You greet visitors in your exhibition space at the Commercial Vehicle Show 2026. The NEC Birmingham is buzzing, and your stand is a beacon of comfort, style, and functionality. Sunlight, or perhaps the warm glow of your own lighting, reflects off polished surfaces, and there’s an inviting atmosphere that draws people in. This is where visitors make connections, businesses strike deals, and your brand shines. We’re here to help you create that welcoming environment.

You’ve got a vision for your presence at the Commercial Vehicle Show, and we share that excitement. We partner to create your presence. Your stand creates a first impression. Perhaps you’re envisioning a sophisticated lounge area where potential clients can relax and discuss business away from the main thoroughfares. Our collection of comfortable sofas and lounge furniture offers plush seating that invites conversation and collaboration. Plush armchairs and stylish settees create intimate seating pods, making your stand a haven of calm amidst the show’s energy.

When visitors approach your stand, you want them to feel welcomed, not rushed. Offering a place to sit and talk is key. Consider our range of tables, from low coffee tables perfect for pairing with your lounge seating to more formal dining or demonstration tables. For those brief, important conversations, the sleek lines of our poseur tables paired with comfortable bar stools can create a dynamic and engaging space. These high-top arrangements encourage a more casual yet focused interaction, allowing for quick exchanges of ideas.

Your team will also need a comfortable and efficient space to work from. A well-equipped reception desk or a high counter can make all the difference. Our bar furniture isn't just for bars; it’s fantastic for creating functional and stylish reception areas or product display counters. We have options that can serve as a central hub for your operations, keeping your team organised and ready to engage with visitors.

The details matter, and we know you appreciate that. Tablecloths refine any surface, whether a demonstration table or a casual seating area. We offer a variety of colours and fabrics to complement your brand aesthetic. Crisp, clean linen drapes over your tables. This creates a polished, professional look and shows attention to detail.

Offering refreshments creates an experience. Even a simple water station or a coffee corner benefits from the right touches. Our crockery, including elegant plates and bowls, alongside quality cutlery, offers thoughtful hospitality. We provide glassware for all refreshments. From sparkling champagne glasses for a celebratory toast to sturdy beer glasses or sophisticated wine glasses, we have everything to make your hospitality shine.

Your stand's layout and flow guides visitors. Our barriers can help define your space, creating clear pathways and directing foot traffic in a way that feels natural and unobtrusive. These aren’t just functional; they can also contribute to the aesthetic, maintaining a clean and organised appearance for your entire area.

For interactive displays or product showcases, our display cabinets offer secure and attractive solutions to present your most valuable items. Your latest innovations or key components illuminate within a sleek cabinet, inviting closer inspection.

Even if your focus is on outdoor demonstrations or product displays, we’ve got you covered. Our outdoor furniture collection can bring comfort and style to any external exhibition area. And for those cooler Birmingham days or evenings, our patio heaters keep your outdoor space welcoming and comfortable for visitors throughout the show.

You might be looking to create a relaxed, informal vibe, perhaps for product demonstrations or networking sessions. Our bean bags offer a fun and casual seating option that can add a touch of personality to your stand. Paired with some low tables, they create an environment that’s approachable and engaging.
