- The exhibitor must request a master plan from the Organization containing the specifications of the surface. It is very important to study the floor plans to avoid any setbacks in the layout, given that the event organizers may modify the basic floor plans in the marketing process, for reasons linked to maximizing the use of an area or logistical needs.
- Before starting the assembly process, both the Exhibitor and the person in charge of assembly must check the physical conditions and square meters of the areas to be occupied on site. The designs must adhere to existing conditions given that CORFERIAS will not modify its facilities to fit the design of the stand. If you have any queries, please consult the Events Sub-Directorate in advance.
- Decoration companies with independent pavilions or areas (for the same exhibitor) must receive and deliver the relevant areas to the person in charge, as assigned by CORFERIAS’ Operational Coordination Office. Under no circumstances may the assembly of the exhibition areas start without the respective approval of ANATO and official delivery by CORFERIAS.
- The exhibitor or the person in charge of assembly must remain within the perimeters that mark the exhibition area on the floor. The basic height for construction is 2,40 mts. and the maximum height permitted is 5,00 mts, from floor level to the highest object. Should you require a greater height, ANATO’s Events Sub-Directorate and the Assembly Division of the Technical Sub-Directorate at CORFERIAS must be consulted for analysis and authorization.
- Assembled items must not stick out beyond the perimeter.
- Wall enclosures may not exceed 50% of the distance from the façade (each side of the stand facing a corridor is considered a façade). This standard is equally applicable to the stands located across from the glass façade of the Great Hall facing Carrera 40.
- Exhibitor and assembly companies must not damage CORFERIAS’ physical fixtures (floors, walls, ceilings, structures, etc.) with wedges, wall plugs, fixings, nails, etc., as well as any objects used to create partitions or decorate. Should this occur, the Technical Sub-Directorate of CORFERIAS will proceed to issue any charges that may apply.
- The exhibitor or the person in charge of assembly must not use paint or glue on the partition system, since it cannot be reverted to its original state after applying these products.
- The exhibitor and assembly companies must not paint using spraying or compression systems inside the pavilions. In the event that painting is required, they must set up the necessary protective elements around the exhibition area and enclose or isolate the stand area to avoid affecting adjacent areas. If this requirement is not fulfilled, the Technical Sub-Directorate of CORFERIAS may issue a penalty to the company or the person in charge of assembly.
- Objects cannot be hung from the structures, ceilings or roofing of the building, no matter how light they may be. Companies must provide flexible, easy to assemble, self-supporting designs that do not require modifications or alterations to the built environment inside the enclosure.
- If the exhibitor or the assembly company needs an element to be removed from the ceilings or structures of the pavilions, they must request authorization from the Head of Assembly for this activity. Authorizations must be requested at least 15 days before the assembly start date.
- CORFERIAS reserves the right to disassemble any element that is not approved by the Corporation’s Head of Assemby.
- Any floor plans that share boundaries with another exhibitor’s area should not exceed the maximum permitted height of 2,40 mts. In the event that a greater height is required, you must consult Assembly Headquarters at CORFERIAS for their authorization. It is important to check the height of the pavilions before starting assembly.
- All set ups must provide for the use of optimal finishes on every facade that can be seen from any point within the exhibition (mounting frames) and will be obliged to make any improvements necessary to avoid affecting the aesthetics of the neighboring stand. Event organizers may proceed to fix of affected frames, these charges will be transferred to any exhibitors that fail to comply with this rule, in the form of a fine.
- If you wish to install any sound emitters that may cause discomfort or upset the exhibitors or visitors, the exhibitor or the person in charge of the assembly must provide adequate sound insulation systems and employ moderate volume levels, which should be approved by the Organization in advance (40 decibels maximum).
- Every assembly company must have the tools and equipment required to perform their task. CORFERIAS cannot lend its tools or equipment or rent them out.
- The exhibitor and assembly companies must refrain from handling floor mats; they must not be removed under any circumstances. In the event that damages are caused to the mat (paint stains, piercing, scratches or burns), the Technical Sub-Directorate of CORFERIAS will issue charges in line with replacement fees and fines for damages.
- Mat cleaning or repairs must be carried out by authorized and trained CORFERIAS staff.
- The exhibitor will be liable for the cleanliness of the stands both at the time of assembly and disassembly and during the fair. If any specialized companies or individuals are in charge of carrying out these tasks, the exhibitor must ask the Organization to provide staff accreditation. Any materials left in common areas or outside the area assigned to the exhibitor will be considered waste or debris. CORFERIAS will carry out the task of lifting any materials, objects or goods that it finds left unattended in common or circulation areas, and will not be liable for their condition or whereabouts. Any expenses incurred whilst performing this task will be charged.
- Exhibitor’s and assembly companies must provide assembly systems and use platforms or stages if they wish to apply finishes on the floor. This is to avoid damaging pavilion floor mats.
- The maximum load capacity for concrete flooring is 400 Kg/m².
- The CORFERIAS paneling and profiling partition system performs a non-structural, dividing function, therefore, only elements such as frames, posters, etc., with a weight of no more than 5 kg per 1.00 mt panel may be hung.
- For two-storey stands, a comprehensive project must be submitted containing floor plans and structural certification issued by a competent professional. Prior approval by CORFERIAS is required. Sizes, load and capacity must be specified, and it is the sole responsibility of the Exhibitor to comply with the established capacity.
- All stands must comply with the 2010 NSR-10 Earthquake Resistance Standard, CORFERIAS will not review or approve structural designs or the stand’s construction system, this is the responsibility of the exhibitor or the assembly company.
- The voltage supplied by CORFERIAS is 110 volts in single-phase circuits and 208 volts in three-phase circuits, both with a frequency of 60 Hz with maximum variations of 3%. We recommend the use of voltage stabilizers and/or regulators, UPS, regulated circuit boards, fuses, step-up transformers, etc., to reinforce the protection of computers, electronic equipment and electronically-controlled machinery.
