Stand Construction Maritime Industry

Make your maritime product, service or innovation visible at Maritime Industry with a stand that speaks clearly to professionals in inland shipping.

What is the Maritime Industry trade fair?

Maritime Industry is the trade fair for inland shipping and the maritime sector. The event takes place on 2, 3 and 4 June 2026 at Evenementenhal Gorinchem and brings the inland shipping sector together every year to create new contacts, strengthen existing relationships and exchange knowledge. The organisation positions Maritime Industry as the number one trade fair for everyone with a passion for inland shipping.

During Maritime Industry, visitors discover new technologies, products and services for the inland shipping sector. The fair is built around discovery, innovation and connection. Topics include propulsion, drive systems, installations, shipbuilding, maintenance, finishing, safety, navigation, communication, services, trade, ports and infrastructure.

The 2026 edition is also the 20th edition of Maritime Industry. That makes it a strong moment for companies that want to increase their visibility in the sector. Stand construction for Maritime Industry is relevant for brands that want to present their products, services or innovations professionally to specialists from inland shipping and the wider maritime chain.

  • You immediately show what your brand stands for: reliability, craftsmanship, innovation and continuity.
  • You make technical products, installations or services easier for visitors to understand and assess.
  • You create space for product explanation, networking conversations, demonstrations and lead follow-up.
  • You can choose sustainable stand construction with flexible elements and reusable visuals.
  • You keep a clear overview because design, production, transport, build-up and dismantling are organised professionally.

Expert tip

Visitors at Maritime Industry come from a practical and relationship-driven sector. They want to see quickly whether your solution fits their vessel, yard, fleet, installation or daily operations. That is why your stand should make technology tangible. Work with clear product zones, strong visuals and concise messages around themes such as reliability, maintenance, safety, efficiency and innovation. This makes the conversation easier to start and more relevant from the first moment.

Your ideal partner for stand construction at Maritime Industry

Do you want to be professionally visible at Maritime Industry without coordinating every part of the process yourself? Making Events helps you create an exhibition stand that fits your brand, your solution and the maritime audience. We think along with you about appearance, layout, routing and practical use on the exhibition floor.

From the first briefing to design, production, transport, build-up and dismantling, you work with one involved stand construction partner. This allows you to focus on customers, relationships and new opportunities, while we make sure your stand is ready for three strong trade fair days in Gorinchem.

Modular Expo

With Modular Expo, you choose an exhibition stand that suits companies that are regularly visible in the maritime sector. The foundation remains recognisable, while individual parts can easily be adapted for a new trade fair, product group or campaign. This is useful when you want to present different solutions, such as propulsion, installation technology, safety or ship equipment.

For Maritime Industry, a modular setup is interesting because you can organise your stand practically with presentation walls, product areas and conversation zones. This allows you to combine a professional appearance with reuse, flexibility and better control over your investment.

Next Day Expo

Do you want to participate in Maritime Industry quickly while still presenting your brand properly? Next Day Expo is a smart choice. You work with fixed formats, clear pricing and fast delivery. This gives you a representative stand in a short time and makes your brand visible on the exhibition floor.

This solution works well for exhibitors who want a compact presence, want to show a specific product or need extra visibility in the inland shipping sector at short notice. The process stays manageable, while your stand still looks polished and professional.

Custom Expo

Some maritime solutions require a stand that is built fully around the product, technology or story. With Custom Expo, we translate your brand, technical solution and message into an exhibition stand that visitors understand quickly. Think of space for product presentations, demonstrations, hospitality, meeting areas or a striking eye-catcher.

For Maritime Industry, custom construction is a strong option if you want to underline your position in the sector or present a technical innovation convincingly. We make sure that form, function and message come together in a stand that looks professional and works well in practice.

Pavilion Expo

Are you participating with several brands, partners, regions or maritime specialists? Pavilion Expo provides a clear structure. We create one recognisable pavilion in which every participant remains visible, while the whole presentation feels calm and professional.

For Maritime Industry, this is suitable for collective presentations, industry initiatives, port-related collaborations or knowledge areas. With a smart layout, recognisable appearance and enough space for conversations, the pavilion becomes easy for visitors to understand.

Sustainable stand construction for Maritime Industry

Sustainable stand construction fits well with a sector that is continuously working on more efficient vessels, smarter technology and future-proof operations. Your exhibition stand can also show that you think carefully about materials, presentation and reuse.

Making Events works with reusable stand systems, sustainable materials and visuals that can be used again for future trade fair participation. Making Events also holds an ISO 26000 CSR certification. This means you choose an exhibition stand that presents your brand professionally and fits a practical, responsible way of building.

The costs of a stand for Maritime Industry

The budget for a stand at Maritime Industry depends on the scale and function of your presentation. A compact stand for relationship-focused conversations has different requirements than a larger setup with physical products, technical demos, storage space or hospitality.

Before we make a proposal, we look at what the stand needs to achieve for your company. Do you want to welcome existing customers, meet new contacts, present an innovation or strengthen your position in inland shipping? Those choices influence the layout, materials, level of customisation and practical facilities. Next Day Expo is a good route when speed and budget control are important. Modular Expo works well if you want reuse and flexibility. Custom Expo is the best fit when you need maximum freedom in appearance and experience.

Why choose Making Events?

Frequently asked questions about stand construction for Maritime Industry

What type of exhibition stand is suitable for Maritime Industry?

That depends on your goal. If your focus is relationship management or a compact presence, a fast stand solution can be sufficient. If you want to use the stand more often or adapt parts for different events, a modular setup is worth considering. If you want to present technology, physical products or a stronger brand experience in detail, custom construction is often the better route.

Can you design a stand that matches our maritime audience?

Yes. We translate your brand, product and target audience into an exhibition stand that fits Maritime Industry. We pay attention to clear product presentation, routing, conversation space, visuals and practical elements such as storage, reception or demonstrations.

Do you also handle the complete build-up and dismantling of the stand?

Yes. For Maritime Industry, we can organise the practical execution around your stand in Gorinchem. This includes preparing stand elements, aligning transport with the venue, building the stand according to the agreed plan and dismantling it after the fair. Reusable parts can be handled carefully so they remain suitable for a future event.

Is custom stand construction possible for Maritime Industry?

Yes. With Custom Expo, we develop a stand concept that matches your brand and trade fair goals. This is useful when you want to show a technical product, present an innovation, create space for demonstrations or build a stronger visual presence on the exhibition floor.

What does stand construction for Maritime Industry cost?

The price depends on the choices needed for your presentation. Stand area, product displays, finish, visuals, furniture, technical requirements, transport and on-site work all play a role. A stand built mainly for conversations will have a different cost structure than a setup with demos, hospitality or larger product elements. We create a tailored proposal so you can see which solution fits your plans and budget.
