2 SPRAYFOAM 2017 CONVENTION & EXPO

Welcome to the

SPFA Convention Exhibitors!

Make Your Success at Sprayfoam 2017!

Every year the SPFA Annual Convention and Expo gets bigger and better. SPFA has made a point of developing new elements and innovative program additions year after year, getting great speakers with great topics to entertain and inform our attendees, and positioning the show as a focal point in the industry. With new attendance records set in 2016, the formula of the show is definitely working.

The exhibit hall has become one of the greatest draws for attendees, with its vast and diverse representation covering every corner of the industry. That’s you. And your participation in this marketplace delivered to the show attendees is a critical deliverable that they have come to expect.

We’ve taken pains to make sure that your time (and that of the attendees) in the exhibit hall is as focused as possible. Unlike other shows, we dedicate full and exclusive time every day to the exhibit hall rather than having ongoing competing events because we want to motivate all show attendees to visit your booth without having to worry about what else they may be missing. In addition to that, the opening reception will be held in the exhibit hall on opening day reinforcing the draw to your booth. We are again in a large, beautiful, dedicated convention center, and we have newly-partnered with GES Convention Services to deliver improved service and the best available prices for booth packages to you.

In continuing commitment to our MembersFirst Initiative, we are recognizing the importance, support and value our members represent to SPFA. While all exhibitors are our priority, as a member exhibitor you get advance selection of booth spaces, and special discounted pricing.

Palm Springs is truly a “destination” location for industry events during the winter, and SPFA will be doing additional promotions for the coming show, building even more equity into the booth you and your company will occupy.

Recent reports estimate the market value of the sprayfoam industry to be $1.9B by 2020. Additional reports account for approximately 460-490 million pounds of SPF having been sold last year alone. It takes a lot of customers, knowledgeable and informed contractors, and equipment to move that kind of volume. To reach or exceed that $1.9B milestone, which we are all interested in doing, it’s going to take the concentrated efforts of all elements of the value chain. That conversation, and the network that will make it happen, start on the exhibit hall floor with you.

SPFA is fully committed to this event and the positive experience of all participants. We stand ready to serve you, creating the environment that is ripe for you to make your success this year and in those to follow!

Warmest regards,

Kurt RiesenbergExecutive Director, Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance

Add-on space will be charged by the square foot at a rate indicated below for any additional square footage, with a 5% discount applied to the additional sq. ft. only. Base-rate billed will be either member or non-member rate based upon SPFA membership status. Minimum additional square footage added to booth is 10x10 (100 sq. ft.), and further expansions are only available in 10x10 (100 sq. ft) increments drawing from existing Floor Plan to keep the Floor Plan and booths uniform, unless the Floor Plan, SPFA or other authorities produce a limited ability to expand booths by 10x10 increments. Total cost of the expanded booth will be calculated by starting with the largest available set-booth matching exhibitor desire, and adding the additional per- sq. ft. rate for additional sq. ft. below to reach the total

final square footage of the booth, and then applying a 5% discount on additional/added space (only). Exhibitor is able to combine Premium and Standard space, but any booth space rented as the base-booth, or additional square footage, that falls within booth-space designated as Premium will pay the Premium rate for the identified space/square footage.

This level of customization requires Floor Plan rewrites, decorator charges, fire marshal re-approval, may affect other exhibitors, and imparts additional delays, costs and logistics that negatively impact exhibitors and SPFA. SPFA Accredited companies receive an additional 5% off of the total price of the exhibit booth rental. For every 10x10 added, 1 full convention pass and 2 “Expo Only” passes for booth personnel.Additional Sq. Ft. Rates:Member Standard Rate: $21.55 / sq. ft.Member Premium Rate: $22.80 / sq. ft.Non-Member Standard Rate: $27.60 / sq. ft.Non-Member Premium Rate: $28.88 / sq. ft.Examples:Exhibitor rents 10x10 Member Standard booth, and wishes to add another 10x10 Member Standard booth. This would result in the set 10x20 rate.Exhibitor rents 10x20 Member Standard booth, and wishes to add another 10x10 Member Standard booth. This would result in 10x20 Member Standard booth base rate ($4,309), plus 10x10 (100 sq. ft.) at the rate of $21.55/sq. ft. $4,309 + (100sqft x $21.55 per sq. ft. x 5% discount) = $6,357 total.Exhibitor rents 20x20 Member Standard booth, and wishes to add another 10x20 Member Standard booth. This would result in 20x20 Member Standard booth base rate ($8,119), plus 10x20 (200 sq. ft.) at $21.55/sq. ft. $8,119 + (200sq. ft x $21.55 per sq. ft. x 5% discount) = $12,214 total.Exhibitor rents 20x20 Member Premium booth, and wishes to add another 10x10 Member Premium booth. This would result in 20x20 Member Premium booth base rate ($8,369), plus 10x10 (100 sq. ft.) at the rate of $22.80/sq. ft. $8,369 + (100sqft x $22.80 per sq. ft. x 5% discount) = $10,535 total.Exhibitor rents 20x20 Member Premium booth, and wishes to add another 20x20 Member Standard booth. This would result in 20x20 Member Premium booth base rate ($8,369), plus 20x20 (400 sq. ft.) at the rate of $21.55/sq. ft. $8,369 + (400sqft x $21.55 per sq. ft. x 5% discount) = $16,558 total.Exhibitor rents 20x20 Non-Member Standard booth, and wishes to add another 10x10 Non-Member Standard booth. This would result in 20x20 Non-Member Standard booth ($8,898), plus 10x10 (100 sq. ft.) at the rate of $27.60/sq. ft. $8,897 + (100sqft x $27.60 per sq. ft. x 5% discount) = $11,520 total.Rationale: SPFA encourages members to get the largest booth they desire, hence the additional 5% discount on added space and in many cases a lower sq. ft. cost. It is good for exhibitors, good for the attendees, and good for the SPFA. But for every 10x10 space that is taken as additional booth sq. ft., which would otherwise be sold at the individual higher base 10x10 rate, SPFA, its members and the event lose significant opportunity for diverse representation. While trying to accommodate exhibitor desire for larger booths, SPFA must also assure that the broadest selection of companies desiring exhibit booth space have access to it. Effectively, for every 10x10 additional space added to an expanded booth, a stand-alone base-rate 10x10 becomes unavailable to other prospective Exhibitors. SPFA works diligently and in good faith to balance these factors and accommodate all interested exhibitors.
