CNP Self Build Case Study

Initial Brief
CNP, a leading name in their industry, was looking for an exhibition stand they could transport, build, and break down in-house. With a busy event schedule spanning both the UK and international trade shows, they needed a solution that would allow them to cut costs while maintaining a strong brand presence.
The key objectives were:
A stand that could be used multiple times throughout the year.
Designed for easy transportation and in-house assembly.
Flexible design to easily reconfigure for different events.
A cost-effective alternative to traditional exhibition stand hire.
A branded space that would showcase and store products and increase brand awareness.
Design & Planning
Our team worked closely with Chris and Rachael from CNP to design a modular, reusable exhibition stand that aligned perfectly with their brand identity.
The stand was tailored to feature:
CNP’s signature branding – incorporating their bold colours and a backlit logo.
Product display areas – allowing them to showcase their offerings effectively.
A flexible modular system – ensuring easy adjustments for different exhibition spaces.
By keeping portability and efficiency at the heart of the design, we ensured CNP had a versatile stand that would work across multiple events without compromising impact.
Training
To ensure a seamless transition to self-building their stand, we provided hands-on training days with our expert build team. Chris and Rachael worked side-by-side with our team, learning every step of the setup and breakdown process.
Key aspects of training included:
Step-by-step stand assembly guidance.
How to safely transport and store the modular components.
Best practices for quick and efficient builds at future events.
With this training, CNP’s team gained the confidence and skills to set up their exhibition stand independently, saving them time and resources at every show.
Results
The CNP self build exhibition stand is already proving to be a game-changer for their exhibition strategy. Instead of relying on external build teams, they now have complete control over their setup process.
Key benefits so far:
Significant cost savings – no installation fees, reduced logistics costs.
Total flexibility – the stand can be reconfigured for different shows.
Upcoming international use – CNP’s first independent build will be in Germany.
The investment in a self build stand has given CNP long-term savings and maximum event flexibility, making it an ideal solution for their busy exhibition calendar.
