AMTIL is passionate about the future of Manufacturing in Australia. We are working with industry partners to create opportunities for students to learn more about careers in advanced manufacturing. If you are interested in being involved in one of the following AMW Expo careers activities please contact AMTIL Head of Events Kim Banks at kbanks@amtil.com.au

  • Have students visit your exhibition stand for a short briefing about careers opportunities.
    Tuesday 7th and Wednesday 8th June.

Up to eight groups – 10 minute commitment per group over two days.

  • Put forward young ambassadors from your company to be interviewed at AMW for a careers webinar.
    Tuesday 7th or Wednesday 8th June.
    30 minute commitment at AMW Expo.
  • Put forward “tour guides” to help educate student groups around the different technologies that will be on display at AMW.
    Tuesday 7th or Wednesday 8th June. Two hour commitment.

    AMW is a Trade Only Event. Students and educators can find out more about being involved in a formalised tour by contacting kbanks@amtil.com.au

Unauthorised Directories – Organisations have been known to prey on our exhibitors requesting the confirmation of their data for a “free of charge” insertion in different on-line directories and catalogues. With the exception of staff from Map Your Show and AMTIL, these companies are absolutely not linked either to our exhibition or to the organisers or related contractors and they are not authorised to use our name or logos in any form whatsoever. Please pay careful attention to any commercial proposals received by companies such as: EVENT.FAIR, EVENTANDFAIR.ORG, EXPO GUIDE S.C., FAIRGUIDE.COM, EXPO-GUIDE.COM, 10times.com

Attendee Lists – We have noticed a lot more scammers approaching exhibitors over the past year offering to sell attendee/visitor lists to our events. Please note that this is a SCAM and we do not recommend engaging in any way. AMTIL do not on-sell our attendee data to any other party – therefore the Attendees List being offered is NOT legitimate.  We offer a phone or tablet Leads App at each of our Shows (to exhibitors only). These allow an exhibitor to capture contact data from attendees that consent to scanning their badge on your stand only. If you have any concerns or queries, please do not hesitate to contact us to clarify.

Please order AMW Exhibitor Badges for all personnel working on your stand through your Exhibitor Dashboard.

Badges will be available for collection at ICC Sydney at the following locations:

  • AMW Customer Service (Hall 1 – Level 1) – Bulk collection & badge edits from Monday 6th June 2022.
  • AMW Registration Counter (Hall 1 – Level 2 Foyer) – Individual badge collection from Tuesday 7th June 2022.

Exhibitor Badges must be worn at all times during the exhibition opening hours.

Stand or Booth Construction
ICC Sydney requires temporary structures built for exhibitions or events to comply with relevant legislation and are constructed with utmost concern for the safety of the public, employees and contractors.

Due to fire engineering restrictions, the maximum permissible stand height is five (5) metres.

To meet fire safety and National Construction Code (NCC) requirements, please pay careful attention to the following:

– A stand with a roof or ceiling is required to provide additional fire protection equipment, such as a smoke detector and portable CO2 or dry chemical extinguisher.
– Where halogen tube lights are used, ensure the globe unit is protected with safety glass to minimise the risk of explosion and fire.
– All temporary spot lights or the like are to be a minimum of 300mm from the partitions or combustible goods.
– Any custom-built stand with a floor area of more than fifty (50) square metres is to be provided with at least one (1) alternative means of egress to the walkways.
– Doors built into a stand need to comply with the requirements of an exit door i.e. open outwards with a push bar or lever handle.
– Any door incorporated into the stand and not providing an alternative means of egress is to have a NO THOROUGHFARE sign affixed.
– Barriers incorporated into a custom-built stand are to be designed so that they yield to pressure without toppling.
– A maximum average fuel load height of 5m is permitted from ground level to its highest point for the lower exhibition halls e.g. it is acceptable for lighting, cables and lightweight banners to be located at high level near the trusses but not densely stacked combustible products and stands. All custom stand plans require approval from ICC Sydney prior to construction.
– Double storey stands require an engineer’s certificate prior to construction and an Engineer’s signoff once constructed to ensure compliance with certification.

