    10. How long does booth construction take?
    Custom booth production usually takes 1–2 weeks, plus time for design approval. We recommend starting early to allow time for revisions, permits, and logistics.
    11. What materials are best for building a FETC booth?
    We use aluminum systems, tension fabric, laminated wood, acrylics, and LED panels. These are light, strong, and fire-rated. They also allow quick setup and clean finishes. All materials follow venue safety codes.

    • Open lounge-style layouts
    We help integrate engagement without overloading the space.
    14. Do you offer booth storage after FETC?
    Yes. We store booths in our Las Vegas warehouse. After the show, we inspect, repack, and store your structure and graphics safely. This saves cost on rebuilds and keeps your assets ready for the next event.
    15. Can I reuse my FETC booth?
    Definitely. We build modular structures that can be adapted and reused at other shows. You can change graphics, resize elements, or upgrade tech without starting from scratch.
    16. What’s the difference between rental and custom booths?
    Custom booths are designed from scratch and offer full creative freedom. Rentals are quicker and budget-friendly—ideal for first-time or limited-budget exhibitors. We offer both, and help you choose based on your needs.

    Bring:
    • Brochures or flyers

    19. How should I follow up after the show?
    Follow up fast—within 3–5 days. Thank visitors, attach brochures, and mention your booth. We help set up digital lead capture so you can export and contact everyone smoothly.
