The 2024 APGA Convention and Exhibition once again brought together industry leaders, experts, and professionals for an event filled with insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and cutting-edge innovations. Beyond the presentations and technical sessions, the exhibition hall played a key role in showcasing the latest products and services shaping the pipeline industry. Each year, the APGA Best Exhibitor Stand Award honors the exhibitors who go above and beyond to create engaging, informative, and visually compelling displays.
This year’s awards recognized excellence in two categories: the Best Small Stand and the Best Large Stand, reflecting the efforts of both compact and expansive setups to engage attendees and make an impact. The winners demonstrated exceptional creativity and execution in their exhibit designs, setting new standards for future exhibitors.
The *Best Small Stand Award went to iPlex Pipes, whose exhibit stood out for its innovative presentation and interactive elements. Despite its smaller footprint, the stand effectively showcased the company’s range of piping solutions and captured the attention of visitors. iPlex Pipes demonstrated that a smaller space does not limit the ability to make a big impression; with thoughtful design, strategic use of visuals, and engaging content, they created a memorable experience for attendees. Their commitment to quality was evident not only in their products but in the way they chose to present them at the exhibition.
Taking home the Best Large Stand Award, T.D. Williamson & Pro Pipe Services, captivated attendees with a dynamic and inviting exhibit that highlighted their comprehensive solutions for the pipeline industry. The stand featured interactive demonstrations, informative displays, and a knowledgeable team ready to engage with visitors. The duo's approach went beyond just showcasing products; it provided an immersive experience that educated attendees on their services while emphasising the company’s long-standing commitment to safety and innovation. The exhibit was a perfect blend of form and function, setting a high bar for large stands in future exhibitions.
The APGA extends its gratitude to all exhibitors who contributed to the vibrant atmosphere of this year’s convention. Every stand, large or small, added to the diverse range of insights and opportunities available to attendees. Exhibitions like these are a vital part of the APGA Convention, offering a hands-on look at the latest technologies, products, and services that are driving the industry forward.
Congratulations to iPlex Pipes and T.D. Williamson/Pro Piep Sevices for their well-deserved recognition. Their success is a testament to the importance of thoughtful exhibit design and meaningful engagement at events like the APGA Convention. We look forward to seeing even more creative and impactful stands in future exhibitions as we continue to celebrate the best in the industry.
Stay tuned for next year’s event, where we will once again honor the exhibitors who bring the industry’s innovations to life.
