Rigging, Stage Technology, and Power for Trade Shows and Events
Professional rigging and stage technology, together with a reliable power supply, form the cornerstone of every successful event. Only when trusses are installed with millimeter precision, stage surfaces are perfectly level, and sensitive media systems are protected against power outages will your trade show booth captivate visitors. AVMS reliably provides you with this structural and technical foundation from a single source. As an experienced, certified event technology company, we combine tested truss systems, modular platforms, and modern CEE power networks into a customized, comprehensive solution. From our locations in Potsdam/Berlin, Frankfurt, Hanover, and Zurich, we support you throughout Europe in the safe execution of your projects.
Rigging and Trusses for Sophisticated Trade Show Booths
The combination of suspension points, motors, and trusses forms the foundation of the entire visual concept in modern trade show design. From this suspended structure, we perfectly showcase your messages with custom lighting design. At the same time, we suspend large LED walls or install advertising banners visible from a distance.
Suspension Point Service, Load Calculation, and Verifiable Structural Analysis
With ceiling structures spanning several hundred meters, hall suspensions can quickly reach weights of several metric tons. That is why structural safety is our top priority. Temporary event structures are classified as “temporary structures” under building codes and require thorough planning.
Our riggers and master supervisors will handle all the permitting and planning for your venue:
Detailed rigging plans: Precise measurement of all suspension points within the hall grid.
Point Load Calculations: Reliable determination of static loads for each suspension point.
Verifiable structural analyses: Complete documentation and direct coordination with the exhibition company’s technical hall service.
Modular Truss Systems and Ground Supports
We rely on high-quality truss systems from the market leaders Prolyte and Global Truss. Our inventory of equipment flexibly meets all requirements for trade show construction:
2-point to heavy-duty trusses: Available in silver and black for lightweight decorative frames or wide spans without distracting intermediate supports.
Ground-support systems: Self-supporting tower and strut systems, in cases where the hall ceiling does not allow for suspension points.
D8 and D8-Plus electric chain hoists: Powerful motors for the safe lifting of loads weighing several metric tons.
Professional stage technology and modular platforms for trade shows, conventions, and events
Whether it’s a product presentation, a keynote speech, or a VIP lounge: Modern stage technology puts performers and exhibits in the spotlight. At the same time, stage areas must be quick to set up and flexible to reconfigure. AVMS offers proven podium systems and space solutions that are specifically tailored to the requirements of trade shows, exhibitions, meetings, and conferences.
Plug-in and scissor-type platforms for any room height
Various podium options are available for temporary event spaces:
Plug-in base platforms: Using tool-free interchangeable feet or continuously adjustable telescoping legs, we can adjust the stage height with millimeter precision to compensate for uneven floors.
Scissor-lift platforms: Quick height adjustment in fixed increments for a variety of indoor applications.
Flooring & Safety: Equipped with screen-printed panels, real wood parquet, laminate, or carpet, as well as standard-compliant handrails, stairs, and accessible ramps.
Flexible room partitioning with Wentex® Pipe & Drape and beMatrix
Clear layouts and quiet, secluded areas enhance any trade show booth:
Wentex® Pipe & Drape: This freestanding curtain system quickly creates opaque partitions to separate backstage areas, dressing rooms, and catering routes.
beMatrix System Walls: For permanent room dividers, we attach printed fabric panels or other panels directly to the beMatrix frame system. This creates a seamless transition to our modern LED modules.
Power Supply at Events: Uninterrupted and DGUV-Certified
Modern media technology requires an uncompromisingly stable power supply. High-performance LED walls, moving lights, and sophisticated production equipment generate high inrush currents and are sensitive to power fluctuations. AVMS designs and installs power distribution systems that comply with industry standards to ensure your event runs without interruption.
Selective Power Distributors and cPOT Grounding
Our electrical infrastructure meets the highest industrial safety standards:
Selective Protection via RCBO: Our CEE distribution panels protect each branch circuit with its own combined RCD/circuit breaker. If a single device trips, the rest of the exhibition booth continues to operate without interruption.
Patented cPOT Grounding System: We use the Connex cPOT system to reliably ground trusses and stage structures. This protects against touch voltages and prevents ground loops in audio equipment.
Regular DGUV V3 Inspections: All cables, power strips, and adapters are inspected by our qualified personnel in accordance with DGUV Regulation 3 before each use.
UPS Backup Power and Portable Generators
For particularly critical applications, we provide redundant emergency systems:
UPS Systems: Uninterruptible power supplies protect control rooms and media servers from voltage sags in the facility’s electrical grid.
Power Generators: For outdoor events or open spaces, we supply sound-insulated generators and portable storage units to provide a self-sufficient power supply.
