Floor up. Built in our workshop.
Slatebank Works designs and builds exhibition stands, reusable stand systems, pop-ups and permanent brand spaces. Thirty people, a 3,400 m² workshop, and a crew that stays on the hall floor until the doors open.
Floor
Raised floor down, levelled to the hall, cable routes cut in.
Walls
Numbered panels stand up in the order they were drawn.
Structure
Header, bulkheads and rigging points lift into place.
Graphics & light
Fabric skins stretch on. Lights aim at the product, not the aisle.
AV & furniture
Screens hung, counters set, stock on the shelves.
Handover
We walk it with you, close the snag list, and hand over the keys.
Built · Hall 4 · 24 m² corner · 2 days
3,400
m² of workshop floor
Design, joinery, paint, print and storage in one building, so a panel recut on Thursday is on the truck on Friday.
Stands in 12 months
From a 9 m² shell-scheme upgrade to a 150 m² island with live robot cells.
Missed opening days
In twelve years of build-ups. We rehearse every stand on our own floor before it ships.
Panels on a second show
Wall panels built in the last year that went on to another stand, another hall or another client.
Four recent builds, from a 24 m² inline stand to a harbour visitor centre.

S-01
Designed from a blank floor plan for one show and one brief. Built, rehearsed and installed by our own crew.
S-02
A kit you own. We store it, change it to fit each hall, and reprint the skins when your story changes.
S-03
Short-run spaces in shopping streets, stations, festival sites and shows. Built to go up quickly and come down clean.
S-04
Showrooms, visitor centres and lobbies that stay put. Built to be cleaned and repaired for years, not days.
HALL 2 · B14
Axlewright Robotics at Automata Week: a 10 × 15 m island with two working robot cells and a thirty-seat theatre, built in four days.

We own the tools, so we can change our minds late.
When a panel needs recutting on a Thursday, it gets recut on Thursday.

“Our kit has now done five shows in four halls. Each time it came back with a different shape, new graphics and the same counters. Our budget line for stands went down, and nobody on the floor noticed.”
