Deluxe Printing produces Lama standees, Totem display stands, and Forex self-standees for exhibitions, retail environments, trade shows, and outdoor activations across Dubai and the UAE. A lama display stand is the lightweight, portable option at 60cm x 180cm, printed double-sided on 2mm Forex with a sticker finish and built to assemble in under five minutes. A totem display stand is the larger format at 100cm x 200cm, built from wooden MDF or plywood with a digitally printed vinyl sticker and matt lamination, giving it a taller, more solid presence than a lama stand or roll-up banner. A Forex self-standee sits between the two, a slim, self-standing indoor display suited to conferences and corporate events. Every format is custom-sized on request and produced for repeated indoor and outdoor use across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the rest of the UAE.
A display stand booking usually runs into one of two problems: a format that looks too lightweight or generic to hold attention next to a competitor's stand, or a structure that doesn't survive the actual conditions it's used in. A roll-up banner picked for a busy exhibition aisle gets lost next to taller totem displays, a totem display stand chosen without checking indoor doorway clearance doesn't fit through on installation day, and a stand left outdoors without checking UV resistance fades within a few events rather than lasting a full campaign season. Another common issue is turnaround: displays are often needed for a fixed event date, with little room for a slow production cycle if the format or size changes late in planning.
Deluxe Printing addresses both by producing lama, totem, and Forex standees with materials suited to Dubai's climate - UV-resistant, weather-resistant mechanisms for outdoor use, and durable Forex or MDF builds for repeated indoor and outdoor rotation - and by keeping every format available in custom sizes rather than a fixed catalog. We proof each order against the design brief before production, so the standee that arrives at the venue matches what was approved, not an approximation.
A lama stand, a totem display stand, and a Forex self-standee solve different placement problems, which is why Deluxe Printing recommends format based on where it will stand rather than defaulting to one size. A lama display stand suits a retail floor or a trade-show aisle where staff need to move it between positions during the day, a totem display stand suits a fixed exhibition entrance or storefront where height and presence matter more than portability. A Forex self-standee suits an indoor conference room where a slim, easy-to-reposition display works better than a heavier structure.
Businesses running the same campaign across multiple venues rarely want to redesign a standee from scratch for each location. Deluxe Printing keeps approved artwork on file and produces lama and totem standees in custom sizes and shapes on request so that a UAE-wide retail rollout can repeat the same design across a dozen locations without inconsistency between batches. Bulk pricing applies for agencies, event companies, and brands running multi-location campaigns, and cutout or cube configurations are available for totem displays that need a shape beyond the standard rectangular format.

Exhibitors at DWTC and ADNEC commonly use totem display stands to mark a stand entrance from across a hall, since height carries further than a standard roll-up banner in a large venue. Retail brands use lama stands at store entrances and product launch tables where staff need to reposition the display through the day. Agencies running activations at GITEX or Big 5 often order both formats together, a totem display stand for the main entrance and lama stands for secondary positions across the floor, so the same campaign carries a consistent look across a larger footprint.
Deluxe Printing delivers lama standees and totem display stands across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the wider UAE, with installation support available on request.
