- Neither the exhibitor nor the assembler can store or handle flammable or unhealthy substances, gas, coal, gasoline or any fuel that poses a risk or causes malaise inside the pavilions or the enclosure. Should the use of any of these elements be necessary, written authorization must be obtained from the Fire Department and Corfu Security Office located in the entrance hall of Pavilion 3 – Level 1 and safety features should be put in place for this scenario.
- It is the duty of exhibitors to bring their own fire extinguishers depending on the type of product displayed on the stands. The following considerations can be consulted to determine the number, type and use of fire extinguishers that exhibitors should employ for fire prevention:
Class A: for fires involving normal solid flammable materials such as wood, chip, paper, rubber and a series of plastics) that require the thermal effects of water (cooling), water solutions, or thermal boundaries created by certain dry chemical elements that delay combustion.
Class B: Fires under normal heptane with a depth of 2 inches (5.1 cm. In square buckets). Fires involving combustible or flammable liquids, flammable gases, oils or similar materials in which extinction is guaranteed more rapidly by eliminating air (oxygen), limiting the evolution of combustible vapors or interrupting chain reactions during combustion.
Class C: Fires involving active electrical equipment that require the use non-conductive agents for the safety of the operator, i.e., electrical insulation.
Solkaflam 123 Liquid Gas: Applicable to fires containing standard material or special material (Electrical Equipment).
- Some of these activities can lead to fire hazards:
