It has to support the brand, welcome visitors, work well for the team on site and reflect the choices a company makes behind the scenes. For Ophtec, sustainability is an important part of that story. The company shared how its approach is guided by the pillars Clean, Smart and Responsible, from daily processes and product design to material choices and the way its booth is built for congresses. Bano was proud to realise the stand and even prouder to see it recognised with a Sustainable Stand Award. ## A stand that reflects the brand behind it A good exhibition stand should feel like a natural extension of the organisation. In this case, the stand was not just a physical presence at an event. It was part of a wider message about responsible choices, smarter ways of working and reducing impact where possible. That makes the role of stand production more important. The technical and practical execution has to match the ambition of the client. Materials, build quality, planning, finishing and on site delivery all contribute to the final result. ## Practical stand production for international events For companies attending congresses, exhibitions and business events in Europe, reliable local production support is essential. The concept may start with a brand story, but it only works when the stand is built properly, delivered on time and ready for the team to use. Bano supports international clients with exhibition stand production, event technology and on site execution. From modular stand systems and AV integration to lighting, screens and technical support, the goal is always the same: a stand that works in practice and represents the brand professionally. ## Recognition through the Sustainable Stand Award The Sustainable Stand Award is a valuable recognition of the choices made by Ophtec and the way those choices were translated into a congress booth. For Bano, it is also a strong example of how stand production can support more responsible event participation. Sustainability in exhibitions is not only about one material or one design decision. It is about making better choices throughout the process and creating a stand that is useful, professional and aligned with the organisation behind it. ## Exhibition stand partner for congresses and trade shows in Europe This project shows how Bano helps companies bring their brand to life at international events. Whether it is a medical congress, trade show, corporate event or exhibition in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe, the right production partner makes the process easier and the result stronger. For international organisations looking for a practical exhibition stand partner in Europe, the Ophtec stand is a strong example of how brand, sustainability and professional production can come together. - [**](https://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.bano.nl/en/sustainable-exhibition-stand-production-for-ophtec-bano) - [**](https://twitter.com/share?text=Sustainable%20Exhibition%20Stand%20Production%20for%20Ophtec%20|%20Bano&url=https://www.bano.nl/en/sustainable-exhibition-stand-production-for-ophtec-bano&hashtags=weareawesome&via=bluleadz) - [**](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://www.bano.nl/en/sustainable-exhibition-stand-production-for-ophtec-bano) - [**](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.bano.nl/en/sustainable-exhibition-stand-production-for-ophtec-bano&media=https://6104253.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/6104253/1774449957988.jfif) - [**](mailto:?subject='https://www.bano.nl/en/sustainable-exhibition-stand-production-for-ophtec-bano') [Nieuws](https://www.bano.nl/en/tag/nieuws) ![Erwin Balkema](https://6104253.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/6104253/1-Mar-05-2026-10-21-48-8185-AM.png) ### [Erwin Balkema](https://www.bano.nl/en/author/admin) Erwin Balkema is CEO of Bano Event Technology.
