UTECH Europe 2009

| Maastricht, The Netherlands |
31 Mar - 2 Apr 2009
Having organised the UTECH exhibition and conference since 1986 in The Hague, the Netherlands, UTECH Europe 2006 was the very first edition to be held in the Maastricht Exhibition & Congress Centre (MECC), Maastricht. This move to the most southern city of Holland proved to be a great success, as UTECH Europe 2006 broke all previous records. Over 3000 senior PU industry decision makers attended the exhibition, as well as an additional 545 conference delegates, which adds up to a record total of 3545 visitors. This figure does not include the more than 1500 passes distributed to over 100 exhibitors. A great beginning.
UTECH Europe exhibitors have always come away with a positive commitment to be present at the next UTECH Europe exhibition and conference. They make contacts and sales. In fact, many of them regard UTECH Europe, being staged in Maastricht again from March 31 to April 1-2, 2009, as an essential ingredient of their marketing plans.
Also in 2009 UTECH Europe will be the major promotional PU event in the world, where leading industry professionals will meet to discuss policies and strategies for the future. A unique feature of this trade show is that it brings together as exhibitors all the most important international suppliers of raw materials and processing equipment as well as specialist polyurethane manufacturers. And as visitors all specialists from the end-used industries, including the automotive industry, general engineering, aerospace, furnishing & bedding, building & construction, electrical/electrotechnical, footwear, textile, mining and offshore, as well as from companies developing domestic and medical/surgical applications of polyurethanes. This totality makes UTECH Europe the most influential and most important meeting place for the international PU sector to attend during 2009. The top people are always there!
