The MESSE FRIEDRICHSHAFEN GmbH reserves the right to demand the dis- mantle or closure of the stand areas in case of non-compliance with the rules.

IMPORTANT:

The use of inflammable decorative material is only permitted if

  • a certification of inspection for the B1 approval is present

  • or it can be determined that no harm will be caused by a firing experiment. Failure to comply with these rules will result in the removal or exchange of the decorative material.
