DISPLAY INTERNATIONAL Shanghai

Interior finishing and
Exhibition Stand Building in China

Our branch in Shanghai was founded in 2012 and, with its employees in administration on the spot, it is ideally connected to our headquarters in Würselen.

The office premises are in the same building as the headquarters of our Chinese partner. This guarantees short communication routes and the efficient processing of all projects on the Asian continent.

Partnership with Ambrosius Exhibition Design and Building (Shanghai) Co. Ltd.

DISPLAY INTERNATIONAL and Ambrosius Exhibition Design and Building (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. have been cooperation partners since 2019.

The two, long-established giants in international exhibition stand building work hand in hand to further optimise their services for their globally operating clientele.

As an exhibition stand builder, Display International realises orders of Ambrosius China in Europe and North America, where as the Chinese partner implements DI exhibition stand building projects in Asia.

Advantages for Clients and Partners in International Exhibition Stand Building and Interior Finishing

The main synergistic effects are found in each partner being able to use the other’s resources. Large production and storage halls, both here and there, ensure ideal conditions for manufacture and logistics. Local knowledge, experience and expertise create tremendous added value for everyone.
Another plus comes from the strengthening of intercultural skills: From project management through design, right up to production and assembly, the customer receives excellent support on-site - without any language barriers or time difference.

Our In-House Production for Exhibition
Stand Building and Interior Finishing

Joinery

Our employees carry out wood and furniture work professionally and with in-depth knowledge in our own joinery. Our machinery, optimised for exhibition stand building, guarantees short reaction times in critical construction phases. Our experienced master joiners/technicians and their production teams take care of our durable interior finishing in close coordination with external partners.  

Metalworking Shop

Our metalworking shop has its own building on the company site in Würselen. In addition to general metalworking, technical management administers more than 700 tons of its own steel for the system construction of the often several-storey exhibition stands and interior finishing.

Paint Shop

Our own paint shop at our site in Würselen reliably covers all of the required paint projects, before and after the construction phases – in this way, our painters and their trade make a major contribution to the efficient production chain in our company.

Electrical Department

The electrical department is involved in planning at an early stage in all exhibition stand building and interior finishing projects. Our electrical experts assess architecture concepts, premises and exhibition stagings for feasibility and check the associated work. Our electrical fitters ensure the smooth installation of all components at the construction sites and conscientiously instruct our partner companies.

Graphics Workshop

Graphics of all kinds play a central role, especially in exhibition stand building and in the entire staging. Films, fabric coverings, prints on PVC banners, but also the highly individual production of 3-D solutions are everyday business at DI. The graphics team will answer all of your questions with respect to materials and the manufacturing process - we are extremely familiar with your print data. For the finishing touches, expert employees and fitters are on site with our partners at all construction sites.
