The green set-up for the Milano Monza Motor Show – another great success signed by Eurostands

Eurostands sets up MIMO in just 3 days

Eurostands Srl, MainPartner of the event, sets up the Outdoor Motor Show that takes place in Milan and at the Monza Eni Circuit from 10th to 13th June 2021.

120 platforms and totems, 50 hand sanitizing column dispensers: everything was designed and produced in our factories in Cambiago for over 60 brands of the automotive business.

From San Babila to Castello Sforzesco, passing through Piazza Duomo. A path dedicated to the restart of the event sector through the exhibition of the latest models of the largest car manufacturers in the world.

Here is a collection of our work for the event that, between test drives and thousands of visitors, has shown that the event industry is ready to be back in business with safety.

The set-up phase

Rain and bad weather did not stop our men, who completed the installation of more than 120 platforms for the MIMO. On top of the platforms, our men have laid 2 km of electrical cables and took care of the safety of the event, with 50 hand sanitizing column dispensers customized MIMO.

With our set-ups we helped more than 63 brands in the automotive sector to show their own creations, entertaining all that audience (car fans and not…) who for months wanted to return to normal life.

Platforms are green and recyclible

What makes this project unique is the fact that more than 6500 square meters of recycled wood was used to create elements that were designed to combine attention to the environment and functionality. For every square meter set up in a sustainable way, a tree is saved from knocking down and more than 100 trips are saved to deliver the goods.

Not only that, at the end of the event this material will be further reused to create new set-ups in Italy or abroad.

“We need to design and build in a completely new way: the safety of our Planet must be put first in everything we do – explains Maurizio Cozzani, CEO of Eurostands – The speech of the Secretary General of the United Nations, António Guterres, who in his words focused on the protection of the environment and on a different interaction between man and nature , is a source of great inspiration for us. Creating set-ups that will have a second life and are produced with recycled wood makes us really proud: it is our contribution to this important effort that engages all humanity”.

Thanks to the reuse of wood and iron, Eurostands aims to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, without forgetting the necessary high quality, safety and attention to details that have always distinguished our historic company.

“We need a tech and design breakthrough for the recovery”: the interview of the CEO of Eurostands for Business Insider Italy

Fairs in Italy. Eurostands' CEO Maurizio Cozzani for Business Insider Italy – the interview

Interview by Marco Cimminella for Business Insider Italia – 22 April 2021

The reopening calendar communicated by Prime Minister Mario Draghi has revived the hopes of trade fair and congress operators: with the resumption of activities scheduled for 1 July (on 15 June for fairs in the yellow regions), companies in the fairs sector are ready to use the rest of the year to recover the financial losses due to the pandemic.

“The trade fair system of Italy has given up the 80% of revenue in 2020. We’ve all lost: the owners of the exhibition parks, the organizers of the events, the service providers and all the staff employed. Not to mention hotels, restaurants, taxis and all those activities related to tourism, especially business tourism” explains to Business Insider Italia Maurizio Cozzani, CEO of Eurostands, international company working in the field of fittings and temporary architecture. “The restart announced by the government is a first step, anyway we think that it will be difficult to return to the turnover of the pre-Covid period before 2022. The spaces and the preparations of the fairs will definitely have to change: from designing differently to investing in technology, so as to involve visitors making them feel safe in a welcoming environment”.

Fairs in Italy - Salone del Mobile di Milano

The closures of last year and the necessary restrictions to contain the spread of coronavirus have had a strong impact on tourism in Italy, with inevitable effects also on the trade fair and congresses system.
One after the other all those physical appointments have been canceled, like events that allow the meeting between thousands of people and companies, Italian and foreign. A negative trend that has strongly affected the balance of companies in the sector: according to UFI – Global Association of the Exhibition Industry, 20% of enterprises scored a sales drop, while over 1 out of 2 reduced their profit by half. “One of the pillars on which the Italian tourism system is based is the ability to attract investors and companies, who choose to come to visit fairs and major events in our country because they look for uniqueness” continues Maurizio Cozzani that explains better, “I choose to come to the Salone del Mobile in Milan because this is where I find the capital of design and architecture. I go to Vinitaly because at the Verona International Exhibition is where many of the best producers of wine in the world are presenting their best products. The same applies to cosmetics in Bologna, men’s fashion in Florence, boating in Genoa”.

