TRADE SHOW KITS FOR SAMPLES AND COLLATERAL

UK-made trade show kits that keep samples and collateral together, easy to pack and refresh between stands, with four-week production.

Exhibition Kits, We Keep Packing and Unpacking Simple

Trade show kits keep samples and collateral in one organised set so stand teams can pack, move and be able to reset quickly. We mark clear homes and labels so everyone knows where things go. A 3D visual helps the stand team agree layouts in advance, so setup is repeatable across days.

Trade Show Kits FAQs

  • Our standard lead time is four weeks from artwork sign-off. Before that you’ll approve a plain sample (structure) and a 3D visual (artwork). If the date is tight, we’ll discuss the best options to meet it and confirm what’s achievable before we start.

  • Yes. We prioritise approvals, suggest finish tweaks if it helps timing, and keep you updated against a simple plan. We’ll talk through the best route to meet your deadline and set clear checkpoints.

  • Typical runs start at set counts for stand teams (tens), with room to scale. We can pilot smaller to prove the format, then increase as demand grows. We’ll advise on the most efficient route for your numbers.

  • Yes. We design recyclable card fitments around your products, so everything holds position, with protective outers available where the route demands it. You can test the fit using the plain sample before we print.

  • Our default spec is FSC-certified boards with sustainable inks and coatings, which are all fully recyclable.

  • Often, yes. Foil used in small areas is so thin it behaves like ink in recycling, so it washes out. Single-sided laminates on sturdy boxes are usually acceptable because the film is tiny compared with the paper fibres.

  • Yes, if required. We offer kitting, assembly and co-packing, plus international multi-address despatch, with QC sign-off, tracking links, and despatch reports. If you prefer, we can ship to a single address for your team to pack.

  • Send your products and brief; a mood board helps us see what you like. We’ll discuss ideas, then produce a plain sample for structural sign-off based on your preferred route. Next we share a 3D visual for approval and move to a four-week production.

Sustainable Materials and Finishes for Shows

Exhibition kits benefit from materials that last the week and respect the spec. We choose FSC boards, recyclable card fitments, and sustainable inks and coatings, adding finishes such as foil, emboss, spot gloss, and soft-touch laminates. UK-made production helps avoid long-haul emissions. At FMB we guide finishes that stand up to events without over-specifying.

  • FSC-certified boards and recyclable card fitments as standard

  • Sustainable inks and coatings specified by default

  • Finish swatches and a clear material spec before sign-off

  • Spot gloss, foil, emboss or deboss, and soft-touch laminates

  • UK-made production that avoids long haul freight emissions

Zara Ahmed, Events Manager: “Show season is hectic. FMB kept samples and collateral together so pack in and out were quick, and staff could find what they needed. The stand stayed tidy all week and handovers were simple. Much appreciated.”
