Is flooring that important to an exhibit space?
Yes. Great exhibits are built on great flooring. Flooring not only helps infuse the design of the exhibit space from the ground up, but also sets the foundation to the functionality of your actual exhibit -- keeping the space sturdy or level.
Flooring also impacts the comfort of your booth personnel and attendees. For example, in a show with long exhibit hours, choosing 10’ Advantage carpet in a 30 oz – 50 oz face weight with Ultra Step padding will provide premium quality and comfort for those long hours of standing. You’ll be surprised at how often an attendee will step into your booth and immediately say, “Ahhh! Now this is a comfortable floor!”
The right attitude makes for an easier sale.
