Following its record staging in 2013, parts2clean is headed for more growth in 2014. Demand for exhibition space appears to be even stronger due to the simultaneous staging of parts2clean alongside O&S and other related shows.
By early December 2013, as many as 121 exhibitors had already reserved space for the 12th edition of the flagship trade fair for cleaning of industrial components and surfaces to be held from 24 to 26 June 2014 at the Stuttgart Exhibition Center.
Good results “Four weeks after our participation in parts2clean 2013, we already have a number of excellent business deals in the making and soon to be closed. The previous year’s fair went very well for us, but the total number of valuable business contacts we made this time is even higher,” reports Gerhard Koblenzer, Managing Director of LPW Reinigungssysteme. Similarly positive feedback about post-show business could be heard from many other parts2clean 2013 exhibitors. This is certainly one reason why at the start of December, two-thirds of the available exhibition space has already been firmly booked. The exhibitor lineup already includes virtually all the market and technology leaders in each of the areas covered: systems, processes and process media, and their conditioning for degreasing, cleaning, deburring and pretreating of components, parts hoppers and workpiece containers; cleanroom technology; corrosion protection; conservation and packaging; contract cleaning services; quality assurance, test methods and analysis procedures.
As a cross-industry and cross-materials showcase, the most recent parts2clean attracted some 4,982 trade professionals to Stuttgart – nearly 14 percent more than in 2012. These visitors hailed from a total of 49 European, American and Asian countries. Fully 90 percent of the visiting trade professionals are involved in purchasing and procurement for their organizations. No wonder exhibitors boast of such good post-fair business.
Parallel implementation with O&S raises attraction Another reason for the high interest in stand space, according to Olaf Daebler, parts2clean General Manager for Deutsche Messe, is the parallel staging alongside O&S, the flagship trade fair for surface treatments and coatings. “Decorative and functional coatings play a significant role in all industrial sectors today, and properly cleaned surfaces are key to the quality of these coatings, whatever the processes used,” explains Daebler. “That is why nearly every visitor to O&S is also a potential customer for parts2clean exhibitors, which opens up new market opportunities for these companies.”
