Custom-made stands: carpentry at the service of exhibition design
In the world of exhibition setups, customization is a key factor in standing out and leaving a lasting impression on visitors. Creating custom stands doesn’t just mean choosing colors or materials, but designing solutions that reflect a brand’s identity and are perfectly functional for the event or trade show.
The carpentry workshop plays a crucial role in this process, offering the ability to create tailor-made projects with artisanal precision and technological innovation.

The role of carpentry in creating custom stands
In the context of exhibition setups, carpentry is a key element in the creation of custom stands. Every project starts with an idea or vision, and the carpentry workshop’s job is to translate these ideas into physical structures that capture the essence of the brand on display.
Thanks to woodworking, it’s possible to build display elements that not only draw visual attention but are also functional and durable. Wood offers design flexibility that few other materials can match: it can be shaped into unique forms, finished with fine textures, and combined with other materials like metal, glass, or fabrics to create innovative designs.
This ability to craft custom wood pieces allows carpenters to meet every specific customer request. If the brand wants to convey a modern, minimalist image, clean and linear structures can be created; if the goal is to create a warm, welcoming environment, natural woods can be used, perhaps with matte or rustic finishes.
In this context, environmental sustainability is essential for us at Manaly. Where possible, we use PEFC-certified wood and Veneto Wood, ensuring that the materials come from responsibly managed forests. This commitment allows us to guarantee full traceability of the wood, from the forest to the finished product, offering solutions that respect the environment and promote sustainable management of natural resources.

How CNC technology is revolutionizing carpentry for trade shows and events
In the field of carpentry for exhibition setups, the use of computer numerical control (CNC) machinery has taken customization to the next level. CNC machines allow wood to be cut, shaped, and engraved with precision that is impossible with traditional manual techniques. This type of technology not only speeds up production processes but also enables extremely complex work to be performed with perfect repeatability, ideal for creating custom stands.
Thanks to CNC technology, carpenters can create custom components perfectly adapted to the client’s design needs.
Another advantage of using CNC machines is the ability to produce rapid prototypes, which improves communication between designers and carpenters, as it allows for changes to be made before final production, ensuring the result fully meets expectations.
Synergy between designers and carpenters: the key to successful stands
Creating a successful custom stand requires close collaboration between designers and carpenters. While designers conceive the layout and visual appearance of the stand, carpenters are tasked with turning these ideas into real structures. This synergy between creativity and technical skill is essential to ensure that the stand is not only aesthetically appealing but also functional and structurally sound.
Our designers work closely with our carpenters to select the most suitable materials, define construction solutions, optimize the display space, and control costs and production times, without compromising on quality or creativity.
In a competitive industry like exhibition setups, the ability to create custom stands is a strategic advantage that can make all the difference in capturing attention and leaving a lasting impression on visitors.
