UK exhibition display materials and fire evidence 2026: dataset (Stand Central)

We analysed 1,034 exhibition display product pages from 39 UK suppliers, captured in September 2026, alongside the materials rules of 18 venues, 25 organiser manuals and the August 2026 AEV eGuide (615 rule variables). For each product page we recorded whether it makes a product-specific fire statement, which fire standard it names, the materials it names and whether it offers a fire certificate, with the source URL and the exact wording. We checked published evidence, not whether products pass fire tests; unknown means not stated on the captured page.
