Parts2clean 2023 increases visitor and exhibitor numbers
The 20th Parts2clean, which took place in Stuttgart from September 26-28, 2023, was able to increase its visitor numbers by around a third this year and brought the 150 or so exhibitors high-quality contacts, new projects and concrete deals.
The anniversary event of Parts2clean 2023 has fulfilled the expectations: More than 3,000 trade visitors had come largely with current tasks and projects as well as a great need for knowledge. This resulted in high-quality contacts, new projects and even direct business deals for the more than 150 exhibitors from 14 countries. The trade show was characterized by intensive technical discussions, a very busy technical forum and a positive atmosphere on all three days of the show. The foreign share was around 20 percent, with the strongest visitor nations being Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Turkey, Austria and the Netherlands. The highlight theme of "High Purity", which was added to the core areas of the leading international trade show for industrial parts and surface cleaning for the first time this year, certainly contributed to the considerable increase of around 33 percent compared to the previous year. "As a result, we have placed a stronger focus on the range of solutions offered at parts2clean for tasks where the highest cleanliness requirements must be met," reports Christoph Nowak, Project Director at Deutsche Messe AG.
In total, more than 150 exhibitors from 14 countries presented new, further developed and proven products and services for industrial parts and surface cleaning on an area of around 4,500 square meters. The fact that they were largely able to hold very detailed discussions about specific projects was due to the above-average proportion of trade visitors (99 percent). Around 88 percent are involved in operational investment decisions and about 80 percent visited the show with investment intentions. "The bilingual parts2clean trade forum has always been a visitor magnet. But this year it underpinned its status as one of the world's most sought-after sources of knowledge on industrial parts and surface cleaning with record attendance," reports Christoph Nowak. And the numbers speak for themselves: a total of 2,700 times knowledge transfer par excellence by listening to the simultaneously translated (German <> English) lectures by renowned speakers from science, research and industry to generate or deepen cleaning knowledge. A highlight was also the presentation of the FiT2clean Award 2023. More about Parts2clean 2023 can also be found in the trade fair special on Oberfläche-Online.
