2. When should I start planning for TISE?

It’s best to start planning for TISE (The International Surface Event) several months in advance, especially if you intend to exhibit.

Key activities like securing your booth, developing marketing materials, and planning logistics (travel, accommodation) should begin early. TISE often releases exhibitor resources and invites buyers well ahead of time, allowing for a 365-day approach to marketing your presence at the event. For specific deadlines, always refer to the official TISE website for the year you plan to attend.

3. What’s the process to register for TISE?

Registering for TISE (The International Surface Event) usually involves these steps:

  1. Visit the official TISE website: This is where registration opens annually, often several months before the event.
  2. Choose your pass type: TISE offers various registration packages, such as an “Expo Pass” for exhibit hall access and a “Premier Package” that includes educational sessions.
  3. Complete the online registration form: You’ll provide your contact information and company details.
  4. Pay the registration fee: Fees vary based on the pass type and whether you register during early bird periods or as a member of an industry association.
  5. Receive confirmation: After successful registration, you’ll get a confirmation email with details on how to get your badge.

Exhibitor staff generally register through their company’s Exhibitor Resource Center.

4. Quali documenti o informazioni devo preparare?

To register for TISE, you’ll generally need your full name, contact information (email, phone), and company details (name, address, industry type). You’ll also need a payment method for registration fees. If you’re a member of an industry association, have your membership details ready for potential discounts. Since TISE is a trade-only event, be prepared to provide information that demonstrates your professional affiliation with the industry.

5. Quando posso entrare e allestire il mio stand?

The move-in and set-up schedule for exhibitor booths at TISE is typically released in the early fall leading up to the event. This detailed Exhibitor Service Manual will be available in your exhibitor dashboard. It’s crucial to check this manual for specific dates and times, as TISE works to create the most efficient schedule possible.

6. What are the booth design regulations at TISE?

TISE has specific booth design regulations to ensure a cohesive and professional show floor. Key regulations typically include:

  • Height restrictions: Generally, 8ft is allowed along the back wall, with 4ft or 5ft height restrictions for the front portion of the booth. Island booths often have higher maximums (e.g., 20-24ft).
  • Finished surfaces: The backs of all walls facing neighboring booths or aisles must be clean, neutral, and finished to a high standard, clear of wires.
  • Protrusions: No exhibits, structures, or displays can protrude beyond your contracted booth perimeter into aisles.
  • Hanging signs: Usually only allowed in island booths, with specific height and placement rules.
  • Carpeting: Booth space generally requires carpeting or suitable flooring.
  • Structural integrity: Booths must be safely designed and constructed.

Always consult the official TISE Exhibitor Service Manual for detailed and up-to-date rules specific to the year you are exhibiting.

7. How do I design a booth that stands out at TISE?

To make your TISE booth stand out:

  • Go bold with branding: Use strong, consistent colors and high-quality graphics that clearly communicate your brand and what you offer from a distance. Make your logo prominent.
  • Incorporate interactivity: Engage visitors with touchscreens, product demos, VR/AR experiences, or even fun games. Hands-on activities create memorable impressions.
  • Optimize lighting: Use strategic lighting to highlight key products or messaging and create an inviting atmosphere.
  • Design for flow and comfort: Ensure an open, welcoming layout that encourages visitors to enter and linger. Consider comfortable seating or charging stations.
  • Focus on a single, clear message: Avoid clutter. Your booth should instantly convey your unique selling proposition.
  • Leverage technology: Large screens, digital brochures, and social media integration can modernize your presence.
8. What booth sizes are most effective at TISE?

The “most effective” booth size depends on your goals and budget.

  • 10’x10′ (lineare/in linea): Cost-effective, good for single product focus or lead collection.
  • 10’x20′ or 10’x30′ (Linear/Inline): More space for multiple products, demos, and seating. 10’x20′ is very common.
  • 20’x20′ or larger (Peninsula/Island): Offer maximum visibility, space for extensive displays, private meetings, and interactive experiences.1 Allows for higher structures and hanging signs.
     

Consider staff size and desired interaction when choosing.

