DELIVERIES TO THE VENUE
Please ensure deliveries are scheduled when someone will be onsite to receive them as, unfortunately, we are unable to sign for deliveries on exhibitors’ behalf.
If you are unable to guarantee this, please consider using Kuehne & Nagel as they will be onsite and can take delivery of your items for a small handling fee. They will then only deliver to your stand once someone is there to receive the goods. You can find more information here.
All items for delivery must be clearly labelled as per the below:

SECURITY
Although every reasonable precaution is taken and the hall is patrolled day and night, exhibition halls are vulnerable places and the Organisers can accept no responsibility for any loss or damage which may occur to your staff or property from any cause. Please consider these security tips when planning your stand:
- Make contact with the event security company for advice on how secure any vulnerable/ valuable items
- Do not leave your items unattended at any time during the build-up, the open period or breakdown. Do not leave the venue until all visitors have gone each evening
- Think about how you position desirable items, especially where you may not be able to keep an eye on them
- Always secure desirables and valuable items. Typically, these are plasma screens, lap tops, mobile phones and handbags
- Ensure you have enough staff so that your area is not vulnerable to thieves and do not ask anyone else to watch over your property while you go for a break. They may become busy and not be able to keep an eye on it
- Remove all portable items of value each evening where possible, especially on show close evening. Do not leave them until the following day for collection
- Arrive in time for the show opening each day. Ensure your stand is staffed at least 15 minutes before the show opens, but remember the halls open early each day (please check timetable at the front of this document) for maintenance and re-stocking
- Use a lockable cabinet to store your personal possessions during the show open hours
- Consider hiring security personnel to man your stand overnight - you can hire via The Fira Store
- Hire an alarm for your area if you have valuable or portable items
- Ensure your insurance arrangements cover you for this exhibition
If you are a victim of theft please report the matter immediately to the show security team.
