PaintExpo 2024 with very good registration status

Preparations for the upcoming edition of the world's leading trade fair for industrial painting technology from April 9 to 12, 2024 in Karlsruhe are in full swing: a few months before the start of the trade fair, PaintExpo has a very good number of registrations.

Over 90 percent of the PaintExpo exhibition space from the previous event has already been rented out. An innovation is also planned: With the "digital theme routes" offer, exhibitors can draw attention to their topics in the exhibitor and product directory on the PaintExpo website with a focus on sustainability, careers and exhibitor campaigns in the run-up to the trade fair. Currently 340 exhibitors have registered for PaintExpo 2024. "We're making good progress and are looking forward with great anticipation to the upcoming edition of the world's leading trade fair for industrial coating technology. We're very satisfied with the current number of registrations. So if you want to be at PaintExpo 2024, you shouldn't hesitate any longer to secure a stand space", says Project Director Mariella Riedel, who has been in charge of PaintExpo since April of this year and is responsible for several international trade fairs at Leipziger Messe.

In addition to Germany, most exhibitors currently come from Italy, Turkey and Switzerland. However, the range of exhibitors extends far beyond Europe: for example, companies from the USA and China are also represented. The proportion of international exhibitors is currently over 40 percent. "The high level of internationality makes it clear that PaintExpo will once again be a global showcase for the latest trends in all aspects of painting. The who's who of the industry with its market and technology leaders will be there again", explains Project Director Mariella Riedel. Numerous new exhibitors will also be celebrating their premiere at PaintExpo next April - including B6 Innovations from Germany, Botko from Belgium, Mirodur from Italy and Rhopoint Instruments from Germany.

Harter will be exhibiting at PaintExpo for the first time since 2012. Jonas List from Technical Sales at Harter explains why the company is returning to the world's leading trade fair for industrial painting technology: "We have recently received a lot of inquiries from system manufacturers who want to offer their customers energy-saving and efficient drying systems. This has prompted us to show our presence again in the field of paint drying. Exhibiting at PaintExpo is a wonderful opportunity to get into personal discussions with interested parties - about the many possibilities and advantages of our state-subsidized drying technology." Harter has been manufacturing heat pump-based drying systems for more than 30 years - and the company has been at the forefront of energy saving with its condensation dryers right from the start.

Since the first PaintExpo in 2006, J. Wagner has been represented at every edition of the trade fair - and the company has also secured its stand for the upcoming world's leading trade fair for industrial painting technology. "PaintExpo is an irreplaceable industry meeting place for us, where we present our products, solutions and services. Personal contact with existing and potential customers and business partners is extremely important for us, as we can continuously improve through mutual exchange. PaintExpo is one of the highlights of our trade fair year, as all the relevant players in the surface treatment industry come together here. The internationality of the visitors is an important aspect for us as a global company," reports Markus Sonnenstatter, CSO Industrial Solutions at J. Wagner. The manufacturer will be presenting innovations in the field of wet paint and powder, with a focus on sustainability and energy efficiency. Visitors to the J. Wagner stand will be able to experience a wide range of products - from manual equipment to fully automated systems.

In addition to many new products from exhibitors from the painting technology sector, trade fair participants can look forward to another innovation: digital theme routes will be introduced during PaintExpo. The new offering will cover the focal points of sustainability, careers and exhibitor campaigns and enable exhibitors to present their thematically appropriate offerings in the exhibitor and product directory on the PaintExpo website in the run-up to the trade fair. This will enable trade visitors to make targeted discoveries about the focal points of the themed routes with the help of the digital supplement on site at PaintExpo. (OM-12/23)
