A stand designed for the world's largest food trade show: compliant with the SIAL regulations (cooking, gas, heights), built at Villepinte on schedule, designed for tasting sessions and international buyers.
Quote within 48 h · SIAL technical file handled · Build-up 12-16 October included
Five days, ten sectors, buyers from 200 countries comparing everything. Between the show's technical regulations and the logistics of Villepinte, a SIAL stand takes months of preparation.
Height limits, solid ceilings banned, cooking and gas subject to a file due before summer. A non-compliant stand gets rejected by the organiser.
At SIAL, people taste. Without a preparation area that meets hygiene standards and a smooth tasting flow, your product never meets its buyers.
Build-up from 12 to 16 October, huge halls, regulated access. Missing your slot at Villepinte costs surcharges and sleepless nights.
A SIAL exhibition stand builder is a stand designer and manufacturer who knows the show's specifics: the technical regulations of Paris Nord Villepinte, the cooking, gas and hygiene constraints specific to the food industry, the show's sectors and the build-up schedule. They design, build, install and dismantle your turnkey SIAL Paris 2026 stand, organiser's file included.
Four questions to spot straight away which SIAL regulations apply to your project.
4 questions, the rules that apply to your case
This is the point generalist stand builders skim over. We design your stand WITHIN the show's regulations, and we handle the technical file with the organiser.
| SIAL 2026 rule | What it means | Who handles it |
|---|---|---|
| Maximum height | 5 m, with a 1 m setback from the aisles above 2.50 m | Us: designed within the limit from the 3D stage |
| Solid ceilings | Banned (fire safety / hall sprinkler systems) | Us: compliant open-work structures |
| Openness onto aisles | At least 50% of frontage open onto each aisle | Us: built into the layout plan |
| Cooking & gas | File to be submitted before the end of July 2026, certified equipment | Us: file prepared and submitted |
| Tasting hygiene | Preparation area, water point depending on activity | Us: technical area built into the stand |
| Build-up / dismantling | Build-up 12-16 October, dismantling 21-24 October | Us: slots booked, teams on site |
Usual rules from the SIAL / Paris Nord Villepinte technical regulations, subject to adjustment by the organiser. We check the 2026 edition's specifications for your file.
A tasting counter on the frontage, a standards-compliant preparation area hidden behind: the product draws people in, the sales conversation follows.

Designing a beautiful stand is not enough here: it has to be approved by the organiser, built at Villepinte on time and made to serve tastings. That is our daily work.
Preparing your visit rather than your stand? Read our complete guide to SIAL Paris 2026.
Ideally before April-May 2026 for a custom stand: the design, the technical file (cooking/gas before the end of July) and production take several months. After the summer, build-up slots and creative options shrink.
Yes, that is the very point of the show, but cooking and gas require a technical file submitted before the end of July 2026, with certified equipment and a suitable preparation area. We design the area and submit the file.
Expect a few thousand euros for a branded modular stand, up to several tens of thousands for a custom build with a tasting kitchen. Pricing depends on floor area, sector and equipment: precise quote within 48 h.
The usual maximum height is 5 m, with a 1 m setback from the aisles above 2.50 m, and solid ceilings are banned. We design your stand within these limits from the start, signage included.
Yes: build-up slots from 12 to 16 October booked, teams familiar with Villepinte's access routes, dismantling from 21 to 24 October and stand storage afterwards. You arrive on day one, everything is ready.
