Stand Furniture for HR Brands

HR technology and services companies exhibiting at CIPD need stands that communicate professionalism and approachability - the sector is relationship-driven, and buyers respond to environments that feel welcoming. Our chair hire includes contemporary upholstered options suited to the HR industry aesthetic. A sofa and coffee table creates an approachable meeting zone for longer consultations. Poseur tables at the stand frontage create natural stopping points for delegates walking the exhibition floor.

Demo and Meeting Tables

Our table hire range provides clean surfaces for platform demonstrations and software walk-throughs. A meeting table with chairs creates a structured environment for client briefings and new business meetings during the show.

Catering and Refreshments

Our coffee machine hire covers on-stand hospitality. For evening networking drinks, our wine glass hire covers the requirement. Our Send It Back Dirty policy applies to all glassware and crockery.

The NEC has a total of 20 interconnected halls offering a total of 190,000 square metres (2 million square feet) of floor space. There are 16,500 parking spaces spread out around the site, with a shuttle bus operating to and from all the car parks.
