Trinity Displays might have started in a garage, but now it has 90,000-square-feet of space to build its large-scale displays for trade shows and expos.

In October, the company started moving to its new space, a former Lowe's Home Improvement store at 6221 U.S. Highway 6. By February, they were moved in but still working on the space. Office space comes next.

The company that started in 2009 has grown into a national fabrication partner. It employs 30 people who manage, design and produce the displays.

Over the years it spread out among multiple buildings in Chesterton for a total of 25,000 square feet.

But demands for bigger displays and more experiential builds led the search for more space in one place.

“This move is really about scale,” said Robert Swiatek, co-owner and head of operations, in a press release. “We’ve grown steadily over the years, and this new space allows us to take on bigger projects, support more clients at once, and continue delivering at the level our partners expect.”

Collaboration is key to moving projects from concept to execution. Turning customers' renderings into real-world trade show exhibits takes time and space.

The new space is already making a difference. Trinity produced large-scale display for both the men’s and women’s Final Four Fan Fests. Some were as large as 140-by-50 feet.

Trinity fabricated, printed and staged the displays for the first time under one roof. They also have space for rental storage now.

“We’ve seen a big increase in clients asking for custom rental solutions,” said Marty McGinnis, co-owner and head of business development. “They want something that looks custom without the commitment of purchasing. This facility gives us the space to store the inventory, build and manage those environments at a much larger scale.”

Even though Trinity is growing, owners are committed to staying in the Region.

“This building gives us the foundation for what’s next,” McGinnis said. “We’re focused on continuing to grow with our clients, take on new challenges, and keep pushing what’s possible in this industry.”
