Announcement of a change in Exhibition Safety Policy
While successfully setting up and running trade fairs remains our prime focus, maintaining an environment which is safe for all event participants – exhibitors, workers, visitors, customers etc, is of equal importance as far as Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) the Organiser is concerned.
On seeing more and more instances where relatively primitive booths, despite single-storey by design, are involved very complex construction, HKTDC would like to extend the scope of the prevailing Safety Report practice currently only applicable to two-storey booths to ALL raw space booths exceeding 4m by height. This practice will take effect from 1st Jan 2007.
By this policy, a Safety Report endorsed by a Registered Professional Engineer of designated disciplines (Structural/Civil/Mechanical), must be submitted to us by 1800hrs on the last move-in day of the fair. If this rule is not observed, the Organiser reserves the right to prohibit access to the booth.
Should there be any queries, please feel free to contact Ms Sheena Fung, Operation Manager, Creative at (852) 2584 4506
Thank you for your attention.
Hong Kong Trade Development Council
