Display stands at pickup points for drupa Daily being constructed by Kongsberg

WhatTheyThink, the leading global media organization serving the printing and publishing industries, is collaborating with Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems to design and construct the display stands where drupa visitors will be able to pick up their copies of the drupa Daily, being produced by WhatTheyThink. These sustainable and budget-friendly display stands are constructed of 100% recyclable panels of BEElite honeycomb cardboard core and an external paper layer that will be printed. They are fire retardant certified, flat and lightweight for easy transport, and simple to assemble. 

“We are thrilled to work with WhatTheyTh!nk on this project, and to demonstrate that whether large or small, huge displays or practical container units, the Kongsberg table and tool combination gives designers the freedom to maximize their creativity,” said Stuart Fox, President and CEO of Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems. “In the construction of these display stands, we are leveraging our experience in providing similar display stands at a wide range of trade shows around the globe, including, most recently, FESPA in Amsterdam.”

In the construction of these display stands, Kongsberg will be using it’s C24 cutting table equipped with the Kongsberg VariAngle tool cutting capable of cutting notches in half degree increments without changing the blade, delivering clean cuts and faster production time. Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems will be located in Hall 8a, Stand B43, at the show.

The drupa Daily display stands will be available in a variety of locations throughout the show as visitors enter Messe Düsseldorf, including in the main North Hall entrance, the newly designed Hall 1 entrance, and the South entrance. They will also be positioned at the WhatTheyThink video studio in Hall 7, the Drupa Cube, the Special Area drupa next age (dna), and other key locations around the show.

“We are delighted to be collaborating with Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems in the production of these display stands which will beautifully present our unique A4 drupa Daily publications,” said Eric Vessels, WhatTheyThink’s President. “The 2024 drupa Daily will not only be an informative piece for show attendees, but will also be a collector’s item, with truly unique variable covers printed by HP during the show. We are also pleased that Kongsberg is also a sponsor of the drupa Daily. We appreciate their partnership and their support.”
