In times of uncertainty, the board of EDANA and management of Palexpo have reiterated their vision and announcements for Index exhibitions. As already announced, Index 23 will take place from April 18-21, 2023 in Geneva. Dates for the 2026 edition will be announced later, but Palexpo and EDANA are confident in the positioning of the exhibition in the spring.

“Results of surveys among members of EDANA and Index 20 exhibitors, after the outstanding show last October, have clearly shown a strong preference of our customers for the continuation of our triennial frequency,” said Pierre Wiertz, general manager of EDANA.

“We have heard our key stakeholders’ voice, and the leading position of Index among global nonwovens exhibitions gives us full trust in the industry’s favourable response to both Index 23 and Index 26,” said Michael Staal Axelsen (CEO at Fibertex Personal Care), chair of the EDANA board.

“It is always comforting to see the drive from past exhibitors to re-book their stand as early as possible for the next edition three years ahead, an interval which of course this time, under the circumstances, is shorter for the 2023 edition,” Magali Fakhry, exhibition director at Palexpo, said.

“The three year-cycle provides an ideal frequency to keep the momentum and eagerness for visitors and exhibitors alike to live the unique Index experience, reconnect with their business contacts and rediscover Geneva’s scenery again. We are looking forward to welcoming them again in April 2023 and early spring 2026,” added Fakhry.
