A Message from Our MD, Mark
"I started CBE with a simple goal: to make exhibition experiences better—not just for visitors, but for the people behind the brand. Too often, I saw businesses let down by poor communication, cookie-cutter designs, or last-minute headaches. I knew we could do better."
"From day one, I wanted CBE to be a business that felt personal. That’s why we keep everything in-house, stay hands-on with every project, and treat our clients like partners. We’re still a family-run company, and I’m still here day-to-day—leading the team, walking the workshop floor, and making sure every stand we deliver is something we’re proud to put our name on."
"We’re not just building stands. We’re building trust, one project at a time."
– Mark, Managing Director
Sustainability at CBE
At CBE, we believe that building for the future means being responsible with the present. Sustainability isn’t an add‑on — it’s woven through everything we do, from material choices to manufacturing methods.
Responsible sourcing
All our wood is supplied by trusted sources like Hanson Plywood, whose environmental policy emphasises sustainable forest products, renewable natural resources, and legally‑verified timber. Their commitment includes third‑party certifications (FSC®, PEFC, FLEGT) and a certified chain of custody so we know the materials we use support healthy forests and ethical trade.
Reusable, modular design
We design stands and interiors that can be reused, reconfigured, or repurposed. This reduces waste, minimises material consumption, and gives you more value over time without compromising on visual impact or quality.
In‑house production to reduce emissions
From joinery and printing to graphics and install, everything is done in‑house. This reduces transportation between multiple suppliers and helps us monitor energy use and resource efficiency at every stage.
Reducing carbon footprint & operational waste
We track and manage emissions across our operations, from energy usage to delivery. Inspired by suppliers like Hanson Plywood, who report on solar power generation, electric vehicles in their fleet, and high levels of operational recycling (86% of waste recycled in their 2024 operations).
Certifications & continuous improvement
We strive for environmental standards and certifications. As our business grows, we look for ways to improve: better materials, smarter production, and more sustainable energy usage. Our partners set a strong example, by being certified to ISO 14001, measuring carbon footprints, and implementing electric and renewable energy solutions.

What We Do
Stands that fit around you
Custom-Built
Stands
Looking for something totally unique? We can build it from scratch – right here in Halifax. It might be a one-off, or something we store and reuse for future shows. Either way, it’s built to last.
Modular
Stands
Doing a few shows this year? Modular setups are great if you want flexibility. They look the part, work with your budget, and can be switched up for each event.
Hire or Buy – Your Choice
We’ve got loads of kit ready to go. Use what you need, when you need it – no need to buy it all outright (unless you want to).
Stands Under £10k? Absolutely.
Just getting started? We’ve delivered loads of great-looking stands for under £10,000 – and they can grow with you as your business and budget grows.
