Glamorous Influencer Showcase for Sephora
BRIEF Premium beauty retailer Sephora joined with over 30 award-winning cosmetic brands to hold an exclusive media and influencer-only event. Invite-only attendees were able to preview exciting upcoming products. The challenge was to produce creative designs and manage the installation of over 30 branded booths on a tight deadline. As Sephora needed to display 37 unique international brands that operate on different continents, the process of managing the design briefs naturally took longer than usual. This left a shorter production time. WHY NEXT PRINTING CHOSE RE-BOARD® Lightweight Quick and easy to set up and take down Potential to be reused for the client’s next event Timesaving in all aspects: design, production, transport Romeo from Next Printing says: “We aren’t just competing with cardboard anymore – we’re also taking on traditional MDF. Not many players on the market use paperboard to build a structure. It is often only used for display purposes. That’s why Re-board® is so unique. It offers an eco-friendly, lightweight and easy to build solution.” DELIVERY The design process was intensely collaborative. Event management studio The Make Haus provided Next Printing with a framework of the style guide, reference images and the purpose of the displays. For more than 5 years, Next Printing has had an internal industrial designer working with Reboard ®. Therefore, they could offer an extremely effective and efficient solution. This designer came up with 3D renderings and solutions to bring the ideas to life. This allowed them to build stands to the brands’ unique requirements. Delivered on the day: Event setup and clear up. Product showcase booths for 32 different brands. 5 premium custom-built stands Innovative TV wall built without a TV stand – the Re-board® structure supported the 65” TV fully. 3x3 metre cubes with downlights – designed so that 3 people can fully assemble them within an hour. Zigzag wall – designed so that 2 people can fully assemble it within 15 minutes. Next Printing produced 37 eco-friendly booths and stands, all with varying, customised, creative design. Using Re-board®, they delivered unique and complex builds which exemplified every element of the premium Sephora brand. In addition, they created custom-built rigid storage boxes to protect the assets from damage during transport. This effective solution allowed for the assets to be reused at future events. RESULT: As Re-board® is lightweight, Next Printing were able to construct and clear up the stands in record time, saving time and money. The client was thrilled with the result and the option to reuse assets at future events. 37 different stands and booths Set up by 6 people in under 8 hours Taken down by 4 people in under 4 hours 70% of assets reused for the next event 30% recycled as paper Next Printing was able to pull off this event within a tight turnaround time of less than 3 weeks. Both Sephora and The Make Haus were extremely happy with the outcome. Thanks to our printer partner’s creative use of Re-board®, Sephora was able to host their premium event within the required timeframe and budget. More than 100 guests interacted with the impressive displays at Sydney’s Overseas Passenger Terminal, resulting in incredible media coverage. The project successfully challenged the traditional methods of building with MDF and timber, demonstrating what can be achieved with innovative, sustainable materials.
Barbie at Grill'd | Case Study from Next Printing, Australia
Retail Fit-Out at Its Best Next Printing in Australia did an incredible fit-out in conjunction with the launch of the Barbie Movie in July 2023 at Grill’d The Galeries’ Sydney location as Barbie’s Dreamburger Diner. Re-board® was the main material in this project. As an engineered paper-based board with the strength of MDF, it was a smart choice for a temporary fit-out that would need to withstand 5-weeks in a high-traffic restaurant environment. Along with Re-board®, Next Printing used a range of other print materials to further transform windows, floors, tables and columns inside the space. BEFORE There were some significant challenges that Next Printing faced during the design phase of this transformation. Initial site checks showed that many of the existing timber booth structures to be clad with Re-board® were not perfectly square, a major consideration during the industrial design process. And to add more pressure, the entire re-fit needed to be completed in one night. After BEFORE For production purposes, Next Printing divided the project into 10 jobs corresponding with the main areas to be updated. Treating these as individual mini projects, allowed for quicker approvals and movement through production. The items were then packed by area for speedy allocation and unpacking on-site. AFTER Utilizing a team of six experienced installers and approximately 90 Sheets of Re-board® along with other substrates, Next Printing assembled and built a variety of custom structures on site. Some items (for example the main Dreamburger entry feature) were pre-built prior to installation and transported to site to expedite the build.

Chef’s cut: A sustainable and modular exhibition stand for Dole Nordic
The challenge Dole Nordic needed a lightweight, sustainable, and reusable exhibition stand to showcase its concept “Chef’s cut” – No waste, just taste! at food industry trade shows in Sweden and Denmark. The key requirements were: Minimize transport volume and CO2 footprint Flexible design that can be adapted and reused Integrated lighting to create an inviting atmosphere
KASANERU: A modular and sustainable exhibition concept
The challenge Igarashi Seihako, a leading Japanese design company, needed a sustainable, modular, and reusable exhibition concept for the NEWNORMALNEWSTANDARD4 showcase at Salone del Mobile 2024 in Milan. The design had to be: Lightweight and easy to transport internationally Visually striking to highlight material innovation Reusable across multiple locations without compromising quality The solution Re-board® was selected as the ideal material due to its strength, versatility, and recyclability. The exhibition stand was entirely constructed from Re-board, processed in Japan and then shipped to Italy for assembly. The modular design allowed it to be disassembled and reused for exhibitions in Tokyo and Osaka. Kasaneru means "stacking" in Japanese - a concept that inspired both the design and philosophy of the installation. The exhibition highlighted the layered structure of Re-board®, creating a striking stacked effect that showcased the material’s strength and lightweight properties. One key feature of the project was the "Kasaneru" stool, developed in collaboration with product designers. The structure demonstrated how Re-board can be both functional and artistic, offering a unique, layered aesthetic. The installation also incorporated ArakawaGrip wire suspension fixtures, enabling a floating effect that showcased Re-board® in an innovative way. By cutting the edges at an angle, the exposed Re-board® core became a key design element, adding depth and texture. The result A 100% reusable exhibition stand: Successfully used in Milan, then repurposed for Tokyo and Osaka. Sustainable and circular design: Reduced material waste while maintaining high-impact visuals. Enhanced brand storytelling: The floating display concept and stacked elements highlighted Re-board’s unique structure and recyclability. References: https://newnormalnew.com
