Some NFBA exhibitors have been receiving communications from companies soliciting the NFBA attendee list. Please note that these companies are posing as official representatives of the NFBA Frame Building Expo to sell unofficial attendee data lists. These companies are unrelenting and are known to constantly change their company and domain names, but they have no affiliation with the NFBA, and we cannot recommend purchasing a list through them. Exhibitors are advised to beware of anyone soliciting on behalf of the NFBA. Please contact us at  NFBA@heiexpo.com with questions

Sponsorship Opportunities

Booth Personnel Registration

Exhibitors will receive 4 complimentary Booth Personnel Registrations for the first 100 Sq. Ft. of exhibit space purchased and then 2 complimentary Booth Personnel Registrations for each additional 100 sq. ft. of exhibit space purchased. The cost will be $50 for each additional person.
*EXAMPLE: A 10’x20’ space would be allowed 6 complimentary personnel.

Each Space Includes:

• 8’ BLACK/ BEIGE / BEIGE / BLACK back drape
• 3’BLACK side drape
• A standard 7”x44” booth ID sign

A Few Important Things to Note

•  Your booth space is not carpeted, we strongly encourage you to purchase carpet or bring your own flooring for a few reasons: 

1. Defines your booth space
2. Comfort on your feet
3. Aesthetically pleasing and inviting for attendees

• Your booth is a shell (pipe, drape and ID sign) so it does NOT come with a table or chairs.  For ease, a discounted booth package with carpet is offered on our online site.

To Order Online and Obtain Show Information:

• Visit our website https://www.c1tradeshowservices.com/order-services/.

*Any freight handling, labor, or Signage orders will still need to be faxed into the number at the bottom of our order form along with our payment authorization form. A payment authorization form will not need to be faxed in, if you select the box saying “please check this box for C-1 to utilize this card for your show site charges for such items as material handling, additional furnishings, labor, shipping, etc…” on the credit card information screen found on our online ordering website. This will authorize your payment information to stay on file for the remainder of the show.
