"The combination of these two events were distinguished by a fantastic exhibitor line-up. Several prominent North American and international companies continue to see the value in this event which is evident in their continued support," reports Arnie Gess, Consultant/Show Manager, Messe Frankfurt Inc. "This was complemented by the attendance of all 10 of the Canadian provinces, reaffirming our position as a key platform in the waste management, recycling and public works arena."
The 18th edition was highlighted with innovations from 187 exhibitors from eight countries and entertained more than 2,000 visitors from 33 countries. Some focal points of the Waste & Recycling Expo were products in transportation, storage and heavy machinery. Key players represented, e.g., Mack Trucks Canada, London Machinery, Labrie, Machinex, Peterbilt and Environmental Solutions Group. The Municipal Equipment Expo also successfully connected equipment manufacturers and service providers with municipalities and government agencies within the public works markets.
