If you intend to hang heavy objects please make a note on your stand diagram with detail specifications. The wall can be reinforced at additional cost.
The wall consists of a modular honeycomb shaped inner core, i.e. the panel is in filled with structural paper that is formed into a honeycomb structure. We recommend standard screws and nails as fixings. For additional security, please ensure that the screws and nails are at least 70mm long and are nailed into the central layer of the panel at an angle, at least 45 degrees. Exhibitors are responsible for making sure that the artworks are securely affixed to the walls.
Please note that gluing objects to the walls will not be permitted. Walls can only be painted in other colours if ordered through PICO. Please contact PICO for further queries.

Allocation of Spare and Additional Walling
Should you have any spare walling or additional walling ordered, you are free to allocate the walling within your booth area. Please note that the stability of stand walling must be considered during your stand planning, and the allocation of stand walling should comply with the following design regulations.
1. Extended walls supported at one end
The maximum running length of an extended wall is 5m
2. Extended walls supported at both ends
For any wall section that is longer than 5m, it must be supported by wall panels at both ends. It is advisable to add a wall panel, at least 2m at the end of the extended wall to form a ‘T’ or ‘L’ shaped configuration (see illustrations below). Please note that regardless of the configuration, the maximum wall length between the two supporting walls is 6m.
3. Freestanding Walls
Freestanding walls are not permitted due to their instability
Alternative, a freestanding structure with a maximum length of 6m is allowed if it is constructed according to the guidelines below:
a) ‘H’ or ‘U’ configuration with supporting panels (at least 2m) at both ends
b) Free standing box with a minimum depth of 0.5m
