It has been an extremely intense and successful trade fair season! Download reports and event summaries for details of the profile of participants.
We kicked off the season with the 7th edition of the International Trade Fair for Fastener and Fixing Technology FASTENER POLAND®, taking place on the 25-26th September 2024 at EXPO Kraków. It is the only event of its kind in Central and Eastern Europe, annually attracting a huge turnout of numbers from abroad, both exhibitors and visitors.
At the centre was a fasteners zone for the construction industry and a conference on challenges and future prospects. A novelty of this year's edition was the Meeting Zone dedicated to companies that are beginning their adventure with participation in fairs and those that have not planned this form of promotion in this year's budget. In a dedicated area, with a small financial outlay, traders had the opportunity to present their offer and obtain orders. This project was enthusiastically received and will certainly be continued.

This was followed by the 16th International Packaging Trade Fair Packaging Innovations, taking place on the 9-10th of October 2024 at EXPO Kraków. In addition to the exhibition zone with the networking, media, and career zone, participants had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the projects of the finalists of the 13th Student Zone Contest and take part in the partners' anniversaries, as well as the Packaging Innovations Conference, which is part of Circular Week 2024 - an international series of events and initiatives dedicated to the circular economy and sustainable development taking place throughout Europe.
The trade fair is extending the formula to the Packaging Innovations Forum and will combine even more formats! It promises to be a special event for the packaging industry in Poland!
The season finale was extremely intense, as the 13th International Trade Fair for Composite Materials, Technologies and Products KOMPOZYT-EXPO®, 15th International Trade Fair for Powder & Bulk Solids Technologies SYMAS® and 15th International Trade Fair for Suppliers of Maintenance Products and Services MAINTENANCE took place simultaneously on 16-17th October 2024 at EXPO Kraków.
KOMPOZYT-EXPO® is the only trade fair in Poland and the largest in Central and Eastern Europe devoted entirely to the composite materials industry. The scope of the fair is very specific, so that the event is visited by strictly professional visitors who specialise in the topic of composites. During this year's edition, the trade fair competition for the best product and technology returned to the programme after a break. An exciting change awaits, as the fair is moving to a two-year cycle and will alternate with the JEC Forum Central Europe conference.
KOMPOZYT-EXPO® attracts new projects, including the AMULET project final and the launch of the ResC4EU platform. Several international clusters, consortia, and associations attended, including Composites United e.V., the Polish Cluster of Composite Materials, the Latvian Information Technology Cluster, the European Digital Innovation Hub, and the Bydgoszcz Industrial Cluster – Tool Valley.

- The SYMAS® MAINTENANCE Trade Fair keeps getting better each year, drawing more clients with every edition. The first day was truly outstanding in terms of both the number and quality of visitors - commented Tomasz Zalejski from Anro, reflecting on the 15th edition of the event. During the official opening, the organizers recognized five companies: DMN-WESTINGHOUSE, INWET S.A., Powder&Bulk, NetterVibration, and WAKRO, which have participated since the first edition, generously sharing their experience and knowledge and contributing to the fair's growth.
As every year, the fair was accompanied by the Autumn School of Maintenance conference. Attendees participated in practical workshops and various lectures introducing them to new technologies and best practices in maintenance. In the demonstration zone, visitors could join machine showcases and workshops led by exhibitors. For example, Euchner presented a demonstration on measuring collision forces for collaborative robots, and UE Systems held training sessions on the basics of ultrasonic technology.
