With excellent business contacts and prospects of promising post-event deals, Valve Word Expo 2012, the international trade fair for industrial valves and fittings, has come to an end for exhibitors and visitors in Düsseldorf.
A total of 10,300 trade visitors from more than 50 countries came to get information on the state-of-the-art in industrial valves and fittings in the Düsseldorf exhibition halls. And the supporting expert conference was a resounding success, as its approx. 60 lectures and workshops attracted a total of 350 participants. The programme of the 2012 conference was even more closely aligned with the interests and requests of the participants than the previous event.
The Valve World Conference and Exhibition held at the Düsseldorf Exhibition Centre from 27 to 29 November 2012 was already the second event of its kind. On the three days of the fair, 593 international companies from 37 countries presented innovative technologies, components and systems from the industrial valves sector. Companies from numerous subsectors presented themselves on a total exhibition space of approx. 15,700 m². The highlights were valves, their components and parts, actuators and positioners, pumps, compressors, engineering services and software.
“Valve World is already well established in Europe”, says Matthias Stein, Marketing Manager of LESER GmbH & Co. KG, in his summary of three successful trade fair days. “Our visitors do not focus on standard products but product solutions for special applications and their requirements. This year, we also show many innovations such as special designs for corrosive media or high counter pressures.”