Stand Design
Important considerations for a safety-conscious stand design include the following:

– Structures must not halls do not exceed 5m in height.
– Strict compliance with the National Construction Code 2016 (NCC) and all other relevant Australian Standards.
– Procedures are in place for safely erecting and dismantling the stand once on site, within the allocated time frame.
– Stand dimensions fit the allocated space with sufficient clearance.
– Materials used for stand construction comply with fire hazard properties set out in the NCC 2016.
– ICC Sydney will request submission of all information or documentation confirming the retardant capabilities of the materials.
– Use materials that do not cause dampness, stain, not readily ignitable or capable of emitting toxic fumes in case of ignition.
– All two storey custom stands will require an engineer’s certification on completion.
– Plywood, hardwood, pulp board or fibreboard are to be rendered flame-resistant by a process deemed acceptable by fire authorities.
– When decorating or theming, materials such as crepe paper, corrugated cardboard, straw, hay bales, untreated hessian or PVC sheet (except on floors as a protective membrane) are not to be used without prior ICC Sydney approval.
– Sawdust, tan bark or wood chips of a reasonable size may be used to decorate floors, provided a protective membrane is laid first and chips are kept slightly moist at all times. Cleaning charges will apply.

 

Stand materials
The use of combustible materials such as plastics, paper, foam and thin strips of timber should be limited and generally confined for decorative purposes. Their use should be kept to a minimum and not used for general wall covering.

Overhead fabric materials used as stand covers, canopies, or used as curtains or draperies, must be permeable to water.

Please ensure that materials used for lining, drapes, backdrops, blinds or overhead structures, signs, banners, theming, temporary structures, or similar for displays are fire retardant as per the methods defined in AS/NZS 1530.3:1999. ICC Sydney may require documentation confirming the fire-retardant capabilities of the materials.

Ceiling Height
It is recommended that exhibition booths considering a covered ceiling use materials that are water permeable. If design or stored stands require a non-water permeable ceiling please submit your plans for review.

Please note that each non-water permeable ceiling will be considered on a case by case basis. Stands with non-water permeable ceilings as a minimum must be fitted with an automatic battery backup smoke detector and CO2 or dry powder fire extinguisher. ICC Sydney reserves the right to request automatic dry powder extinguishers in addition to aforementioned for any stand it deems necessary.

Note all two storey stands are deemed to have a ceiling.

For all enclosed areas, with or without a non-water permeable ceiling, which are intended for the storage of goods or for the installation of electrical services (i.e. distribution box etc.), a portable dry powder or CO2 type fire extinguisher is required within the enclosed area. The fire extinguisher must have an indicator sign and remain accessible at all times.

Based on the above, if an electrical/storage closet has a non-water permeable ceiling but is less than 9m2, a portable powder type or Co2 fire extinguisher is required.

Raised floor, steps and ramps
Stand construction and access must be constructed as per the requirements outlined in the National Construction Code 2016 (NCC). The following is a summary of additional requirements, which must be met by designers and builders to ensure adequate access, mobility and to reduce the likelihood of slip and trip incidents:

All raised floor sections or ramped edges are to be free of sharp or dangerous edges and anything that poses a trip hazard.

Edges of thin decorative flooring such as carpet, vinyl, matting, wood or the like, are to be taped down or firmly secured.

Raised floors under 115mm in height
Ensure all raised floors with a height of less than 115mm have a clearly distinguishable ramped edge.

To prevent trip hazards on standard 32mm high raised floors, ramped edging with a gradient no less than 1:3 is generally acceptable in the exhibition industry; however, please note that a 1:3 ramped edge does not constitute a disabled access ramp, For raised floors above 32mm and below 115mm it is recommended that the gradient of the ramped edging be decreased to 1:8.

All ramped edges are contained within the contracted space.

Stairs and ladders
All steps and stairways must comply with the requirements of AS 1657 or the National Construction Code.

