“By holding the exhibition two weeks earlier we are able to present the participants with a better slot in the international exhibition calendar. With these earlier dates we also avoid getting too close to the Easter holidays. We would like to assure our exhibitors that the new dates won’t affect the planning and organisation process of the exhibition. ICE Europe 2015 will again be held in halls A5 and A6 of the Munich Trade Fair Centre,” says Nicola Hamann, Exhibition Director ICE Europe.
The previous ICE Europe, the 8th International Exhibition for Paper, Film and Foil Converting, was the largest converting exhibition ever. With 6,600 visitors from 64 countries, 400 exhibitors from 19 countries and a net exhibition space of 10,100 m2 the trade show has once again substantially grown. ICE Europe 2013 could furthermore strengthen its quota of international attendance: 41% of the exhibitors and 44% of the visitors came from outside Germany.
The exhibition analysis showed that both exhibitors and visitors were highly satisfied with the results of the exhibition. Exhibiting companies praised the high quality of trade visitors and reported large numbers of business contacts. A total of 83% of this year’s exhibitors had already indicated on-site that they intended to exhibit again at the next ICE Europe in 2015. An exhibitor brochure for ICE Europe 2015 will be available from the organisers at the beginning of next year.
ICE Europe 2015 will again be co-located with CCE International, Europe’s only dedicated Exhibition for the Corrugated and Folding Carton Industry. The show was held for the first time this year and was a thorough success, featuring more than 2,000 visitors and 110 exhibitors.
