About 900 exhibitors will present the latest technologies for processing, analysing and handling powder and bulk solids at Powtech, a leading trade fair of powder and bulk solids, to be held later this month in Nuremberg, Germany.

The event will take place from April 19 to 21.

Visitors will also have free access to an extensive supporting programme, providing them with first-hand access to the latest process expertise. The VDMA (German Engineering Association) will present best practices in eco-efficiency through its Blue Competence Initiative, said a statement.

Trade visitors will encounter concentrated university research and new talents at the Generation Future special area. The new Powtech app will also help to find personal highlights in the programme, it added.

Three trade forums with non-stop presentations in the exhibition halls will reflect the wide range of sectors and topics at the event. The special areas organised by associations and high-calibre partners at the exhibition also invite visitors to linger, network and exchange knowledge, it said.

The three presentation areas in the event’s exhibition halls will offer non-stop presentations, many of them in English. The 30-minute slots and panel discussions will address current topics in the industry in a useful, compact format.

A total of 15 universities, institutes and institutions will present their research projects in the new special area Generation Future at the event and will provide information about partnerships.

Beate Fischer, project manager for the event, said: “In 2016 we are raising the visibility of the event’s high-calibre programme. Nowhere else do so many experts from the bulky solids and process industry meet in one location.”

“Every trade visitor will go home with a wealth of new knowledge – and can start afresh with very tangible solutions and ideas after visiting the exhibition,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
