Shell scheme options

There are two main types of shell scheme hire that we offer. We offer shell scheme display boards, a simple but versatile and cost-effective solution, and aluminium shell schemes which is our more premium and popular option.

We have galleries below, showing the different shell scheme options and what can be achieved by our shell scheme specialists.

Shell scheme display boards

Our shell scheme display boards are an ideal cost-effective solution for small to large events, where keeping costs low is paramount. With smaller build and dismantle timescales, our lightweight fabric covered display boards are a versatile shell scheme option. We can design your floor plans, supply lights, power, facia boards / name boards, half walls, and walk through areas. As with all our shell scheme options, we compliment this with a full graphic print service, furniture and AV hire services and nationwide install and dismantle.

Aluminium shell schemes

A premium option for medium to large events, the Octanorm system is the most popular type of shell scheme and is made up of aluminium components with an octagonal cross section with a slot in each face. Posts are connected together using the slots to create a robust framework. We can design your floor plans, supply lights, power, facia boards / name boards, and walk through areas. Complimented by our full graphic print service, furniture and AV hire services and nationwide install and dismantle.

Registration booths and badge collection

So you’ve done the hard work of selling the shell scheme stand space and publishing the exhibition. Now it is imperative that visitors find it easy to enter the show and find the registration booths. Whether pre-registered visitors or exhibitors; a plan an adequate means of registration with clear graphics needs to be put in place. This also helps inform visitors and exhibitors what to do and where to go.

Registration booths are the first impression exhibitors and visitors will have of your event. So the booths need to stand out and the graphics need to be eye catching. Access Displays have supplied hundreds of registration desks and badge collection booths to events all over the UK.

If you have a particular registration booth in mind then please discuss it with a shell scheme project manager on +44 1793 613088.

    – Gary Warner (Movex Equipment)

    Michael Smith

    I just wanted to say I have been doing this job for many years but not one stand builder has ever been so accommodating or as professional as your team but I want to single out Emma Thatcher as she has been simply outstanding as a project manager a true asset to your company.
    – Michael Smith (World Kitchen)

    Simon Durant

    We were 100% happy with the stand and the staff who erected and dismantled the stand both of whom were excellent, we have booked a slightly bigger space for W18 if you would like to pencil us in.
    – Simon Durant (LEUCO GB)

    Gary Davies

    I have exhibited at shows for over 20 years and been stand manager for the last 12 and this show was the most stress free, particularly during build. Your stand builders were very professional and hard working with great communication from all the guys.
