Official ACS Contractors Providers Vendors And Publications

ACS exhibitors may be periodically contacted by non-official contractors offering such services as advertising opportunities, exhibition guides, stand construction, housing, or the option of purchasing an attendee registration list.

The organizers of the ACS have not provided any information to these third parties, or given permission for them to contact you. We do not sell exhibitor lists/contact information to anyone. Companies often use public information available on the internet to acquire exhibitors’ contact information.

Of course, it is your decision who you appoint and how you choose to promote your presence at the ACS 2026. However, we don’t want any exhibitor to take advantage of an opportunity mistakenly thinking that it is an official ACS-sponsored or supported opportunity when it is not.

For your convenience, you will find a list of all Official ACS Service Contractors and vendors below, as well as a listing of official publications of the ACS.

If you have questions about any communication that you receive, please feel free to contact Cameron Hames, Director of Exhibitions, AC Media.