9. Can you help with custom booth design for TISE?
Yes. Our in-house team handles creative concepts, technical drawings, and final 3D renders. We align the design with your product, target audience, and TISE guidelines. Every detail—from materials to lighting—is tailored to deliver impact.
10. Quanto tempo occorre per allestire uno stand?
La realizzazione di stand personalizzati richiede solitamente 1–2 settimane, a cui va aggiunto il tempo necessario per l’approvazione del progetto. Consigliamo di iniziare con largo anticipo per avere tempo a disposizione per eventuali revisioni, il rilascio dei permessi e la logistica.
11. What materials are best for building a TISE booth?
Utilizziamo sistemi in alluminio, tessuti a tensione, legno lamellare, acrilico e pannelli LED. Si tratta di materiali leggeri, resistenti e ignifughi, che consentono inoltre un montaggio rapido e finiture pulite. Tutti i materiali sono conformi alle norme di sicurezza della struttura.
12. Siete in grado di occuparvi del montaggio e dello smontaggio?
Sì. Ci occupiamo noi di gestire tutte le richieste di manodopera e la pianificazione. Il nostro team, certificato dal sindacato, allestisce tutto — dalla struttura all’illuminazione — in loco e nei tempi previsti. Al termine dell’evento, smontiamo e imballiamo il tutto in modo efficiente. Voi non dovrete muovere un dito.
13. Come posso rendere il mio stand più accattivante?
Utilizza elementi di movimento o interazione per attirare l’attenzione. Prova:
  • Schermi video a LED
  • Dimostrazioni su touchscreen
  • Prove pratiche dei prodotti o realtà virtuale (VR)
  • Omaggi promozionali con il marchio
  • Allestimenti aperti in stile lounge
Ti aiutiamo a integrare elementi di coinvolgimento senza sovraccaricare lo spazio.
14. Do you offer booth storage after TISE?
Sì. Conserviamo gli stand nel nostro magazzino di Las Vegas. Al termine della fiera, ispezioniamo, reimballiamo e conserviamo in modo sicuro la vostra struttura e la grafica. Questo vi permette di risparmiare sui costi di rimontaggio e di avere il vostro materiale pronto per il prossimo evento.
15. Can I reuse my TISE booth?
Certamente. Realizziamo strutture modulari che possono essere adattate e riutilizzate in altre fiere. È possibile modificare la grafica, ridimensionare gli elementi o aggiornare la tecnologia senza dover ricominciare da zero.
16. Qual è la differenza tra stand a noleggio e stand su misura?
Gli stand personalizzati vengono progettati da zero e offrono piena libertà creativa. Il noleggio è più veloce e conveniente, ideale per chi espone per la prima volta o ha un budget limitato. Offriamo entrambe le soluzioni e ti aiutiamo a scegliere in base alle tue esigenze.
17. Cosa devo portare alla mostra?
Da portare:
  • Opuscoli o volantini
  • Biglietti da visita
  • Caricabatterie, cavi, adattatori
  • Scanner per la raccolta dei dati o moduli
  • Articoli promozionali (omaggi)
Ti forniremo una checklist completa per non dimenticare nulla.
18. Di quanti addetti ho bisogno nello stand?
Consigliamo 2-3 persone per turno. Una persona accoglie i visitatori, un’altra presenta il prodotto e un’altra ancora raccoglie i contatti. È bene alternarsi regolarmente per evitare l’affaticamento. Progettiamo gli stand in modo da favorire i movimenti del team e conversazioni confortevoli.
19. Come dovrei comportarmi dopo la fiera?
Rispondi rapidamente, entro 3-5 giorni. Ringrazia i visitatori, allega gli opuscoli e menziona il tuo stand. Ti aiutiamo a configurare un sistema digitale di acquisizione dei contatti, così potrai esportare i dati e contattare tutti senza intoppi.
20. I'm new to TISE. Can someone help guide me?
Sì. Avrai a disposizione un project manager dedicato che ti assisterà prima, durante e dopo l’evento. Ci occupiamo noi della progettazione, dell’allestimento, del trasporto, delle norme sindacali e delle emergenze, così potrai concentrarti sulla tua attività.
