What is a Maxima Exhibition Stand?
A Maxima exhibition stand (also widely known as Octanorm) is built from an aluminum profile system — modular yet customizable. Aluminum profiles come in fixed cut sizes; graphic panels, doors and shelves fit between them. Result: fast install + economical cost + custom visual appearance.
Sits between the reusability advantage of modular systems and the visual impact of custom builds. Octanorm is used globally as the standard system — we deliver it with premium custom graphics, integrated lighting and bespoke visual treatment.

When to Choose a Maxima/Octanorm System
Maxima is not always the right choice — but if one or more of the following matches your situation, the decision becomes clear:
Multi-show season
3+ shows per year on the same booth infrastructure. Reusing the profile across events with only graphic changes saves 50–60% total cost versus custom wood.
Budget-driven corporate
Premium look needed but budget capped under €400/sqm. Maxima delivers a custom appearance in the €180–320/sqm range.
Fast install required
Build-up restricted to 1–2 days (short trade shows, hotel/congress events). Standard profiles erect the structure in 6–8 hours.
Same identity across countries
Europe + Middle East + Turkey in the same season. Flat-pack profiles ship internationally, clear customs faster, and install on site quickly.
Flexible configuration
Same components reused as an 18 sqm L-shape at one show and a 36 sqm island at the next.
Sustainability mandate
Procurement scoring reuse rate. Maxima profiles remain in service across 8–10 show cycles — defensible in ESG reporting.

Frequently Asked Questions

In practice yes — both are aluminum profile systems. Octanorm is a German brand; Maxima is the equivalent system widely used in Turkey. Both work with the same install logic and panel/graphic integration.

Starts in €180-320/m² range (indicative). 40-50% more economical than custom wooden builds. Final price depends on graphics, lighting and tech integration.
Maxima or wooden — which to choose?
Wood for one-off premium impact; Maxima for multi-show participation where you change graphics each event. We calculate ROI based on your fair calendar.
