Farnborough International Airshow

Our 26th year of organising the exhibition area and supervising the event as a whole

3/23/2023

Showcasing the newest and most exceptional technological developments of the moment, we’ve built a solid relationship with the organizers based on years of hard work, dedication, trust and product knowledge.

Organising this type of event means overcoming complex technical challenges. In addition to building and arranging the layout of the stands, it is often necessary to lift and move huge loads. Key facts concerning the Farnborough site include:

the exhibition site covers more than 100,000 m², hosting 1,500 exhibitors
we have to cater to more than 5,000 m² of storage space for empty creates
10,000 tonnes of freight and more than 40,000 vehicles are moved into and out of the site for the show

"You demonstrated that above all, you will do whatever is necessary to ensure our visitor's safety comes before everything. I know I say it a lot but I am glad to have you all in our 'trench‘.”
