Case Study: 12+ Urgent Exhibition Print Jobs Completed for DWTC Exhibitors
Introduction
During a major exhibition at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), Total Printing Solutions received more than 12 urgent print requirements from exhibitors working against the same exhibition opening deadline.
The orders included replacement roll-up banners, additional business cards, brochures, flyers, foam board signage, table displays, and other promotional materials. Several exhibitors submitted or revised artwork shortly before production, creating a compressed window for artwork approval, printing, finishing, quality checking, and delivery.
This case study focuses on one multi-client emergency production workflow and explains how the orders were coordinated from artwork submission through delivery to DWTC.
Client identities and specific event details remain confidential.

Requirements varied between exhibitors, but the main products included:
- Roll-up banners

- Foam board signage

Several orders involved additional quantities or replacement materials following artwork changes and booth preparation updates.

- 5 mm foam boards
- Matte laminated business cards
Different materials were selected according to the intended use of each product, from booth graphics and signage to networking materials and printed marketing collateral.ion.
Production Workflow
The main production challenge was coordinating different print products for multiple exhibitors within the same deadline.
1. Order and Artwork Review
Each order was reviewed individually to confirm product type, dimensions, quantity, artwork readiness, and finishing requirements.
2. Job Prioritisation
Orders were prioritised according to the required delivery time, production complexity, and exhibition setup schedule.
3. Parallel Production
Different products were processed through the appropriate production and finishing stages rather than waiting for every item to be completed before the next job began.
This allowed business cards, banners, brochures, foam boards, and other materials to progress through production as efficiently as possible.
4. Quality Control
Each completed order was checked for print quality, alignment, quantity, and finishing before packaging.
5. Delivery Coordination
Completed orders were prepared for dispatch according to the exhibitors’ required delivery windows at Dubai World Trade Centre.
Challenges and Solutions

Files were reviewed as soon as they were received, allowing production issues to be identified before printing whenever possible.

Conclusion
This multi-exhibitor project demonstrates how urgent exhibition printing can require the coordination of multiple products, artwork approvals, production stages, quality checks, and delivery arrangements within one shared event deadline.
For this project, more than 12 urgent print jobs were coordinated for DWTC exhibitors, including roll-up banners, business cards, brochures, flyers, foam board signage, and other exhibition materials.
The case also highlights an important practical point for exhibitors: the fastest possible printing turnaround still depends on artwork readiness, product specifications, production capacity, and delivery requirements.
