How do I manage my floorplan and aisles?

You ExCeL Event Manager will work with you to review both your floorplan and RAMS to ensure that the latest guidance is adhered to.

How will ExCeL manage ventilation? 

Ventilation will be increased, improving fresh air circulation in line with latest CIBSE (Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers) guidance and recommendations. 

What is ExCeL cleaning regime?

The ExCeL Cleaning Team have been trained to deliver new cleaning procedures. This includes ensuring all touch points, as well as seating in conference and meeting areas, are regularly wiped with chlorine-based cleaning fluid. All bathrooms will be allocated to a specific event and checked and maintained by a dedicated team of cleaners. Specific waste management procedures are in place to manage the safe disposal of PPE and testing materials.

How will in-hall and stand cleaning be managed?

ExCeL will continue to have responsibility for cleaning organiser offices and aisles. Cleaning in these areas will be conducted using a chlorine-based cleaning fluid. Any other cleaning services can be quoted for, including the option to have a dedicated cleaner. Exhibitors are responsible for stand cleaning. If an exhibitor requires a dedicated cleaner this can be arranged via your Event Manager, at cost.
