When shopping for providers of exhibition printing services consider the following:
- Types of exhibition printing offered
- Costs involved
- Materials on which they can do exhibition printing
- Design capabilities of the team
The quality of exhibition printing must be outstanding, especially considering the fact that you will only have one chance to make a positive impression. The visitors will decide within ten seconds whether they want to visit your site or not. Once the visitors are at your booth, you will want them to take brochures, remember specific messages, and enquire about advertised products or services. For such you will need high quality exhibition printing and design. Don’t settle for the first company that offers such. Opt for a company with a proven track record in printing for exhibitions. The choice should be Scan Display.

Exhibition Display Unit – Factors To Consider
When browsing for an exhibition display unit, consider more than just the appearance. If you select a too large and bulky exhibition display unit for the event, you may pay more for space, transport, and setup. Carefully consider your particular display needs when shopping for an exhibition display unit. Consider whether you will want a portable unit, Unibox or custom stand. The portable unit can be the best choice if you plan to exhibit at various events or plan to exhibit in another town. Consider the space available, your budget, specific lay-out requirements, and the visual effect that you want to create in addition to whether you want to rent or purchase an exhibition display unit.

Scan Display to showcase European innovation at Markex
Exhibitions, events and display specialist, Scan Display, will showcase European innovation in the form of a Modulbox at SA’s premier marketing and promotions trade exhibition, Markex Jhb 2010. The Modulbox was designed in Germany by Mo Systeme, and Scan has the exclusive rights to produce this product in South Africa.

Scan Markex 2010
The Modulbox has the typical German traits of intelligent design. For example, the closed box forms a 2.45m cube, making it easy to transport. The doors and floor open up or slide out in a variety of set-up combinations to fulfil different requirements, and the process is quick and simple. Additionally, the multiple doors provide a large surface area which lends itself to highly visible branding.

Scan stand - Markex 2009
The result is a stand-in-a-box exhibition, retail and event solution. It is ideal for outdoor promotions or events, road-shows, exhibitions with limited set-up and break-down times – and more.
Justin Hawes, MD of Scan Display, says: “The Modulbox is very versatile and it was used extensively during the World Cup to create information booths and ticketing kiosks.”
The Modulbox will appear in an urban European scene to enforce the message that it is a product of first class European design, as well as to show it in a functional context.
Other exciting surprises in keeping with the theme have been planned for Markex, to ensure Scan’s stand inspires visitors to the show.
Markex will run from the 24 to 27 of August, at Sandton Convention Centre. You will find the Scan Display stand in Hall 2, stand C27.

Scan Display embodied the values of Design Indaba at this year’s show, striving for innovation blended with intelligent design.
As the show’s official service contractor, Scan was responsible for the design and project management of the exhibition. Through Scan’s use of cutting-edge display products, the expo structure itself became a showcase of design excellence and possibilities.
Rolled Carpet
Scan used Italian-imported rolled carpet for full-lay carpeting. This style of carpeting results in fewer joins in the

flooring and is neater and sleeker than traditional tile carpets. Black carpeting was used throughout the pavilion, overlaid with carpeted pathways in four bold colours which helped to demarcate different areas for visitors in a visually striking way.
Mike Purdham from Interactive Africa (the organisers of Design Indaba) says: “Constantly seeking to raise the bar, the Design Indaba Expo and Scan have collaborated to introduce a number of firsts to the exhibition industry. The 2010 edition saw the introduction of full-lay carpeting for the first time, and we have had an overwhelmingly positive response from exhibitors and visitors alike.”
Modulbox
Scan used an exciting addition to its product range, the Modulbox,
to create the Interactive Africa stand. The simple and compact nature of this stand-in-a-box makes it quick and easy to transport and construct, which is invaluable given the restricted time available for set-up and break-down.
Despite its simplicity, the box is customisable for a variety of layouts to maximise the available space and serve the varying needs of exhibitors.
Mike Purdham says of the Modulbox: “Its ease of use and quick set-up time gave us one less thing to worry about. The stand was one of the stand-out features of the 2010 Design Indaba Expo.”
Success
This was the fifth year that Scan has worked in partnership with Interactive Africa to create the Design Indaba Expo. This year’s show was the most successful in terms of visitor turnout – 29,000 visitors attended last year, while this year a record breaking 35,000 visitors passed through the doors.
