Service, Safety and Security at our Events

The safety and security of our everyone at Plastics Live is the utmost priority. We work closely with the venue, local and national authorities to identify risks, assess them and develop security plans for our events.

Everyone attending our events should be aware that the following are in place:

• Customer Service staff may approach you to assist you outside, at entry or inside the event.
• Staff and attendees are required to wear ID badges provided.
• Walkthrough or handheld scanners may be in operation at our events.
• CCTV in operation at our events is monitored and recorded.
• Uniformed and covert Security Guards are in attendance at our events.

Everyone attending Plastics Live is requested to:

• Keep personal property safe at all times and do not leave any items unattended.
• Report anything that looks unusual, suspicious, or just out of place to a member of event staff.
• Remain patient and courteous with event staff undertaking security checks.
• Follow the instructions of event staff at all times.

*Attendees should provide their own face coverings. This can be a face mask, or you may also use a scarf, bandana, religious garment, or hand-made cloth covering. Face coverings are largely intended to protect others, not the wearer, against the spread of infection because they cover the nose and mouth, which are the main confirmed sources of transmission of virus that causes coronavirus infection (COVID-19). Face coverings must as a minimum cover your nose and mouth while securely fitting around the sides of your face.
