XXL Crown for INTERNORGA in Hamburg: Custom 3D print for a floating brand moment

Our services

01 Design and technical development

Creative Polymer was responsible not only for the production of the crown itself, but also for the construction of the mounting for its suspended display. This was developed and tested by us to ensure the object could be safely hung and staged in a controlled manner.

Especially with a free-floating and rotating exhibition object, the technical design is crucial. A powerful effect demands an equally robust structural foundation.

02 Large-format 3D Printing in Segments

For manufacturing, transport, and assembly, the crown was divided into two large segments . These, in turn, consisted of 14 and 15 individual parts, respectively.

This segmentation was key to economically producing an object of this dimension and safely delivering it to the exhibition. At the same time, it allowed for precise further processing and controlled assembly.

03 Gluing, Post-processing, and Surface Finish

After manufacturing, the individual parts were glued and post-processed in several steps. This included sanding, filling, re-sanding, and subsequent painting.

With a surface area of approximately 30 m² , the finish is not a detail, but an essential part of the overall effect. Only through meticulous surface treatment does a large printed object transform into a high-quality exhibition piece.

04 Painting and Final Staging

In the final step, the crown received its final coat of paint, giving it precisely the visual presence such an object requires. Combined with the suspended mounting, slow rotation, and droplets on the underside, it created a display that immediately caught the eye and remained memorable.

From Design to Floating Object

The real challenge lay not only in its size, but in the interplay of dimension, weight, surface, and movement. A crown of this kind must not only be produced, but conceived in such a way that it can hang securely, rotate in a controlled manner, and appear high-quality.

Therefore, the suspension was structurally integrated from the outset. The mounting was developed and tested by us so that the object could appear in the space exactly as planned: floating, rotating, and maximally present.

Project Overview

The crown was manufactured as a large-format exhibition object for hanging display.

• Client: Kessko
• Commissioned by: WUM Brand Spaces
• Motto: „Crown your taste“
• Trade Fair: INTERNORGA in Hamburg
• Diameter: 300 cm
• Height: 220 cm
• Total weight: approx. 150 kg
• Delivery: in 2 segments
• Segment composition: 14 or 15 individual parts
• Special features: floating suspension, slow rotation, optical drops on the underside
• Surface: approx. 30 m²

Technical implementation in two large segments

The delivery was made in two segments, to keep transport and handling practical. Within these two units, the crown consisted of a total of 29 individual parts, which were precisely assembled.

This not only allowed for clean manufacturing of the object but also ensured its reliable preparation for trade fair use. Especially with a total weight of approximately 150 kg , this segmentation was a central part of the concept.

Exhibition-Quality Surface Finishing

After bonding, intensive post-processing followed. Sanding, filling, re-sanding, and then painting – this sequence was crucial to ensure the crown appeared seamless, high-quality, and imposing, rather than unfinished.

The approximately 30 m² surface area demanded precision and consistency in every processing step. The result was an object that impressed not only with its size but also with its high-quality appearance.

Drops, Rotation, and Long-Distance Impact

The optical drops on the underside added an extra design element to the crown. They made the object not only more detailed but also more distinctive. Combined with the floating suspension and slow rotation, the presentation achieved an almost theatrical effect.

The result: an epic sight, a spectacular object, and an exhibition stand that became a photo magnet.

The result: An imposing XXL crown with maximum impact

Ultimately, a monumental crown was created for Kessko's trade fair appearance at INTERNORGA in Hamburg: 300 cm diameter, 220 cm height, approximately 150 kg total weight, delivered in two segments and designed for a floating, rotating presentation.

With its size, its movement in space, and the distinctive drops on its underside, it became an object that went far beyond classic trade fair decoration. It was an eye-catcher, a staging, and a brand moment all at once – perfectly embodying the spirit of „Crown your taste“.

Conclusion: Large-format 3D printing for spectacular trade fair exhibits

This project demonstrates the potential of large-format 3D printing for eye-catching trade fair exhibits. Creative Polymer, commissioned by WUM Brand Spaces for Kessko, handled the segmentation, technical development, construction and testing of the mounting system, and comprehensive surface finishing up to the final painting.

This resulted in an XXL crown that not only looked spectacular but was also specifically built to function effectively in the daily hustle and bustle of a trade fair: stable, imposing, and with the kind of impact that turns a booth into a truly memorable experience.
