Custom Trade Show System from CORNECT

Custom Exhibition System from CORNECT - An exhibition system that adapts to your presentation

CORNECT® is a modular trade show and presentation system designed for custom-designed brand displays. Aluminum frames in various sizes can be combined with graphic panels, lighting, and functional components to create trade show walls, mobile presentation areas, or complete trade show booths.

Depending on the desired effect, the design can feature unlit structures, backlit branding areas, or a combination of both. Straight and curved frame elements, fabric graphics, panel fillings, doors, shelves, counters, and other components offer a wide range of possibilities for designing a custom trade show booth.

The best layout for your booth depends on your floor space, the venue, the desired features, and your brand messaging. That’s why medienkraftwerk supports you with consulting, planning, design, print production, and project-specific implementation of your CORNECT® trade show booth.

What is the CORNECT® measurement system?

The CORNECT® exhibition system is based on modular aluminum profiles and pre-assembled frames. Different modules are connected using a sturdy joining system. This allows existing components to be reconfigured for new spaces, different floor plans, or changing display requirements.

Many key system connections are designed for quick and largely tool-free assembly. Depending on the design and the accessories used, however, some assembly tasks may still require tools. The steps involved in self-assembly are therefore outlined for each specific configuration.

There are various shapes and sizes to choose from. In addition to straight frames, curved elements can be used to create softer lines, rounded transitions, or open-plan booth designs. This allows the same system principles to be used to create a compact exhibition wall, an open corner booth, or a large-scale modular exhibition booth.

The frames can be fitted with printed fabric graphics, panels, and other fillers. Display panels can be swapped out for new campaigns, products, or events without necessarily having to replace the entire structure.

Doors, booths, built-in shelving, product displays, lighting, and other add-on elements round out the flexible trade show booth system. Additional frames and fixtures can be incorporated into future plans. This makes CORNECT® particularly well-suited for companies whose presentation spaces or communication needs change regularly.

CORNECT® SYSTEM50: Flexible Planning and Combination Options

CORNECT® SYSTEM50 provides a flexible foundation for modular exhibition walls, complete exhibition booths, and custom presentation solutions. The frame system includes various formats that can be connected to one another within a unified system concept.

Straight frames allow for clean wall surfaces, room dividers, and linear stand designs. Curved frame elements can create rounded shapes, smooth transitions, or eye-catching contours. By combining different sizes and shapes, SYSTEM50 can be adapted to the available floor plan and the desired visitor flow.

The frames can be equipped with fabric graphics, printed or custom-designed panels, and functional fixtures. Shelves, product displays, doors, and other add-ons can also be integrated, depending on the planned design. This allows SYSTEM50 to be used both as a standalone exhibition wall and as the foundation for a more comprehensive exhibition booth concept.

Another advantage is the flexibility it offers for future adjustments: Existing modules can be rearranged for future applications and supplemented with additional frames or accessories. The specific expansion is planned to fit the existing system and the new floor space.

CORNECT® SYSTEM170: Branded surfaces with integrated LED lighting

CORNECT® SYSTEM170 is designed for backlit display surfaces. The shallower frame construction provides space for integrated LED modules and ensures even light distribution behind the fabric graphic.

From the customer’s perspective, the backlighting ensures that key visuals, products, and brand messages are clearly visible even in a busy trade show environment. Colors, contrasts, and images achieve a strong visual presence without the need to place additional spotlights in front of the graphic display.

Depending on the booth design, illuminated surfaces can be planned for use on one side or both sides. A single-sided design is suitable, for example, for an illuminated back wall. Double-sided surfaces are a good choice when a freestanding element is intended to be visible from multiple viewing angles.

SYSTEM170 can be combined with SYSTEM50. This means that not all display areas need to be backlit. Lighting can be used strategically to highlight a key visual, a logo, a product message, or a central communication area.

In addition to traditional trade show appearances, the system is ideal for showrooms, product presentations, and retail spaces. An illuminated trade show booth or a freestanding LED display wall can serve as a reusable stage for changing visual content.

Combining SYSTEM50 and SYSTEM170 within a trade show booth

A CORNECT® exhibition booth can combine unlit SYSTEM50 modules and illuminated SYSTEM170 frames within a single booth design. In this way, lighting is not an end in itself, but is used strategically as a design element for key brand and communication areas.

Possible combinations include, for example:

• an unlit back panel with an integrated, backlit key visual,
• a modular trade show booth with a centrally lit brand display area,
• a reception area with a counter and eye-catching illuminated graphics,
• an integrated booth with a door and an adjacent display wall,
• an open corner booth layout with clear visitor flow,
• a product presentation featuring shelves or individual product shots,
• a freestanding light box designed on one or both sides,
• Different configurations for varying booth sizes and events.

Which areas are illuminated and which sections are implemented using SYSTEM50 depends on the desired visual impact from a distance, the budget, the floor plan, and the functional requirements. medienkraftwerk coordinates the components so that the design, graphics, and furnishings come together to form a cohesive whole.

Customize and Configure Your CORNECT® Booth

Every trade show appearance has different requirements. That’s why CORNECT® isn’t offered as a one-size-fits-all package, but is tailored to the booth space, the desired brand impact, and the planned applications.

The planning process begins with the available space and the floor plan. A row booth requires a different approach to engaging visitors than a corner booth, end booth, or island booth. Sightlines, open sides, entrances, conversation areas, product display areas, and required storage space all influence the final configuration.

Depending on the project, the following components, among others, may be included in the plan:

• Booth size and floor plan,
• Row booth, corner booth, end booth, or island booth,
• straight and curved frames,
• illuminated and unilluminated areas,
• interchangeable fabric graphics,
• printed or decorated panel fillings,
• Doors and separate compartments,
• Shelves and custom product shots,
• Reception, consultation, or promotional counters,
• Flooring solutions,
• additional lighting,
• Cable management and power distribution,
• Transportation and warehousing solutions,
• project-specific implementation support,
• Graphic design and print production.

When designing an exhibition booth for varying booth sizes, the planning process already takes into account which components are to be used in multiple configurations. For example, a larger configuration can be planned for a major trade show, and a more compact version for regional events.

Even a trade show booth designed for self-assembly must be suited to the specific structure and the available staff. medienkraftwerk will work with you to determine which modules to use, how the graphic panels should be arranged, and which transportation, assembly, or support services are best suited for your events.
