Exhibitor manuaL
– Building green CPH 2025

Are you an exhibitor and have a question about your stand at Building Green Copenhagen? Here you can find answers to your questions about the build day and what you need to be aware of before, during and after the event.

We will send emails with important information and deadlines before the event, but if you have questions before then, please contact us. You can find contact info in the Contact Building Green Team section. Building Green reserves the right to make changes to the manual.

Your stand includes the following as agreed in the agreement:

  • Off-white stand walls in 2.5m high against neighboring stands.
  • Stand walls are built in sections of 1m wide and 2.50m high and assembled with aluminum strips.
    • If you need exact dimensions of the modules, we recommend you contact Lokomotivværkstedet directly for any further questions about the walls. Especially if you are ordering graphics for walls or have a builder to set up your stand.
    • Open sides vary depending on where the stand is located. This will be communicated separately to the individual exhibitor. NOTE: Island stands have no walls.
  • Light: there is general lighting from the ceiling (rigg in ceiling)
  • Floor: There are areas where the floor has boards that can withstand a max load of 250kg. Per m2. Therefore, it is important that you inform us if you bring heavy items so that we do not place you directly on these plates in the floor.
  • Pillars in the hall: On the right side the pillars measure 27cm x 27cm and on the left side the pillars measure 85cm x 100cm. The pillars are light green and there may be variations as the old pipes, nozzles and outlets from when the hall used to be a workshop have been preserved. See pictures below.
  • Power supply/socket at 1.8 Kw – *If you need more than 1.8 Kw, we refer to the technical department, See contact info.
  • WIFI
  • Registration system via App to collect visitor contact data (info will follow a few weeks prior the event in October)

REMEMBER that there is a maximum building height of 3m. This also includes all stand material, beach flags etc.

If you have fixtures/materials that exceed 3m (and max. 3.50m), please contact Building Green who will investigate the possibilities for placement on the outer edges of the hall.

Due to the low structure of the stand, it is not allowed to hang banners over the stand.

It is not permitted to damage the floors, walls, roof structure and equipment with screws, drills, nails or in any other way inside the venue.

Construction and exhibition material must be kept within the stand area during the exhibition – this is for the sake of the exhibition as a whole, exhibition flow, cleaning, escape routes, etc.

No logos may be placed against neighboring stands that may cause confusion for visitors.
TESA Tape or power strips can be used for adhesion. At the end of the exhibition, the stand walls must appear as they did at the start. If you want to mount special items such as foil, TV, heavy equipment etc. on the stand walls, please contact Lokomotivværkstedet.

For roofed or covered stands, this must be approved in advance. Coverings larger than 6m2 are not allowed in the venue.

It is a requirement for all canopies that at least one of the sides is open to the hall so that smoke cannot accumulate.

You must not have an open fire or create smoke. As these things will set off the fire alarm, which means that the venue must be emptied and the fire brigade called, it costs DKK 7,500.

ALL stands that have wood or other flammable material on the stand must have a fire extinguisher. Exhibitors can either bring this themselves or rent it from Lokomotivværkstedet.

The stands are vacuumed, and garbage is removed between set-up day and the first event day. But between the event days it is only common areas. However, it is possible to purchase cleaning at the stand.

It is the responsibility of the individual exhibitor to insure the items exhibited at the stand and to cover any damage caused by products, persons or exhibition items to third parties, e.g. the public, while they are at or near the exhibitor’s stand. See the Exhibitor Regulations.

Build-up hours:
Opening hours during build-up on October 28 are from 07:30 – 21:30.

If you need more time to set-up your stand, it is possible to book access to Lokomotivværkstedet on October 27 from 12:00-17:00. The price for this is DKK 3,000,- excl. VAT. It should be booked in advance via Building Green. It is not possible to show up on October 27 without having booked beforehand.

Dismantling hours:
All exhibitors should dismantle on October 30 from 17:00 – 22:00.

NOTE: Stand breakdown must not start before the fair is over on October 30 at 17:00. A penalty of DKK 5,000 incl. VAT will be charged if you begin breakdown before the exhibition is officially closed.

All exhibitors must have collected their stand inventory etc. when Lokomotivværkstedet closes its doors at 22:00. This means that any carriers that exhibitor’s book to pick up stand inventory must ALSO have picked up the goods by 22:00 on October 30.

Building Green does not have access to the venue on October 31st, and it is not possible to leave your things behind.

If you have goods or exhibition material sent to you by courier, it can be received no earlier than the day before build-up. The company name and stand number must be stated on the shipping documents. The carrier must have a telephone number for you in advance so that you can be contacted when the carrier arrives and has placed your goods in the middle of your stand. It is important that you have been notified that the goods are unloaded correctly, so that we avoid pallets/materials in the aisles and in front of the gates – this must be done before the carrier leaves the area. Under no circumstances should your materials be unloaded at a random door/gate, they MUST be placed inside the stand. Otherwise, we risk losing your goods and we can easily block emergency exits.

Building Green and Lokomotivværkstedet disclaim all responsibility in connection with delivered goods, and furthermore has no possibility to pay the carrier for delivery on behalf of the exhibitor.

Goods delivered to the exhibitor in connection with the exhibition and signed for by Lokomotivværkstedet are at the exhibitor’s own risk.

It is possible to purchase storage for empties through the venue’s exhibitor portal. You will receive a log-in for this during September 2025. Please note that you need to book storage in advance, and there is no storage space in the hall, so it cannot be guaranteed that you will be able to book storage on the day of the event. So please remember to book in advance!

Waste containers are located at the rear entrance (Gate 4) of venue. For lighter waste, plastic cups, napkins, etc. there are bins around the hall.

If you need a truck and/or lift to transport your exhibition material from the entrance of the venue to your stand and for storage of empties etc., these must be booked and agreed directly with the venue. Only the staff at Lokomotivværkstedet are allowed to drive in the hall with lifts/trucks/cars. As we have floor plates in several places with load limitations, exhibitors are not allowed to drive trucks etc. through the hall themselves. There will be a few ordinary pallet lifts for common use for everyone during build-up/dismantling, but it cannot be guaranteed that you will find an available pallet lift on arrival. So, keep an eye out in the hall.

There are restrictions as to what you can and cannot serve/hand out inside your stand during the event. Exhibitors are allowed to have small tastings, but not e.g. a large cup of coffee, a plate of food etc. We need to respect the café provided by Building Green.

Building Green has a number of collaborations and activities with selected media aimed at the target group that we would also like to be visited by at the event.
These media ensure a continuous focus on Building Green in the form of advertisements and news on the web and in newsletters in the period leading up to the event, and are key players when it comes to reaching all corners of the industry.

Our media partners offer Building Green’s exhibitors to participate on their platforms and in the format that each trade media is strongest in reaching the target audience.
It is important to us that Building Green’s exhibitors do not feel “overrun” by advertising offers, and we therefore encourage our trade media to save on inquiries.

In addition, from the organizer’s side, we also want to keep exhibitors informed about who Building Green has collaborations/activities with. Participation in advertising on trade media platforms should give you the advantage of being placed in the correct context in relation to Building Green. Building Green.

At the entrance to the exhibition area, Byggematerialer.dk is available for visitors as well as exhibitors to help with information about the exhibition. Therefore, it is important as an exhibitor to submit a form for the online catalog. In this way, your product is marketed to the fullest.

By registering with Building Green, you agree that Building Green will record and store the contact details entered in accordance with applicable legislation.

This allows the registrant to share their contact details with exhibitors by scanning the name badge at each stand.