The crisis has not only affected Italian operators: The ban on trade fairs affected all countries affected by the pandemic. As the UFI report recalls, the answers provided by the 450 companies in the sector surveyed and distributed across all continents have shown that 54% of the world’s companies have been forced to reduce their workforce. Some companies have tried to convert some production lines to adapt them to a world that has changed.
“During 2020, we transformed our factories”, tells us the CEO of Eurostands, “Instead of cutting wood to build a stand, we tried to go over new markets with other products: we realized plexiglass and columns for the distribution of sanitizing gel, that we sold all over Europe. Instead of sending the carpenters home, we invested in their skills and in their know-how. When it was possible possible, we continued to build fittings, for fashion shows like the Fashion Week in Milan or for the Cortina 2021 World Ski Championships. But we have diversified the activities, we even painted classrooms walls”.

How fairs will change in Italy

The organization of these major events is essential for the resumption of tourism in the Peninsula. But the obstacles that prevent the restart are not lacking. On one hand, the different pace of the vaccination campaign in the various countries and the spread of new variants are factors that the authorities must consider before allowing new reopenings. On the other hand, for those interviewed in the UFI survey, the main problem remains the availability of companies and visitors to participate in physical appointments (64%) followed by the weakening of current measures that limit travels (63%) and safety standards to ensure that trade fairs are held (52%).

“Fairs will necessarily have to change in order to succeed. It will be necessary to invest in new technologies, to carefully choose the materials for the realization of the stands, to develop new projects to make the open spaces more and more safe for the public”, underlines the CEO of Eurostands.

Maurizio Cozzani, CEO of Eurostands

The company has relied on designers and architects to realize its proposals for innovation of the trade fair system. Starting from the design of the environment: “We need to rethink the spaces to ensure a greater distance between visitors and exhibitors. An example is the one offered by the fair in Cologne, where the lanes have been widened from 4 to 8 meters. The small rooms will have to disappear. Then again, it is important to review the materials used in construction. My company is investing in new anti-bacterial paints and washable materials. Even the plexiglass should no longer be a simple piece of plastic placed on a table. For example, we have developed a plexiglass that adapts, as design and structure, to the needs of the Media Centre for the World Ski Championships in Cortina” tells Maurizio Cozzani, adding that “We must not miss all those products that we learned to use in 2020, like masks and sanitizing gel. Finally, we need to invest a lot in technology: an example comes from the fairs in China, where thermoscanners are used to control the temperature and there’s a software that limit the access of people in the various halls. Once the maximum capacity threshold has been established, no other access is allowed”.

The Eurostands’ CEO sees the recipe for the recovery of the sector in the different design of spaces and technology: “If people know that at the Salone del Mobile in Milan the lanes and stands have been built respecting all the necessary parameters to minimize and eliminate the risk of infection, they will feel safer to go there. The Cortina Foundation, chaired by Alessandro Benetton, demonstrated how it was possible to set the World Ski Championships in safety. And we are confident for the openings in the second semester: there are already signals of recovery. We are working on several dossiers, such as the Waterfront in Costa Smeralda and the Milano Monza Motor Show”.

Eurostands sets up the biggest vaccine site in Italy – Valmontone (Rome)

Eurostands delivers the Valmontone vaccine site: the biggest in Italy so far

Another important piece in the history of Eurostands that continues its race in favor of the vaccination campaign.

After setting up the vaccination hubs in the shopping centers of Antegnate and Mapello (near Bergamo) and Vigevano, Eurostands delivers the first drive-through vaccine site near Rome for Promos Group.

The vaccination center inauguration

The 8 indipendent structures of the vaccine site have been set up in the huge parking lot of Valmontone Outlet and were inaugurated on the 13th of April by Nicola Zingaretti, the president of the Regione Lazio, and the Councillor for Health, Alessio D’Amato, who visited the new hub set up by Eurostands.