Ladders are to comply with AS/NZS 1892.5:2000 Portable ladders – Selection, safe use and care.

Perimeter Walling

The potential impact on neighbouring stands must be considered when planning walling greater than 1.2m high on an outside perimeter of your stand. Expanses of high perimeter walling greater than three metres in length must be approved by the organiser.

Stand visibility
The exhibition organiser requires all stands to be open for visual inspection at all times.
Please submit a risk assessment and Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) to support any Hot Works permit application.

Permit application forms can be found in the Exhibitor Dashboard.

All stands must be fully staffed, operational and exhibits displayed to visitors during the open times of the exhibition. The exhibitor may not undertake, or cause to be undertaken, any activity which, in the opinion of AMTIL, is likely to cause any annoyance to visitors or other exhibitors.  In particular, audiovisual display equipment must be positioned and the sound level so adjusted as to comply with these requirements.

All activities of exhibitors and their staff must be confined to the stand site allocated.  No advertising or canvassing for business may take place elsewhere in the exhibition area.

Exhibitors are asked to familiarise themselves with the AMW terms and conditions to ensure they adhere to these guidelines during the exhibition.

Unless otherwise arranged with AMTIL, all items required for exhibiting purposes must be delivered before the show opens or after the show closes each day.

All display material, furniture and selling aids must be kept within the perimeter of your stand.

Prior to use, all electrical equipment must be tested and tagged in accordance with the NSW Work Health and Safety Regulations 2011, Codes of Practice and Australian Standards.

Electricians will be available on site during move in to test leads and cables.

Exhibitors must ensure that all loose cables are secured to avoid tripping hazards.

Avoiding the following is critical to safety:
– use of damaged electrical leads or untagged/out of date, tools or equipment
– use of electrical leads, tools and equipment in damp or wet conditions unless they are specially designed for use in those conditions
– placement of electrical leads where they may be damaged (e.g. on vehicle access ways, over sharp edges etc.)
– overloading electrical circuits
– use of modified tools or equipment
– use of double adaptors.

Under no circumstances may exhibitors nail or screw any article or display to the stand walls which may damage the walls. Any damage caused to panels will be charged to the exhibitor.

Under no circumstances may the toilet areas of the building be used for obtaining water, disposing of unwanted waste or washing of paintbrushes etc.

Water and Drainage

Water is provided as part of your AMW Stand Package, but must be ordered using the Plumbing Order form in the Exhibitor Dashboard Checklist to ensure supply can meet demand.

Cold Water and Waste systems are provided for use by exhibitors with outlets in each of the primary floor pits. Due to restricted access to water supplies on the exhibition floor, it is crucial that all plumbing requirements are ordered well in advance of the move in date.

Connections:
Water supply with 1/2″ BSP female control valve
Waste supply with 32mm pipe

It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to order connection from the service pit to equipment. AMTIL will provide a licenced plumber on site to assist with connections as necessary.

Please pre-book your water and waste requirements using the plumbing order form in the Exhibitor Dashboard.

Compressed Air

Compressed Air is provided as part of your AMW Stand Package, but must be ordered using the Plumbing Order form in the Exhibitor Dashboard Checklist to ensure supply can meet demand.

Compressed Air systems are provided for use by exhibitors with outlets in each of the primary floor pits. Due to restricted access to air supplies on the exhibition floor, it is crucial that all plumbing requirements are ordered well in advance of the move in date.

Connection is via ½ Inch BSP female thread with isolation valve on the end of approximately 6 meter long 10mm flexible hose delivering air at approximately 8 bar.

Up to ¾ inch female supply line with valve is also available.

Adaptions can be made to larger and smaller connections as needed. Should a larger flow rate be required please contact Kim Banks at kbanks@amtil.com.au

Please pre-book your compressed air requirements using the plumbing order form in the Exhibitor Dashboard.

The venue has free Public WiFi with speeds of up to 2mb/s per device.

For greater speed, premium packs are available for purchase via:
