Four practical guides.
B1, M1 and EN 13501: which fire certificate does your exhibition hall ask for?
The German B1, the French M1 and the European EN 13501 side by side, and what halls in Germany, the Netherlands and France require of your stand fabric.
Read the guide ↗Delivery to the exhibition: the courier does not enter the hall
RAI Amsterdam and Messe Düsseldorf do not let couriers onto the floor. What happens to your parcel instead, what handling costs, and how to avoid it.
Read the guide ↗How many lumens does your exhibition wall need?
Exhibition halls sit at around 300 to 500 lux. How much light output your backlit wall needs to stand out against that, and why more is not always better.
Read the guide ↗Preparing artwork for a backlit fabric
Resolution, bleed, colour profile, seam positions and safe margins for the print file of a lightbox exhibition wall. With the mistakes made most often.
Read the guide ↗Pop-up wall, LED lightbox wall or roll-up banner?
A pop-up wall is a folding frame with a printed fabric: quick to set up, but not lit. An LED lightbox wall lights the print from behind, so it stays visible in a bright exhibition hall. A roll-up banner is the smallest and cheapest of the three.

04 FAQ
Straight answers.
If an answer depends on the venue, stand plan or deadline, we say so.
What does an illuminated exhibition wall cost?+
A single-sided 300 × 250 cm wall starts at €1,390 excluding VAT, including frame and fabric. Renting the same wall for one exhibition starts at €880 excluding VAT. Published prices are starting prices for the standard configuration; artwork, add-ons, rush production and delivery outside the Benelux are quoted on top, and your quotation fixes the final figure.
How long does delivery take?+
Allow 25–35 days after artwork approval. A 4 working day rush service may be available at additional cost. We never confirm an exhibition date we cannot meet.
Does a three-metre wall fit in a car (China line)?+
On the economical line from China, yes: the 300 × 250 cm wall packs into a 127 × 47 × 25.5 cm case and weighs 22.5 kg, which fits in an estate car with the rear seats folded. The fast EU line is a complete set of 50 to 70 kg in a case on wheels; it comes on a pallet and needs a van.
Do I need a B1 certificate?+
Almost always in German exhibition halls; in the Netherlands it depends on the organiser. Our fabrics are B1 under DIN 4102-1 and the certificate is supplied. The certificate covers the fabric, not an entire stand or venue approval.
Can I replace the fabric later?+
Yes. Keep the aluminium frame and order a new printed fabric for the next campaign. That costs a fraction of a new wall.
