Trade Show Carpet
Our premium-grade carpets provide luxury and durability for high-traffic trade shows. Available in multiple weights (16 oz Classic to 50 oz Majestic) and colors, these carpets withstand heavy use while maintaining a polished appearance. Custom inlay options allow branding integration, ensuring your booth stands out. All carpets are packaged securely for damage-free delivery.
Rollable Vinyl Flooring
Durable, spill-resistant vinyl flooring offers versatile design options for events. Choose from 21 stocked styles, including textured and patterned finishes, with nationwide fast shipping. Our vinyl products are tubed and skidded for secure transport, ensuring they arrive ready for immediate installation in any exhibit space.
EZDown Planks
Realistic hardwood-look vinyl planks combine affordability with stability for trade shows. The rubberized backing prevents slippage, while waterproof, phthalate-free materials ensure safety and longevity. Each plank measures 9.85" x 41.3" for easy installation over padding or raised flooring systems like our Envirodeck Metric.
Raised Flooring Systems
Our Envirodeck Metric raised flooring system enables seamless wire management and surface customization. These 19.6" x 19.6" tiles feature removable cord covers and ADA-compliant ramps, supporting vinyl, carpet, or plank installations. The lightweight, recyclable design accommodates vehicle traffic with proper planning.
Artificial Grass
Eco-friendly artificial grass options suit indoor and outdoor events. Choose between Putt Nylon (3/4" blade) for high-traffic areas or 50 oz Landscaping Grass (1.75" blade) for visual impact. Both options ship in 15-foot widths, with quantities determined by booth dimensions for complete coverage.
