S FREE sports turf , amenities , and landscaping trade exhibition , proves Britain ’ s exhibition scene is back to pre-Covid levels with international exhibitors and visitors from over 40 countries now signed up to attend .
Such overwhelming overseas support for the show which runs from 02-03 November at Birmingham NEC , shows the strength of this event , now in its 76th year , and it ’ s a great indication that Britain is back to being fully open for business as exhibitors and visitors travel from as far afield as Australia .
But what is it about SALTEX that is generating such international interest ? Francesco Dotto , president of GrAssMed , the Mediterranean Groundsman Association , tweeted : “[ SALTEX ] is the most important green fair in Europe , for real professionals , but also for those who to approach sustainable and serious green .” He refers to , of course , the show ’ s focus on sustainability and the environment , key topics at this year ’ s show featuring prominently in the Learning LIVE seminars , with the show bringing together the best in the business from around the world and the most effective products and innovations to help tackle current issues .
This is certainly a view shared by SGL , manufacturers of grass growth products such as grow lighting systems and data monitoring tools based in The Netherlands – and just one of many international businesses exhibiting at this year ’ s show . Derk Pelle , content marketeer at SGL ,
