Exhibition Stand Construction – Health & Safety

On-site Inspection

Following the build period, a check on stand construction will be carried out prior to the exhibition opening to delegates. Attention will be given to the following areas:

1. The overall height of your stand fittings (including graphics and column cladding) does not exceed 4.0mts in height from the floor.  Any stand fitting measuring 4.0mts in height must be set back at least 1mt from the open perimeter of the stand.
2. On stands of two or three open sides or less (part-island), that a wall has been erected (minimum height of 2.5 metres) between any other stand and that the external face of any such wall has been left in a clean and finished state (one neutral colour with no graphics).
3. That no suspension has been made from the roof of the Hall (unless by prior arrangement and with correct rigging) nor have any fixings been made to the structure of the building.
4. That the stand is acceptable when viewed from above.
5. That all waste has been removed and disposed of properly.
6. That all platform corners have been well finished and are safe.
7. That approved floor fixings have been used – please contact the venue if you need advice on this. All fixings must be removed at the end of the congress.  Failure to do so will result in the exhibitor being charged for its removal by the venue.
