High quality standards for the health of trade fair participants at German trade fairs

Hygiene and distance concepts at trade fairs in Germany

Many German organisers are planning a re-start in autumn 2020 after the lockdown caused by the corona pandemic. The federal states have signalled a thumbs-up in many cases and have specified rules for hygiene and social distancing. On this basis, the organisers have developed far-reaching concepts for each trade fair individually in close cooperation with the responsible authorities in order to protect your health. The large-scale and modern exhibition centres in Germany offer perfect conditions for implementing these concepts.

Basic points of all hygiene concepts and social distancing measures for your safety are for example

• Keeping a minimum distance of 1.5 metre between all persons on the exhibition centres
• Stream of visitors is controlled at entry areas and within the halls by consistent crowd management to avoid a high concentration of people
• Complete registration of visitors, exhibitor and service staff and other participants to enable tracking
• Observance of strict sanitary rules on the exhibition centres; especially frequent cleaning cycles for shared facilities and contact surfaces
• Good aeration of entry areas, halls and conference rooms by modern ventilation installation
• Numerous possibilities of hand disinfection placed throughout the exhibition centre
• No welcome rituals like handshakes
• Wearing a face mask is recommended and to some extent obligatory.
