Exhibit 3Sixty has announced a significant upgrade to its operational safety standards, with key management figures, Katie Strain and Sam Pearce, securing IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) qualifications. The move signals a strategic shift for the exhibition contractor, moving beyond basic compliance to embedding high-level health and safety expertise directly within its core leadership team..
While many contractors rely on external advisors, Exhibit 3Sixty’s decision to upskill its own team demonstrates a commitment to "investing in themselves." This initiative ensures that safety considerations are not an afterthought, but an integral part of the build process from the very first design conversation.
The qualifications, completed between February and October 2025, arrive just as the industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding onsite safety and construction design management (CDM) regulations.
"We wanted to better ourselves and deepen our understanding of Health and Safety quality," said founder and director of Exhibit 3Sixty, Alan Craner. "For us, this is the first step forward. By bringing this knowledge in-house at the highest level, we are aiming to provide a safer, more reliable service for clients and organisers alike. It’s about giving our partners total peace of mind that their contractor understands the risks and knows how to manage them professionally."
For exhibition organisers and governing bodies, this development highlights Exhibit 3Sixty’s dedication to exceeding quality expectations. The company views this training not as a one-off achievement, but as the foundation of a continuous development program designed to set new benchmarks for safety and quality in the UK exhibition market.
With the 2026 events season underway, Exhibit 3Sixty is now positioned with certified leadership capable of navigating the complex safety landscapes of modern exhibition venues, ensuring a smoother, safer journey for every client.
