SurfaceTechnology Germany: big and compact

The show's new name is meeting with widespread market approval: SurfaceTechnology Germany (formerly O&S) is already set to be the biggest show since the original event was launched back in 2008. The international trade fair for surface technology, which takes place from 5 to 7 June, is not only very big, but also very compact.

SurfaceTechnology Germany, formerly known as O&S, will take place from 5 to 7 June, 2018.
Instead of being spread across two standard-sized halls, this time the highlights will be grouped together in Hall 1, the largest exhibition hall at the Stuttgart Exhibition Center. Besides the exhibits presented by companies from Germany and around the world, the SurfaceTechnology Forum will also be keen interest to visitors, offering a rich program of talks on the latest coating technology issues and key trends. "Changing the name of a successful trade fair is a bold move", says Olaf Daebler, Global Director of SurfaceTechnology Germany at Deutsche Messe. "But the strong demand for stand space at SurfaceTechnology Germany, from exhibitors at home and abroad, shows that it was the right decision, and that we evidently made a good case for the change. And now the excitement about the upcoming show is already mounting." By the beginning of March, nearly 8,000 square meters of floor space had been booked, which is nearly 10 per cent up on the corresponding figure for the previous event in 2016.

Among the highlights of the supporting program is the SurfaceTechnology Forum , with a lineup of distinguished guest speakers and coverage of topical issues. One of these is the EU's REACH regulation. The cut-off date for the use of chromium(VI) compounds passed over six months ago without any noticeable effect on the mandatory authorization process. This is because the EU authorities have yet to reach a decision on this. The demand for authorization – which has merely been postponed – does oblige firms to engage with the new licensing situation.

Background

The topic areas covered by SurfaceTechnology Germany include electroplating, irradiation, thermal spraying, industrial plasma and laser-based surface treatment, coating materials, surface treatment, environmental and utility engineering, services, pre-treatment, cleaning, and measuring, testing and analysis. There will also be group presentations in Stuttgart on "Waste water and the environment" and "Nano/Microtechnology".
