IFAT

Covid-19 Update

Messe Munich GmbH has announced IFAT 2020 has been cancelled, and a new live edition will be held in May 2022. The cancellation came at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and now the hope is that by skipping the year altogether the situation will be under control. Organisers are of the opinion that it’s best to wait and organise a safer live event because digital solutions only do a fraction for exhibitors. The new dates are set for the period May 30th – June 3rd, 2022, at Messe Munich in Munich, Germany. The exhibition space will employ every possible health and safety protocol to ensure the well-being of all in attendance. Nevertheless, there is a new digital platform for networking all year round called AHEAD by IFAT. 

Calling Card 

In the waste and raw materials management industry, there’s one event that sets the direction and dictates the pace of innovation. That’s IFAT. This international trade fair is based out of Munich, Germany and serves as a meeting point between supply and demand on a global scale. Editions are held every two years and last for four days. IFAT has been so successful that its template has been used to create satellite events in China, India, Eurasia and Africa. This is all you need to know in order to book your exhibition booth. The original event contains the whole world under a single roof and it’s a quick return on investment, when you meet with buyers who are ready and willing to purchase. 

Business Potential 

Tami Germany, TANA, Magaldi Power, MARREL, Eco-Bat Technologies, ECO-TECHNO, DALBY and DATEV are some of the brands that you can expect to showcase at IFAT. There’s a lot to be discovered in terms of products as there’s every single link in the value chain. Product groups cover industrial waste management, power generation, pump control valves, industrial dust control technology, air purification, soil treatment, storm water collection technology and water supply engineering among others. Buyers travel mainly from European markets such as Austria, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and Spain. Because the product portfolio is so rich, trade visitors also represent all major sectors: industry & manufacturing, municipal & private utilities and waste management organizations, engineering offices & consultants, universities, trade, vocational schools & research institutions.
