Before investing in Guardian Display’s Versaform display system

Published on 03/09/2021

 

Before investing in Guardian Display’s Versaform display system, Bloch UK previously used stand contractors to produce a bespoke exhibition stand for each show they attended.

The Bloch team concluded that the “build and burn” nature of MDF-based stands was not beneficial. 

Attending several shows meant constantly reinvesting in one-off stands that cost tens of thousands of pounds to install, creating a financial dent they wanted to remedy. 

Our Versaform display system provided the solution they were seeking. 

It’s a modular system that can be manipulated and reconfigured to fit various stand spaces without buying a new stand for each event.

Stands use a variety of beams and arms that our professional stand fitters can quickly assemble in just a few hours. 

The savings we make on time and contracted labour costs are passed directly onto clients. 

That means we can offer some of the most competitive reinstallation prices in the industry for space only stand builds.

Due to previous issues with custom build stands, it was essential for the Bloch team to see their display stand before leaving for site. 

As we pre-build all of our stands at our showroom in Essex, we provided the peace of mind our clients wanted. 

The benefits of Versaform struck a chord with our client, and they decided to invest in the  3.5m high stand shown at the top of this page. 

Bloch UK gained ownership of all graphics and hardware. Their only future costs will be for installation and the storage of their kit. 

We created a 6m x 5m display for use at two different events; Move It at Olympia in London and Danza in Florence.

Move It targeted Bloch customers directly. 

It required a storage area for stock, two changing rooms with lockable doors, four reusable shelving units for the merchandise and five custom-made reusable hanging display units. All  complemented by a fully branded freestanding counter display.

The Danza show in Florence targeted wholesalers Bloch wanted to stock their products. 

We removed the changing rooms and placed the focus on the hanging display units and product shelving. 

Doing this created more space on the stand for speaking with potential stockists.

Both shows were highly successful for Bloch, and we have been working with them since 2015.
