How KOP delivers exhibitions stands for Horecava
KOP delivers custom exhibition stands for RAI Amsterdam. Whether you need a compact corner stand or a large-scale brand experience, as a full-service stand builder we take care of the design, engineering, production and turnkey delivery. Our approach is always bespoke, but every project follows three clear phases: design, production and realisation.
Having an exhibition stand designed
We start with a clear briefing: the objective of the trade fair, target audience, KPIs and the desired brand experience. Based on this, we develop a creative concept with visitor flow, sight lines, demo zones and clear CTA areas. You’ll receive a transparent quotation with options for modular reuse and scalable AV.
Production of an exhibition stand
In the production phase, we prefabricate as many components as possible in our workshop for a fast and error-free build-up in Amsterdam. We handle all technical requests with RAI, such as power, water, internet, rigging and floor load capacity. Graphics, AV and furniture are tested and labelled so that everything is in the right place straight away.
Assembly and turnkey delivery
Frequently asked questions about stand construction
▶ How much does an exhibition stand or stand build cost?
The cost of stand construction varies per project, because every design, size and concept is unique. At KOP Expo we create a tailored proposal based on your brand objectives, design preferences and desired finish. We also think along with you about smart choices in materials and reuse, so your investment continues to deliver returns in the long term.
▶ How long does stand construction take from design to delivery?
The average lead time for a complete stand construction project is between 16 and 24 weeks. This includes the design phase, technical development, production, assembly and coordination with the trade show organiser. We start well in advance to ensure every detail is right and handover runs smoothly.
▶ What types of exhibition stands are there?
There are different types of exhibition stands, such as inline stands, corner stands, peninsula stands and island stands. Each type has its own advantages in terms of visibility, visitor flow and interaction with visitors. At KOP Expo we design every concept fully bespoke, tailored to the space, target audience and look and feel of your brand.
▶ Is sustainable stand construction possible?
Yes, sustainability is a fixed part of the way we work. We design for reuse, work with circular materials and produce with attention to the environment and efficiency. A sustainable stand is not only better for the planet, it also strengthens your brand image on the exhibition floor.
▶ How do you prepare for a trade fair?
A successful trade fair participation starts with a solid plan: clear goals, the right message and a stand that reinforces your brand. Think about visitor flows, demonstrations and the right team on the stand. KOP Expo supports you in the preparation so your trade fair delivers maximum results.
▶ What is the difference between modular and bespoke stand construction?
A modular stand consists of reusable elements and offers a lot of flexibility for recurring trade fairs. A bespoke stand is fully tailored to your brand and creates a unique appearance. KOP Expo combines the best of both worlds, so your stand is functional, sustainable and distinctive.
AV, LED & interactive demo’s
Technology is there to serve your story: LED walls, audio, touchscreens and sensors are integrated for maximum stopping power. We test all hardware and content in advance so everything is plug-and-play on the exhibition floor. Interaction increases dwell time and lead quality, while we take care of cable management and service access in a clean and efficient way.
Sustainable stand construction: modular & circular
We build using reusable frames, recycled panels and energy-efficient LEDs to reduce your footprint. Thanks to modular customisation, you can adapt layouts and floor space for each trade fair without having to reinvest every time. This lowers your TCO over the entire year while keeping your appearance premium. Read more about sustainable stand construction.
Storage, maintenance & trade fair calendar management
After the event, we carefully dismantle the stand, label all components and store them under our management. We schedule maintenance, graphic updates and further development towards your next show. This way, you have a single partner for design, stand construction, logistics and full lifecycle management of your exhibition stand.
Measurable results & optimisation
We design around visitor flow and conversion points, so that conversations, demos and scans demonstrably increase. After each trade fair, we evaluate the KPIs and optimise the layout, messaging and use of AV. This way, your concept becomes stronger with every edition and the ROI of your trade fair participation keeps growing.

Across Europe, we support cities such as Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Cologne, Munich, Ghent and Paris with the same quality standards and a single point of contact.

What does stand construction cost?
The cost of stand construction varies per project. Factors include the number of square metres, design complexity, choice of materials, the use of AV/LED, rental or purchase components and logistics (build-up and breakdown, transport). Because every brand and every trade fair is different, we don’t work with fixed prices but with a transparent, tailored quotation. As part of this, we advise on reuse and the total cost over multiple trade fairs (TCO).
