On-Site Inspection

1. Shell scheme: Will be checked to ensure you have not overloaded the supplied electrical plugs, have affixed graphics securely and with the correct fixings and are contained within your allocated space.

2. Self-build/Space only: The Contractor and Stand Plan form must be completed and returned with a set of plans, drawn to a recognised scale (e.g. 1:200) by the deadline for approval.

Any modifications made to the plans after submission must be notified in writing to the Conference Organisers, immediately for re-approval.

3. Designs incorporating long runs of gangway perimeter walling should be avoided and will not be approved if deemed by the Organisers to have a detrimental effect on the Conference or neighbouring stands.

4. Your company name must be prominently displayed on the stand.

5. All mains electrical installations are handled by the official electrical contractor.

6. The overall height of stand fitting (including graphics and column cladding) must not exceed 2.5m in height from the floor for shell scheme and 4m for self-build stands.

7. Existing building columns, where sited on stands, should be clad on all faces, allowing for access to fire points, etc., where necessary. Such cladding may surround the column, but may not touch it or be fixed to it in any way.

8. On stands of three open sides or less (part island), exhibitors are obliged to erect a wall (minimum height of 2.5m) between any other stand and are responsible for ensuring that their contractor leaves any face of any such wall in a clean and finished state (one colour with no graphics).

9. All work must be carried out within the timetable in this manual.

10. Approved carpet tape must be used – please contact the shell scheme contractor, details at the front of this manual, if you need advice on this.

All tape must be removed at the end of the Exhibition. Failure to do so will result in the exhibiting company being charged for its removal by the venue.
