Trellidor’s show stand took top honours at Decorex Cape Town this year. The judges commented that Trellidor had produced a warm and inviting stand to showcase a very difficult product set.
We were delighted with the judges comments as this was a new concept stand for us. It will be used at all the major shows countrywide.
“We’re thrilled that it worked so well for show visitors and judges alike,” said Trellidor’s Kevin Bonner.
The show attracted 36 000 visitors this year. They were treated to a world-class event that encouraged them to source ideas to turn their homes into a blissful escape from our world of too much information and communication.
The Trellidor stand design
The Trellidor stand was designed to be accessed easily from any side. It has life-size, working samples of the full range of security barriers.
“We wanted visitors to be able to touch the products and operate them where possible. So they were able to open and close a Trellidor Rollerstyle shutter using a hand-held remote control and try out bi-fold Trellidor Clear Guard security screen door,” said Kevin.
Inviting lighting
Lighting played an important role in the stand’s success, with LED lights creating a warm glow, particularly under the central desk area. The desk was lit from below so it acted as a very convenient light box for those visitors that had brought their house plans with them to the show.
The branded pillars were also well-lit, making Trellidor easy to spot in the centre of the Cape Town International Convention Centre.
Tablets on the desk and plasma TV’s on the pillars played slide shows of installations of Trellidor barriers in homes around the country. Attack test videos give visitors a good idea of how the barriers stand up to assault.
Trellidor was commended for the staff on stand. They were all dressed neatly in corporate clothing, with name badges for easy communication. They are all well trained and knowledgeable, giving security advice when asked and doing Trellidor proud.
Trellidor had a 200% increase in visitors leaving their contact details and asking their nearest franchise to see them about their security requirements.
The show attracted residents of the Western Cape, holiday makers, and people with homes in both Cape Town and Johannesburg.
