What we do

A trade partner for design, build and installation

Redblu is a trade exhibition stand partner. We design, manufacture and install stands under your brand, so you can take on shows you can't deliver yourself. That might be extra capacity, a specialist modular build, or a stand in Scotland without shipping kit and sending a crew.

You own the client relationship. We deliver the work, and the recognition remains yours.

How we work

How we work with trade partners

Handing a client's project to a supplier takes trust. This is how we earn it on every build.

3D design icon

Concept and design from your brief

Send us the brief and we develop the concept, 3D visuals and spatial plan.

Build icon

Your design, made buildable

Already have a design? We engineer it to run on our modular systems, with the construction detail and production drawings prepared for you.

Brief icon

Documentation under your brand

Brief documents are branded for your client. We prepare the RAMS and CDM approval-to-build documents, then either submit them or hand them to your team.

Delivery icon

Full service delivery

Design, manufacture, graphics, installation and dismantle, managed by Redblu from first concept to final breakdown.

Premium quality icon

Your client stays your client

We work under NDA and agree non-solicitation terms, so the client relationship stays with you.

Strategic thinking icon

Built for the long term

We build lasting partnerships that work for both sides.

Partnership levels

Choose the level of support you need

You don't need to outsource an entire project. Engage us for design, technical development, build, full delivery or local installation, at whichever stage suits you.

Design Partner

Design Partner

You hold the client and the brief. We develop the creative, from concept and 3D visualisation to spatial planning and brand implementation. Ideal when you need additional design capacity.

Technical Partner

Technical Partner

You have the design. We engineer it for production on our modular systems, providing technical development, construction detailing and production drawings.

Build Partner

Build Partner

You have the project. We manufacture and deliver the stand. Ideal when your own production capacity is full or the stand requires specialist modular expertise.

Full Delivery Partner

Full Delivery Partner

Local Delivery Partner

A UK installation crew for your stand in Scotland or the south of England, supplied from our Glasgow and Hampshire depots, with no need to send your own team or ship your kit.

Not sure which level?

Tell us what you need help with, whether it's a single stand next month or a full show programme, and we will recommend the right level of support.

Why subcontract locally

Why subcontract the build to a local team

Delivering a stand away from your own base costs more than the stand itself. Freight, crew travel and accommodation, days on site for build, show and breakdown, and the journey home all add up.

With depots in Glasgow (HQ) and Hampshire, we build and install locally, so you can win and deliver shows in places you don't operate. That includes smaller-budget stands in Scotland for global agencies running events elsewhere.
