Event Infrastructure for Events
Scan Display offers a wide range of products and solutions that are ideal for events and retail displays for retail purposes, as well as infrastructure solutions for events such as expos and conferences. Should you be looking for a company that can handle display infrastructure for your event, Scan Display can provide a range of products along with floorplan layouts to ensure that your event has correctly spaced areas for every exhibition stand at your event.
With a range of innovative exhibition products, such as registration counters, sound-dampened meeting rooms, electrical products, and flooring options, your event will be in professional hands, and we will give you the peace of mind to focus on other aspects of your planning and leave the exhibitions to us. With a choice between standard shell schemes and fabric booths, your event infrastructure will not only be simplistic and effective, but also aesthetically friendly and easy to navigate.
Our standard shell scheme offers a modular system and is versatile to adapt to almost any configuration, depending on your event’s requirements. Our fabric booth option, which is also available in a modular option, uses the Tension Fabric System to construct the booths, taking distracting structure poles out of the equation and offering a solid fabric wall that can be branded with graphics as well. If you wish to see our event infrastructure in action, be sure to come check out the Markex and Madex 2018 events, where Scan Display will not only provide the infrastructure, but we will also incorporate our brand-new Fabric Pop-Up Systems in the exhibitions.

Tambo International Airport, the event is accessible for anyone in Africa and across the world, giving you even more reasons to attend and experience the effectiveness of our event infrastructure for yourself.

The Power of Light
When it comes to exhibitions, expos, and conferences, you will find that specified floor spaces for various stands are usually made available that can be used by companies and businesses to not only promote their brands, but also have a corporate presence at these events. Exhibition stands are commonly used for promotional and marketing purposes at events, where companies and entrepreneurs rally to spread the word of their business to everyone attending. In some cases, these stands are also used to showcase, market, and sell products to the attendees, but this means that a regular stand will just not suffice. This is where Scan Display can make a difference to your next event.
Spicing Up Your Exhibition Stand with Lighting
No matter which event you will be attending with your exhibitions in the next year, you can always improve your stands and their lighting to make them more inviting and effective. One of the best ways to accomplish this is by using the power of light to your advantage. At Scan Display, we offer various exhibition stands that will ensure that you have the right tools at your disposal, with one of these stands being the impressive Modulbox.
The Modulbox is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, with its open design making best use of the ambient lighting. This is where you can use lighting in your design to improve your exhibition, whether you place your exhibition stand in a well-lit area or provide your own lighting to improve the display quality. Scan Display also offers custom stands that can be built to your preferences. Therefore, you can use lighting in your exhibition design to set your custom stand apart.
One of the most important things to remember in terms of the use of lighting for your exhibition stand design is to assess where you would need what level of light, except if you want your stand to use lighting merely as an aesthetic enhancement to lure more people to your exhibition. Should this be the case, ensure that the lights on your stand are placed in such a way to complement your stand and make your brand easily noticeable and identifiable. Your exhibition stand would therefore benefit greatly from proper lighting, so ensure that your lighting matches the environment, as discordant lighting intensity or placement will have a detrimental impact on your stand’s visual appeal.
If you want some examples of how to use lighting to best effect in your exhibition stand design, feel free to browse our website for images on custom Scan Display stands. We offer various solutions for exhibition stands, as well as more than enough knowledge and experience to ensure that your stand will be as effective as possible at your next event. Peruse our website for more information, or contact us directly with further enquiries, and let Scan Display take your next exhibition stand to the next aesthetic level with expert lighting techniques.

Mining Indaba 2018 Floor Layout
It is paramount to know where specific areas are at an event like this, so that you can plan your day ahead of time to assure that you do not miss anything you are interested in.

The second stage is specifically for the Junior Mining Forum, and can be found at the opposite side of the building, next to the Networking and Coffee zones. A third stage will be introduced for Government Sessions and Technical Tracks, with the Speed Networking area separating this stage from the Junior Mining Forum area.
Other zones include the Business Matchmaking Zone and the Investment Battlefield, with exhibition spaces making up the rest of the available floor space in the building. A host of junior mining companies, speakers, and investors will be attending the Mining Indaba 2018, offering excellent opportunities for mining companies in South Africa.

