Setting up your contribution yourself close
Self-assembly of competition entries is only possible for entries in the category 02. product interfaces, which are submitted as original products.
Contributions that are extremely large, difficult to handle or very heavy and have to be mounted, can be registered for self-assembly. If this applies to your contribution, please send an email to the iF team responsible for the iF communication design award.
The decision as to whether a contribution can be set up by the participant or whether it will be set up by iF rests with iF. Small products such as cell phones or navigation devices cannot be set up by participants.
If you set up your product yourself, all necessary material and tools must be provided by you. Resources such as forklifts and ramps have to be provided by you or can be rented via iFs logistics partner Kuehne + Nagel.
Please inform your forwarding company if this applies to you, since any additional costs concerning delivery and collection will be charged to you. If you decide to set up your contribution yourself, you are also responsible for the disposal of any packaging material. If you set up your contribution yourself, you are automatically responsible for dismantling and collecting your contribution after it has been evaluated by the jury. This also applies to products that have received an award.
