Discover our technical partners | Prostand and Pointex
Prostand, part of Italian Exhibition Group, designs and builds exhibition and congress setups worldwide, offering solutions both for individual exhibitors and as a general contractor for event organizers. With over 30 years of experience, Prostand is the first Italian company in the sector to achieve net-zero CO₂ emissions, a goal reached not only through reuse and recycling practices, but also by offsetting residual emissions through the purchase of carbon credits.
Pointex has been bringing creativity and innovation to the event industry for over 30 years. Our flame-retardant and sustainable fabrics turn exhibitions and shows into unique visual experiences. We work alongside designers, fitters, and organizers to shape spaces that tell stories of emotion and the future.
The Textil District area was created thanks to the collaboration between Prostand - using the new SG01 system, a reusable aluminum load-bearing shell—and Pointex, supplier of EASYTEX: a 3D, flame-retardant, 100% polyester fabric that is fully recyclable and highly scenic. The fabric will be recycled at the end of the event.
Thanks to a sophisticated inner cavity, the structure allows for the integration of accessories and technology supports. The innovations of Prostand and Pointex come together in a sustainable, elegant, and replicable solution that you can experience firsthand at Ecomondo.
