Positive Outlook for IFAT ENTSORGA

More than six months before its official opening, IFAT ENTSORGA is reporting good interim results. To date, the number of registrations already received for this year’s IFAT ENTSORGA is higher than at the comparable point in time in 2008.

"We are more than satisfied with these results. The application situation clearly demonstrates that the industry welcomes the switch to a two-year cycle and supports the fact that Messe München is collaborating with BDE", said Eugen Egetenmeir, Managing Director of Messe München GmbH.
The decision to switch to holding the fair every two years was made a year ago. Messe München and BDE (Federation of the German Waste, Water and Raw Materials Management Industry) have been collaborating since the beginning of the year.

IFAT ENTSORGA has seen some impressive growth in the sector for "Water extraction/Water and sewage treatment", which will occupy an entire hall more than at IFAT 2008. Among others, the sector’s leading companies such as Andritz, Huber, Kemira, Norit, Passavant-Geiger and Siemens will present themselves in Munich.

The fact that all of the industry’s key players in the other product-group categories have already registered for the fair is also very gratifying. Leading manufacturers such as Alba, Lobbe, Remondis, Veolia Wasser, Tholander, SSI Schäfer, Sulo, Doppstadt, Hammel, Komptech, Liebherr, Mewa and Sennebogen, the German Biogas Association and companies such as Daimler, Faun, MAN, Zöller, Endress und Hauser, Nivus, VAG, Grundfos, ITT, KSB, Tyco, Buderus, St. Gobain, IBAK and IPEK are also exhibiting at IFAT ENTSORGA. e.on, MVV (Munich Transport and Tariff Association) and Vattenfall will also be represented in Munich.
