Air-Tech & Fluid Power & Systems Exhibitions power up for 2016 showcase
February 16, 2016
The biennial Air-Tech & Fluid Power & Systems Exhibitions, co-located alongside; Drives & Controls, Plant and Asset Management, European Offshore Energy, Exhibitions – are once again set to return to Birmingham’s NEC (Halls 3/3A) from 12-14th April 2016, alongside MACH 2016 and National Electronics Week 2016. Collectively the exhibitions will be the largest manufacturing and engineering events of 2016, and will create an unmissable event.
Air-Tech
Air-Tech 2016 is set to highlight current key themes related to the very latest in air compressor and related technology from companies from around the globe.
The event is supported by the British Compressed Air Society (BCAS), and is the UK’s only dedicated event for the compressed air and generators market.
Colin Mander, regional director for Gardner Denver Ltd. was very enthusiastic about the show in 2014 and will again have a leading presence in 2016 by both exhibiting at the event and sponsoring the Fluid Power & Air seminar theatre: “It’s about flying the flag for Gardner Denver, we do a really good job outside of the show but bringing people here gets people to see what we do, and is a chance to show all our products at once – we don’t normally get to do that. Opportunities like this are really great.”
Andy Jones, Mattei Compressors, managing director, commented that the 2014 event was: “Certainly the best one we’ve attended since the show started. It is an exhibition that just keeps getting bigger and bigger. It’s a good opportunity for us to meet existing and new clients, and we had lots of excellent leads from inside and outside the industry.” Mattei will also be exhibiting in 2016.
Mike Neal, managing director Huba Control AG (GB) explained that the 2014 event was it’s first but certainly not its last: “The level of interest was extremely good, providing us with an excellent platform for promoting our range of pressure and flow measuring sensors. The resulting number of high-quality enquiries makes the decision to return very easy.” Huba will have a major presence at Air-Tech 2016.
Vanda Jones, BCAS executive director, highlighted that Air-Tech continues to be a much-valued fixture on the Society’s events’ calendar: “It’s the UK’s only dedicated event for the compressed air, generators and vacuum market and provides the ideal arena for our members to network with each other and also an ideal platform for the Society to promote its expertise and range of services.”
