Messe München International, the organizers of IFAT Entsorga 2012, have reported that the trade show set a record this year with about 125,000 visitors. In 2010, the trade fair attracted slightly less than 110,000 attendees.
Messe München adds that the IFAT Entsorga show featured approximately 3,000 exhibitors from 54 countries.
Messe München also reported that this year’s mobile phone collection campaign generated significant interest from attendees. The collected mobile phones will be recycled by the German company Remondis Co with the proceeds being donated to a water foundation, Messe München said.
The next IFAT Entsorga trade fair and conference is scheduled for May 5-9, 2014, in Munich, Germany. The five-day event is considered the largest event focusing on water, sewage, waste and raw materials management.
