How to Speed Up Exhibition Setup and Breakdown with the Right Double Sided Carpet Tape

Ask any event planner, exhibitor, or venue manager, and they'll tell you that delivering the perfect exhibition is no joke. A lot can go wrong. Securing flooring, such as carpets, without causing any damage or leaving behind a sticky mess, only adds to the intense pressure.

Tape Jungle's double sided exhibition carpet tape is designed to streamline the installation and removal of temporary flooring. This tape provides much-needed stability, minimizing movement and tripping risks while guaranteeing easy removal minus leftover residue. It can help you speed up your exhibition assembly and takedown and take care of some other common flooring challenges.

Common Flooring Challenges in Exhibitions

When it comes to exhibitions, time is money, whether it's spent preparing, setting up, operating, or dismantling the booth. Unfortunately, there are recurring challenges that might undermine your success.

Tight Installation and Breakdown Schedules

Even though you begin planning for the exhibition well in advance, assembling and disassembling the booth can be under tight deadlines. Setting up flooring can be particularly time-consuming.

If you fail to honor these timelines, you might miss deadlines, frustrate your team, and face penalties from the venue managers. Not to mention potentially losing business.

Using the Wrong Exhibition Tape

Damaged venue flooring, leftover sticky residues, or slip-and-fall accidents from shifting or bundled carpets — all potential repercussions of using the wrong exhibition tape.

While standard adhesive tapes offer quick fixes, they lack the necessary grip. Using them might result in costly cleanup or repair bills and loss of reputation with the venue managers.

Missing the Balance Between Strong Grip and Easy Removal

It's important that the carpets in your exhibition booth stay firmly in place, especially in high-traffic areas, to prevent trip accidents and maintain that pro look. But you also need an exhibition tape that's easy to remove without damaging the floor or leaving any sticky messes.

Fortunately, the right double sided carpet tape can help you strike this delicate balance.

Step-by-Step Guide to Fast Exhibition Flooring Setup

While you're pressed for time, it's essential to set up the exhibition floor the right way. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get it right.

Step 1: Clean and Dry the Floor Surface

There's no way you can set up your booth in a dirty or untidy area and expect it to have a professional look, right? So clean the floor and let it dry completely. And if it has stubborn stains, dirt, or grease, a mind cleaner can do the trick.

Thorough cleaning and drying get rid of dust, dirt, and moisture that can reduce the tape's effectiveness. Wipe down any remaining debris on the floor before applying the tape for maximum adhesion.

Step 2: Apply double sided Exhibition Carpet Tape

Now the floor is sparkling clean, prepped, and ready for the tape. The key here is strategic areas, such as the entrance, walkways, and the carpet's perimeter. These are high-traffic areas where the carpet can easily shift as the event picks up momentum. Measure and cut the tape according to the surface dimensions and press it firmly onto the floor. If your carpet is larger, consider applying the tape in a grid pattern.

Step 3: Peel Off the Backing and Firmly Press the Carpet Into Place

You're almost there. Carefully peel off the silicone-coated release liner to expose the adhesive. Align the carpet over the taped areas and gently lower it into place. Apply even pressure across the entire surface to smoothen out any wrinkles or air pockets and strengthen the bond.

Step 4: Test for Stability Before the Event Starts

Walk across the surface to test for any shifting or movements, however minor. If you notice any, use some more tape to reinforce them. Testing gives you peace of mind knowing that the floor will be safe and secure as the exhibition begins.

Easy Removal Without Residue or Floor Damage

Residual adhesive or damaged floors are not how you want to end a successful exhibition. It's unprofessional, and it could result in unpleasant consequences.

Here are some tips to get it right:

• Peel the tape slowly and evenly: Without hurrying, peel off the tape. This approach prevents tearing, and you're less likely to leave any residue.
• Use heat for extra adhesion: If the tape becomes a bit stubborn to remove, worry not. The trick is to use a heat gun or a hair dryer, and voila! The tape peels off while leaving the floor intact.

Minimal Cleanup Required

Cleaning tape residue can be messy, time-consuming, and costly. But thanks to the solvent-free formula of Tape Jungle's double sided exhibition carpet tape, you don't have to worry about any of that!
