. At Alphaexpo, we believe that every detail of your stand design should tell part of your story. 

Imagine a space that not only catches the eye, but also engages your prospects in conversation. That's the magic of Alphaexpo!

Ideally, we advise you to start planning your stand at least 4 to 6 months before the event.

This gives you enough time to design a customized stand, make adjustments, and plan the necessary logistics.

Alphaexpo's tip: the earlier you start designing your stand, the more serene you'll be, and the better you'll be able to manage any unforeseen events.

To effectively choose a professional stand designer who will meet your expectations for business events, it's essential to follow certain key criteria.

Here are our three practical stand tips:

1. Evaluate experience and references

A good stand builder must have solid experience in stand design and construction.

Ask to see examples of his latest event creations, to get an idea of his style.

Take a look at reviews and testimonials too: they'll reassure you about the seriousness of your

2. Check the range of services offered

It's important that the custom stand builder you choose can offer a complete range of services tailored to your specific needs. This includes not only the design and manufacture of the stand, but also logistical services such as transport, installation, dismantling and possibly storage. A supplier who can handle all these aspects will simplify your event management and ensure a smooth execution.

3. "Relationships are important!

Are you looking for the best professional stand builder? And you should! There are many agencies that meet the first two criteria, but what really counts is the feeling!

Event management is all about dealing with the unexpected.

So you need to have blind confidence in the person you're talking to. There will be many exchanges, and they may last several months.

So if you don't get the hang of it right from the start, it's going to be complicated...

The advantages of a custom-built stand: This type of layout is without doubt the one that allows the most freedom! This limitless creativity will let you shine at your trade shows and events! 

The advantages of a modular stand:
Modular stands are becoming increasingly popular! In fact, the modular stand is much more in tune with today's concerns. 

The creative possibilities may be less extensive, but your stand will be designed to be reused at future events.

As you can see, this type of landscaping is more economical and environmentally friendly. 

The advantages of the hybrid stand :

It's the compromise stand that combines creativity and ecology!

Choosing the right trade show involves considering several factors:

  • Sector relevance: It must be well-targeted to your industry.
  • Audience: Check that the event attracts visitors who are your potential customers.
  • ROI (Return on Investment): Evaluate exhibitors' previous profits to judge the event's potential.
  • Location and accessibility : Make sure the location is accessible for your team and equipment.

    Not sure which one to choose? It's only natural.

    That's also our role as stand design specialists: to help you choose THE right stand!

Is this your first trade show? And you're wondering whether you should use a stand designer?

A modular stand builder is a company specializing in the design, manufacture and installation of exhibition stands using modular structures.

These structures are easily assembled, disassembled, reused and reconfigured for different events and stand configurations. 

Alphaexpo is the exclusive partner of Nomadic Display , the specialist in the design of demountable stands.

Their modular, demountable structures are true benchmarks.

The main objective of a trade show stand is to maximize your company's visibility and impact with a targeted audience.

Here are some of the main roles:

  1. Generate leads: An attractive stand can help attract more visitors and facilitate exchanges.

  2. Enhance your brand image: A well-designed and well-located stand can increase your brand's visibility and strengthen its presence in the industry. Events are among the most effective communications operations.

  3. Launch new products or services: A stand enables live demonstrations and immediate feedback from customers and industry professionals.

  4. Establish and nurture business relationships: These meeting places for industry professionals provide an opportunity to meet business partners, suppliers and even competitors, and to develop or strengthen professional relationships.

  5. Education and information: A stand allows you to provide detailed information about your products and services through brochures, demonstrations and presentations.
    This helps educate potential customers about what you offer and how it can meet their needs.

  6. Competitor evaluation: Being present at trade shows gives you a direct view of what your competitors are offering.

  7. Team building: This can also serve as training and motivation for your employees, giving them a better understanding of the industry, the company's products, and improving their sales and communication skills.

  1. Events have a significant carbon footprint.

    We're well aware of that! But that doesn't stop us from trying to reduce the carbon footprint of our stands as much as possible.

    Here are a few actions:

    • the modular stand
    • use of recycled materials
    • reuse of components on multiple vents
    • our millwork is iso 20121 certified
    • we optimize logistics ...

    We're far from claiming to be the perfect CSR stallholder, but we're trying in our own small way to contribute to this more ecological and responsible vision.
