All the stand components, materials and furniture that make up, including, but not limited to, walls, chairs, tables, showcases, etc., are booked by the exhibitor on a rental basis.

The cost of any damage to the stand, materials, furniture, etc., which may be found due to non-compliance or negligence on the part of the exhibitor, as well as due to their action or inaction, will be claimed from the exhibitor by Easyfairs.

On the other hand, exhibitors must notify the organisation of any service, furniture or component of their stand that does not correspond to what was booked for their participation so that it can be removed immediately. Otherwise, Easyfairs will proceed to invoice the ONSITE period price to the exhibitor at the end of the event.
