IFAT CHINA + EPTEE + CWS – to be organized as a joint event | Dates: 5 to 7 May 2010 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre | Leading platform for the environmental industry in China and Asia

Messe München International (MMI), the organizer of IFAT CHINA, and Shanghai ZM International Exhibition Co., Ltd., organizer of EPTEE + CWS, Show for Water, Air, Waste, Energy and Recycling, are planning a joint event in 2010 – IFAT CHINA + EPTEE + CWS. As part of this cooperation, there are also new joint dates, with IFAT CHINA being moved just one day: IFAT CHINA + EPTEE + CWS will take place from 5 to 7 May 2010 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).
 
IFAT CHINA, International Trade Fair for Water, Sewage, Refuse, Recycling and Natural Energy Sources, attracted 362 exhibitors and over 10,500 visitors for the last event in 2008. The proportion of exhibitors from outside China was again very high, at over 50 percent. In 2009 EPTEE + CWS, Show for Water, Air, Waste, Energy and Recycling, a strong national trade fair, hosted a total of 756 exhibitors and over 32,000 visitors. As such, these two events complement each other very well, both in terms of exhibitor and visitor profiles.


“I have participated in IFAT CHINA several times. This is my third presence at IFAT CHINA and I attended IFAT Germany six times. IFAT CHINA is a very international exhibition. The trade show enjoys strong internationality and visitor participation. In 2008 we had more visitors than during the previous two shows and we were frankly out of breath talking to all visitors. China is keen on environmental industry and a lot of experts talked with us.”
