A clean, functional table built entirely from cardboard, designed for events where you need something practical that still feels considered.

This square format works well in spaces where layout matters. It sits neatly alongside walls, within modular booth builds, or grouped into larger configurations. You’ll often see it used for workshops, activation counters, display tables, or casual standing areas where people gather, place materials, or interact.

At this size, it has a comfortable working height while still feeling lightweight and easy to move around the space.

How It Works

The table is made from precision-cut cardboard components that slot together to create a rigid internal structure.

Inside, there’s a layered support system that distributes weight evenly across the surface. Once assembled, it feels solid and stable, even in busy environments where people are leaning, placing items, or working around it.

The flat top surface is designed to handle typical event use. laptops, printed materials, product displays, catering items, or workshop tools.

Assembly is straightforward and usually takes just a few minutes. No tools required. Everything locks into place, and just as easily comes apart again for pack down and reuse.

Customisation and Branding

The surface and sides can be finished in a few different ways depending on the look you’re going for:

  • natural kraft cardboard for a raw, minimal feel

  • black cardboard for a more refined or contrast-heavy space

  • full CMYK printed graphics for brand campaigns or messaging

  • coloured panels or layered finishes

Because the table has clean, flat faces, it works really well as a subtle branding surface. Logos, patterns, typography, or campaign visuals can be integrated without it feeling overdesigned.

The standard size for this version is:

  • Length: 79.2 cm

  • Width: 77.7 cm

  • Height: 82.5 cm

Sustainability

This table is designed with both the event and what happens after the event in mind.

It’s made from recyclable cardboard sourced through responsible supply chains, and the production process keeps material use efficient and low impact.

Because it’s lightweight, transport emissions are reduced compared to heavier materials, especially when shipping interstate or moving between venues.

Where it really starts to make a difference is reuse.

These tables can be packed down, stored, and used again across multiple events, activations, or installations. For longer-term builds, they often become part of a modular kit that evolves over time rather than being discarded after one use.

For businesses thinking more carefully about their environmental footprint, this kind of approach aligns with a broader shift toward lower waste and more responsible production. Many companies are moving in this direction as part of a wider commitment to balancing environmental and social impact alongside commercial outcomes

Ideal Applications

This table fits into a wide range of event and exhibition environments.

Some of the more common uses include:

  • trade show booths and exhibition stands

  • brand activations and pop ups

  • workshops and interactive sessions

  • retail displays and temporary installations

  • gallery or exhibition spaces

  • theatre and set design

  • community events and information hubs

It works particularly well when paired with other cardboard elements like walls, signage, or seating, creating a consistent visual language across the space.

FAQs

How strong is the table?

It’s designed to handle typical event use without any issues. laptops, printed materials, product displays, and general interaction. The internal structure distributes weight evenly, so it feels stable once assembled.

Can it be reused?

Yes. That’s a big part of how we design these. The table can be packed down and reassembled multiple times, making it suitable for touring activations or repeat events.

Can it be shipped interstate?

It can. The flatpack design keeps transport efficient, and because it’s lightweight, shipping is usually straightforward compared to traditional furniture.

How long does it take to assemble?

Most tables can be assembled in a few minutes. The pieces slot together without tools, and the process is simple enough for on-site teams to handle.

Can the size be changed?

Yes. The listed size is a common format, but we regularly adjust dimensions depending on the space, function, or how it needs to integrate with other elements.

Can it be fully branded?

Absolutely. Full surface printing is available, along with simpler finishes like black or kraft. It can be subtle or highly graphic depending on the project.

What happens after the event?

The table can be reused, stored, or recycled. If a project is designed as a one-off, the materials can be broken down and processed through standard recycling streams.
