Security advice/theft prevention

Because we want you to be able to focus on your business during your stay with us, we are pleased to provide you with some security advice in advance. Koelnmesse has taken numerous steps to ensure your safety while on trade fair grounds. But your cooperation is also a crucial part of preventing crimes such as theft. Below, we provide tips on the effective protection of your property:

During set-up:

  • All gates are expected to be opened
  • Merchandise and stand components are moved in and out
  • It is not possible to monitor the movement of goods in the hall

Consequently:

  • Leave valuables in your hotel or carry them on your person and do not set them down anywhere
  • Decorate the stand but, wherever possible, do not bring expensive merchandise/individual items along until Sunday morning
  • Order security personnel for your own stand in the Service Shop

During the trade fair:

  • Koelnmesse provides general hall security
  • This does not include special security for individual stands
  • Lock up valuables overnight, take them to the hotel, contract with security personnel for your own stand in the Service Shop and take out appropriate insurance cover.

Accommodation and your stay in Cologne

Important trade fair preparations

Exhibitor codes/tickets

You have received the codes for your stand personnel and your stand constructor or your assembly and dismantling personnel, to which you are entitled free of charge on the basis of your stand size, from us by e-mail.

Additional passes for your stand personnel are subject to a charge (75,- EUR/piece) and can be reordered here.

The exhibitor ticket entitles the holder to admission to ProSweets Cologne and ISM and is also valid as a ticket for buses and trains in the extended network of the Rhine-Sieg Transport Authority (VRS). This does not apply to trains of Deutsche Bahn AG that are subject to surcharges, such as IC/EC or ICE.

Co-exhibitor

Please check if you have informed us on the co-exhibitors on your stand according to form 1.20 (.pdf) and form 1.30 (.pdf) . These companies must be registered in preparation of the event. Only then do the visitors at the fair have the opportunity to find all represented companies, either through the information provided by the information terminals, or via the “Exhibitor Search“ on the internet. Thus, you will provide an additional communicative link between the potential buyers and yourself as an exhibitor.

Stand invoice - Urgently adhere to payment terms

We kindly request that you check whether your invoices have already been settled, as punctual payment of the stand rental fee is a prerequisite for accessing your stand.
