CNC & Exhibition Stands by Accelerate Brand Studio, Johannesburg

An exhibition stand has to do three contradictory things: look bespoke, survive being built and struck repeatedly, and fit in a vehicle. That is a manufacturing problem, not a printing one.

Our Brand Workshop division runs CNC carpentry and manufacturing for exhibition stands, modular activation structures, podiums, presentation boxes, furniture and bespoke décor — designed to be transported, assembled and re-used.

What we produce

  • Custom exhibition stands — designed, manufactured and finished to your brief
  • Modular activation structures — reconfigurable systems for multi-venue campaigns
  • Podiums and counters — branded demo, sampling and registration units
  • Branded furniture — seating, tables and display units for stands and retail
  • Presentation and display boxes — rigid, precision-cut retail and gifting units
  • Bespoke décor and props — one-off builds for events and activations

Why produce this with Accelerate

We run print and manufacturing in the same business, across two divisions — Brand Studio and Brand Workshop. That means a project needing cnc & exhibition stands alongside other branding does not get split between suppliers, so brand colour stays consistent and there is one person accountable for the deadline.

We are based in Randburg, Johannesburg and deliver nationwide. Every enquiry gets a written quote with a firm deadline within 24 hours on business days.

CNC & Exhibition Stands FAQs

The questions we get asked most about cnc & exhibition stands.

Do you design exhibition stands or only build them?
Both. We can manufacture from a design you or your agency supplies, or design to your brief and then build it. Working both ways matters, because a stand that looks good in a render but cannot be transported or assembled in the time the venue allows is not a usable stand.
How far in advance should we book an exhibition stand?
As early as you have the stand size and the venue rules, because manufacturing, print and finishing all have to be sequenced before the build date. Expo season concentrates demand, so booking early also protects your slot. Call 065 529 8846 with your event date and we will tell you what is achievable.
Can an exhibition stand be re-used at multiple events?
Yes — that is the point of a modular build. We design structures to be assembled and struck repeatedly, with graphics that can be swapped between campaigns. It costs more than a single-use build up front and is considerably cheaper across a season of events.
What is the difference between Brand Studio and Brand Workshop?
Brand Studio covers design, print media, digital and litho printing, banners and branding across print. Brand Workshop covers CNC carpentry, laser cutting, exhibition stands, packaging and specialised manufacturing. Most activation projects use both, which is why they sit inside one business — one brief, one point of contact.
Can you build branded furniture and podiums for an activation?
Yes. Podiums, counters, demo and sampling units, seating, tables and display units are standard Brand Workshop work. Because we also print and apply the graphics in-house, the furniture and the surrounding stand graphics come off the same colour reference.