Should You Rent or Purchase Your Exhibition Equipment?
Most businesses take part in trade shows or exhibitions to introduce their brands, services or products to the potential target markets, because it is vital that customers become familiar with the brands, in order to make use of them. Because space at these events is very expensive, and you have to get the most value for your money, it is important that you are able to create the most attractive exhibition stand that will not only draw customers to your stand, but also help you to make the most of the space and keep customers there for long enough to engage with your brand and sales staff.
A lot of companies opt for owning their own exhibition materials for their stands, but there are, however, some limitations when it comes to this. For instance, if you don’t take part in regular exhibitions or trade shows, or your products change often, it may not be worthwhile to purchase a permanent stand. Rental may be a better option.
Because exhibitions are enormously important for getting your brand and your customer together, and to find new markets and prospects, you have to ensure that your stand is more engaging than those of your competitors. This not only draws the right people to your stand, but it also keeps them there, thus allowing them to interact with your product or service, and learn more about what you can provide, as well as how it can benefit them. Setting up such a stand can be difficult. Usually, marketing and sales professionals have their own ideas about how things should work and what it should look like. But what you need has to be innovative and modern, and should represent the identity of the brand as well as possible.
If you are trying to decide whether to purchase or rent your exhibition equipment, read this:
- Are you new to exhibiting?
If you are not that au fait with the world of exhibitions, you may need some help in the beginning. Renting will give you flexibility and expertise that you may not necessarily have if you decide to purchase your exhibition equipment. Renting these items will help you to know what works and what doesn’t. There are a lot of things to learn in this industry, and starting out easy with a rental and an experienced exhibition stand designer is the best way to go.
- Are you an irregular exhibitor?
If you don’t constantly make a play for trade shows, or you only attend one or two exhibitions a year, it may not be worth your while to invest in the purchase of exhibition equipment. Rental is also a lot better if you don’t exhibit frequently. It means that you don’t have to pay for storage and maintenance of your exhibition equipment, and that you always have access to the latest exhibition equipment on the market. If you don’t exhibit at least five or six times a year, it is simply not worth the investment of purchasing all your exhibition equipment.
- Do you exhibit at remote places or overseas?
It is very painful and expensive to haul an entire stand across a country or overseas. This means that you are much better off tapping into the local resources that are available. You will be free of all the extra luggage, checking things in and checking items out of cargo, and repeating the whole process on the way home. It makes sense when you think about it, and you will find that rental is a lot more cost effective.
If you are looking for some serious expertise and awesome exhibition equipment to rent in South Africa, just contact our talented team at Scan Display.

Why You Need Professional Expo Furniture for Your Next Trade Show
If your business gets a boost through the regular attendance of trade shows and exhibitions, you will probably know that you need to make the most of the space you are allocated. During exhibitions, space is at a premium and costs a lot, and you simply have to make the most of the space that you are allocated during your time at the exhibition.
Your stand’s main objective is to draw people in and to make the stand as attractive to your target market as possible. Because not many company employees have the know-how to utilise the space optimally, it is always important to get some exhibition professionals in to provide you with the best expo furniture to help you with your efforts to draw a crowd.
You know that you need a variety of things, such as banners, flags, a coffee machine, comfortable seating, and all the necessary audiovisual stimulation you can muster. You need to bring your brand and your potential customer closer to each other, you need to introduce them to each other, and provide them with a space to interact and get to know each other.
This is where a professional expo designer with high-end furniture can help. You need to employ a company that is able to provide you with high-quality expo furniture that will hold your company in high esteem. This means that you can get all kinds of displays, including fabric frames, seating, audiovisuals, and other items that can make your stand more attractive than those around you!
Branded gazebos are usually a safe bet. Not only do they stand out above eye level, but they also provide an intimate place where your potential customers can make themselves at home, while becoming familiar with your brand. Let’s not forget how busy exhibitions normally are – people stroll through them for hours on end, and it can be exhausting. Providing people with an opportunity to relax while taking in some brand information is always a win, and gazebos are particularly good at creating these types of spaces..
Many organisations who regularly take part in exhibitions and trade shows have their own ideas and expo furniture in order to represent their brands, but it does help to have access to a serious amount of variety. Employing a company that can make every one of your exhibition stands rise above the competition, and making your stand more noticeable and pleasant than others can be a huge challenge, but with the right people on your side, you have nothing to worry about! Organisations such as Scan Display can make that happen without too much effort!
At Scan Display, we love to increase your visual and sensual appeal. This means that through our quality placement of expo furniture, artistic displays and branding, we are able to provide your customers with the ideal space where they can feel at home, stimulated, and motivated to get to know your brand a lot better. We specialise in creating great spaces that are conducive to business, and we help you by providing you with great stands and innovative expo furniture.
