Carpet for Exhibitors at Fira de Barcelona

Exhibiting at Fira de Barcelona? Disstands supplies stand carpet to hundreds of exhibitors every season at both venues — Gran Via in L'Hospitalet, one of Europe's largest exhibition centres with over 240,000 m² of floor space, and the historic Montjuïc venue. Fira de Barcelona is itself one of our clients, alongside brands like Google, Porsche and FC Barcelona.

The shows we know inside out

Our teams work every edition of Mobile World Congress (MWC), ISE — Integrated Systems Europe, Smart City Expo World Congress, Alimentaria, Hostelco and Barcelona Building Construmat, among many others. That means we know the venues' access gates, freight schedules, build-up windows and inspection requirements in detail — knowledge that saves international exhibitors real time and stress.

How the service works

• 1. Send your stand plan — dimensions, colour reference (or your brand's Pantone) and the show name.
• 2. We quote in English — material, cutting, delivery to the venue and optional installation, within one business day.
• 3. Delivery during build-up — cut-to-size rolls delivered to your stand number on the agreed day. During fair build-up periods we offer express delivery from our local warehouse.
• 4. Installation (optional) — our fitters lay the carpet, tape the seams and leave the floor protected with film until opening day.

Recommended carpets for Fira de Barcelona stands

Every reference carries the Bfl-s1 fire certification required by Fira de Barcelona, and we keep the most demanded colours in permanent stock a few minutes from both venues.

Gran Via or Montjuïc: what changes for your stand

The two venues behave differently, and the floor plan should account for it. Gran Via is a modern logistics machine: eight halls, wide freight corridors and strict unloading slots. Deliveries are efficient but tightly scheduled, so the carpet must arrive within your assigned window — which is exactly what a local supplier guarantees. Montjuïc, the historic venue at Plaça d'Espanya, trades that efficiency for character: palatial buildings, less uniform floor surfaces and tighter access for trucks. There we recommend allowing extra time for delivery and, on uneven older floors, choosing a slightly heavier carpet grade that sits flat without telegraphing every irregularity underneath. Our fitters work in both venues every season and plan each job accordingly.

Recommendations by show

Every event has its own floor logic. At MWC, where stands are dense with demo stations and meeting rooms, most exhibitors choose neutral greys and anthracites with brand-colour accents — and order early, because build-up windows are the tightest of the year. At Alimentaria and Hostelco, food and drink are everywhere: dark or jaspe (marbled) tones forgive spills between cleanings and still look sharp on the final day. At ISE, with its darkened demo areas, matte dark carpet reduces light reflection around screens. And at Smart City Expo, where sustainability is the theme itself, exhibitors increasingly specify our recyclable range so the stand practises what the sector preaches. Whatever the show, we keep the season's most demanded colours in local stock.

Build-up day at Fira: how the delivery actually works

International exhibitors are often surprised by how regimented build-up is at a venue of this scale. Freight arrives through assigned gates, in booked time slots, and every crew member needs accreditation. Our routine absorbs all of it: the carpet leaves our Barcelona warehouse cut to your stand's measurements, labelled with hall and stand number, and enters the venue inside our own slot — you or your stand-builder simply receive it at the stand. If we install, the team lays the carpet, tapes the seams, and covers everything with protective film so the rest of the build can continue on top; the film comes off hours before opening, and the floor underneath is immaculate. During peak build-up periods we run express deliveries from the local warehouse for the inevitable last-minute surprises: a design change, a stained roll from another supplier, an extra meeting room that appeared overnight.

Aisles and common areas for organisers

Beyond individual stands, we supply and fit carpet for aisles, registration areas, VIP lounges and press rooms — the surfaces that define how an event feels the moment visitors walk in. Organiser-scale projects run on volume pricing, phased delivery synchronised with hall availability, and crews working overnight so halls transform between build-up phases. If you are organising a congress or corporate event at Fira de Barcelona or the CCIB, ask for a venue-scale quote.

Sustainability requirements at Fira de Barcelona

Major shows at Fira de Barcelona increasingly ask exhibitors for recyclable materials. As pioneers in Catalonia with official factory distribution of 100% recyclable eco carpet, we can document the recyclability of your stand's floor for the organiser — and collect the carpet after the show for recycling, closing the loop instead of sending the material to landfill. Learn more on our recyclable exhibition carpet page.

Your ordering checklist

• Stand dimensions and layout — total m², plus any raised platforms or cut-outs for furniture and displays.
• Hall and stand number — so the delivery is labelled and routed correctly inside the venue.
• Colour reference — a name from our range or your brand's Pantone for matching.
• Build-up slot — date and time window assigned by the organiser.
• Installation or delivery only — tell us whether your stand-builder lays the floor or our fitters should.

With those five details we return a complete quote within one business day — material, cutting, delivery inside the venue and installation if requested. If the organiser's technical file confuses you (they often do), forward it to us and we will pull out the parts that matter for the floor.
