August 28, 2012 - United States Of America
Entering its third decade as the most important three days each year for the global filtration business, the Filtration 2012 International Conference and Exposition will return to the Pennsylvania Convention Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, November 13–15, 2012.
Exhibitors will be showcasing the latest products, technologies and end products for filtration, while an extensive three-day Conference Program will cover diverse aspects of filtration technology, new products and research. INDA, Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, the organizer of the annual event, expects Filtration 2012 to attract over 1600 attendees from 30 countries to network, attend the Conference and walk the aisles of the Pennsylvania Convention Center.
Filtration 2012 is on pace to surpass the more than 125 exhibitors from all links in the filter supply chain that took part at Filtration 2011 in Chicago last November.
“As it returns to Philadelphia after a successful show in Chicago last year, Filtration 2012 will certainly live up to its reputation as the most important gathering of the global filtration business this year,” says INDA President Rory Holmes.
Holmes points out that the annual Filtration Conference & Exposition has become an extremely international venue for the filtration industry. “At Filtration 2011 in Chicago approximately one-third of all exhibitors were from outside the United States and Filtration 2012 is on track to exceed this,”Holmes adds. “Filtration 2012 is truly a global event and anyone involved in the business of filtration anywhere in the world should attend to learn about present and future opportunities in this industry.”
“With booth sales trending well ahead of last year’s total, Filtration 2012 promises to offer attendees even more exposure to the latest and greatest filtration products from companies around the world,”adds Marilyn Bellinger, Associate Director of Sales and Membership at INDA. “We are on pace for a record-setting show and we look forward to welcoming the world of filtration to Philadelphia.”
In addition to the Exposition, the Filtration 2012 Conference will provide insight into the latest technical developments in filtration from some of the industry’s leading companies and research institutions. Holmes points out that issues such as interior air quality, control of airborne diseases and illnesses, and greater efficiencies for industrial applications remain vital to individuals and businesses. Filtration 2012, he adds, will address these topics and more.
