The people on this floor run warehouses and plants. They can tell a booth that was engineered from one that was decorated.
Fixed-price ProMat exhibits — design, fabrication, graphics, freight, union labour coordination, installation and dismantle in one number that doesn’t move. Pre-built, lit and photo-approved before it ships, so the booth that greets fifty thousand supply chain professionals in Chicago has already stood up once, powered and checked, on our floor.
Filters the booths below — every one shows its Chicago price.
ProMat draws the people who sign off on conveyors, AMRs, warehouse software and the integrators who tie them together — buyers who walk past a printed backwall without slowing down and stop dead for a machine that’s actually running. The work below is what we build for industrial, logistics and technology companies: structures designed around the live demo and the product on the floor, with every project moving through one team from first rendering to dismantle.

ProMat spreads across McCormick Place’s South, North and Lakeside halls — well over half a million square feet of exhibits, much of it heavy equipment that moves during show hours. Which building your space sits in decides your dock, your target move-in date and how far your freight travels once it’s inside. The most expensive ProMat mistake isn’t a bad booth; it’s a booth designed for a generic hall when the show gave you a specific one.
McCormick Place assigns freight target dates by building, and ProMat’s three-hall footprint means a truck routed to the wrong dock loses its slot. South’s giant contiguous halls, North’s link across the Grand Concourse and Lakeside’s older column grid each install differently. We plan crate weights, hanging-sign rigging and the marshalling-yard check-in to the hall on your contract, not to a render on a white background.
ProMat’s neighbours run live: automated storage, mobile robots, palletisers and forklifts operating inside their booths all day. That changes your sightlines, your noise floor and what your own demo has to do to compete. Buyers here expect product working — a sortation demo, a WMS dashboard on real screens, a robot cell you can stand next to — which means power drops sized for motors, not monitors, ordered at advance rates through the show and venue.
ProMat runs only in odd years, so most exhibitors haven’t stood on this floor in twenty-four months and staff have turned over since. The advance-order deadlines land in late February, right as annual budgets close and before spring travel starts. The real deadline for a locked design is the last week of February; after it, electrical, drayage and rigging move to floor rates.
Booth space, electrical, drayage, rigging and cleaning are billed to every exhibitor directly by the show, the venue or the show’s general contractor — no exhibit house can absorb them and none should claim to. What we do is calculate them for your exact booth before you commit, and file every order at advance rather than floor rates.
Trade show invoices have a habit of growing between quote and show: labour hours over estimate, revisions rebilled as change orders, graphics reprints, supervision time nobody flagged. Our model is the opposite — the number you approve is the number you pay, contractually. Design revisions are unlimited until you approve. The quote and the final invoice are the same document.
Design, fabrication, graphics, furniture, lighting, freight, installation, dismantle and project management in a single fixed price.
Your booth stands fully assembled and lit at our 65,000 sq ft facility, and you approve photographs of the actual build — not a render.
Space, electrical, drayage and rigging calculated for your exact booth before you commit — so the total is a number, not a range.
COI, EAC, electrical, network, rigging, freight windows — filed at advance rates, mapped to every exhibitor-manual deadline. Nothing lands on your desk three days before it’s due.
We quote higher and cost less. That’s the whole argument, and it’s why every booth below is published with its price rather than hidden behind a “request a quote” form.
Every booth below is priced for Chicago and available as a custom build for your brand — rented, not bought. Use the finder at the top of the page to narrow by size and budget.

The advance-order cutoff lands roughly eight weeks before the show — the exact date is in the facts strip at the top of this page, and it updates automatically each edition. For an April show that puts the binding constraint in the last days of February, when budget cycles close and the people who approve your booth are also approving everything else for the year.
Put these to every exhibit house you’re comparing — including us. They separate the vendors that stand behind a number from the ones whose estimate is an opening position. Our answers are printed here so you can hold us to them.
“They never just build the booth and disappear — I always know I have someone on call and ready to jump in when the unexpected inevitably happens. That level of responsiveness makes a huge difference in high-pressure event environments.”
“I’ve worked with Pure Exhibits for almost a year now, and have had such a great experience! They are our go-to for trade shows, and create memorable booths that represent our brand well. The team is incredibly responsive and reliable.”
“It’s always a pleasure to work with Utsav. The process is simple, straightforward, and high quality. I have worked with them for 3 years now and will continue!”
“Their team is incredibly flexible throughout the design process and truly collaborative in bringing ideas to life. I highly recommend Pure Exhibits to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and experienced exhibit partner.”