Also important was the presence of Carlo Maffioli, Promos’s President (Management and Marketing Company of Valmontone Outlet), Giorgio Giulio Santonocito, the General Manager of Asl Roma 5, Giuseppe Colombo, Head of Real Estate Italia DWS (Property of Valmontone Outlet) and the mayor of Valmontone, Alberto Latini.

“We tried to create an Italian model,” Santonocito explained to Repubblica, “In Denver there are 25 cars that come in together thanks to the large surfaces that the vaccine sites have. We thought about a sort of vaccination island, medically and technologically independent. Two nurses and a doctor will vaccinate four cars with people inside, simultaneously“.

The Valmontone drive in model

The drive in of Valmontone is inspired by the American drive-in of Denver, in Colorado, and it’s been prepared in an area of 20,000 square meters, from the collaboration between the Regional Department of Health, the General Manager of ASL, ASL Roma 5 and Valmontone Outlet (Dws & Promos).

As Regione Lazio explains, “this vaccine point model will be taken as example by the new vaccine centers in Italy: a micro structure, consisting of a container placed under a tensile structure, where two nurses will provide simultaneous vaccination of 4 cars in less than 25 minutes, 7 days a week, from 9.00 to 19.00”

Opening date and map

The center will officially open on 19 April and will allow faster vaccination operations and much higher numbers of vaccinated people.

Eurostands sets up the vaccination hub in Antegnate Gran Shopping mall

After designing the Covistop line, Eurostands just built a vaccination hub of 400 square meters within the shopping center of Antegnate, in the province of Bergamo.

A work that is the result of the conversion and the reduction of waste: indeed, the director of the shopping center of Antegnate asked Eurostands to reconvert a space already present at their facility, in order to not waste excessive resources.

The response from Eurostands was quick: the company followed the project in detail and created a functional and safe vaccination hub provided with 8 boxes, 4 for reception and 4 for vaccination.

Each module has been equipped with an antibacterial curtain and a specific furniture designed to be comfortable, ergonomic and easily sterilizable. At the entrance and right before entering the waiting room, guests are welcomed by two Covistop sanitizing columns, a distinctive element of Eurostands’ commitment into fighting the pandemic

Eurostands is technical supplier at Italia Polo Challenge in Cortina | Eurostands for sports

Eurostands is technical partnersupplier at Italia Polo Challenge in Cortina

As at Cortina World Ski Cup 2021, the company leader in the fair business and temporary architecture accepted a new challenge. In Cortina as well, Eurostands will set up and make safe the prestigious international Polo event.

Eurostands is not leaving Cortina, but reinforces his partnership with the city. The company, who had set up the World Ski Cup yet as technical supplier, is ready to face another challenge in the sport field. Eurostands, for over 70 years, has done a deal with the FISE and became technical supplier at the Italia Polo Challenge, a major event that will take place on 26th and 27th february. But, for Eurostands is not the first experience in horse racing and events area, but in a well-known field thanks to the solid long-lasting partnership with “Longines Global Champions Tour” and “Longines Rider Master Cup” in Hong Kong.

“Following the set up of the World Ski Cup in Cortina 2021, a work made in a record time and with the main gol of keep safety first, facing this new challenge make us proud–Maurizio Cozzani, AD di Eurostands said – From 2828 meters of the Tofana, to 1923 Fiames village, our team is ready to set up and build a safe environment to host Italia Polo Challenge. Women and men of Eurostands have and are still working to make this possible, with a great hope for the future. We can’t host supporters and fan, but we wish that in a few months everything will be back as normal”.

Eurostands’ team will disassemble the old set up and assemble the new one quite in the same time: the 6000 sq. Meters of set up for the Ski World Cup will be substituted by the new environment thought for Italia Polo Challenge. Eurostands will build the stage near the field, and the VIP lounges too. Last but not the least, the company will make a restyle of the Maxi-screen in Corso Italia, from which all the games will be broadcasted. The main goal is still the safety: Eurostands will set up hygenizing coloumn and will spread bottled gel to all competition’s guests
