This Show Orginized By ARABLAB Group. Booth Xperts designs and builds custom exhibition stands for brands exhibiting at this show, managing everything from concept design to on-site installation.

About ARABLAB LIVE 2026
ARABLAB LIVE is the Middle East's leading platform for laboratory technology, analytical instrumentation, biotechnology, and life sciences. The 2026 edition at Dubai World Trade Centre will feature:
- 1,000+ exhibitors and 15,000+ attendees from 120+ countries.
- 350+ speakers across dedicated conference tracks.
- New exhibition zones focused on life sciences, digital lab technology, and industrial lab equipment.
- A buyer audience that includes lab managers, procurement heads, medical researchers, and regional distributors.
For exhibitors, this scale means real purchasing conversations on the floor, not just brochure collection. The conference sessions running alongside the exhibition also give exhibitors early visibility into regulatory and automation trends shaping lab procurement across the Gulf.
Why Your Stand Design Matters at This Event
Laboratory and analytics shows come with build requirements that a generic trade fair doesn't. Live instrument demonstrations, powered equipment, and analytical displays all place specific demands on stand structure. A stand that looks good but isn't engineered for this environment can create real problems mid-show.
Our design process for ARABLAB LIVE 2026 accounts for this from day one:
- Structural planning that meets DWTC's rigging, height, and load-bearing regulations before fabrication begins.
- Reinforced flooring and accessible power runs for equipment demo zones, planned at the design stage rather than added later.
- Fire-retardant materials used as standard, given the concentration of powered equipment across the show floor.
- 3D visualization so you can review and approve the design before a single panel is cut.
Modular vs. Custom: Choosing the Right Build
Not every exhibitor needs the same type of stand, and the right choice depends on your goals and timeline.
A modular stand works well for exhibitors who need a fast build, a smaller footprint, or plan to reuse elements across multiple shows. It's typically more cost-efficient and quicker to install.
A fully custom stand suits brands looking for a flagship presence — multi-level structures, branded lighting, custom millwork, and a design built specifically around your product and messaging. Custom builds take more lead time, which is exactly why early planning matters this far out from October.

Our Track Record in Dubai
Booth Xperts has been designing and fabricating exhibition stands in Dubai since 2015. Working exclusively in this market for nearly a decade means our team knows DWTC's halls, loading docks, and build-window constraints in detail — the kind of practical knowledge that only comes from repeated, hands-on execution rather than a one-off visit.
At ARABLAB 2025, we designed and built a 174 SQM custom stand for PETROTECH, managing structural fabrication, on-site logistics, and a full install-to-dismantle timeline within DWTC's build windows. That project reflects the scale and technical coordination this event consistently requires — multiple vendors, tight schedules, and zero room for last-minute surprises.
Our Work Portfolio
What Your Stand Will Cost
Pricing depends on three core factors: booth size, materials selected, and how customized the design is. A modular stand in a standard footprint costs less and builds faster; a bespoke structure with multi-level features, custom millwork, and branded lighting sits at a higher investment level but delivers a more distinctive presence. Share your space allocation and goals with us, and we'll map out where your project fits.
