The Portable Sanitation Expo will return for 2015 on 25-26th February at a new, larger venue - the Ricoh Arena, Coventry. The only event that is 100% dedicated to the portable sanitation sector will host exhibitors and attendees from across the industry for two days of networking and knowledge building.
The Modular Portable Buildings Association (MPBA), the UK's only not-for-profit trade association for the modular and portable building industry, will be supporting the Expo, which is predominately aimed at the hire rental market, including the construction industry.
Event organisers Portable Sanitation Europe (PSE) will be hosting the Expo for the first time at the Ricoh Arena to accommodate its growing popularity. Martin Murdoch, PSE's general secretary said: 'The portable sanitation sector is worth approximately £2.5-3 billion in Europe. This market size and the increasing demand for information on both products and the regulations affecting the sector have driven our move to a larger, more central venue.
'This exciting platform will help push and facilitate the essential networking and business opportunities the portable sanitation sector has to offer in the UK, and give us an external space for exhibitor demonstration and display. It is great to have the support of the MPBA and their additional input into the content of the show.'
There has been considerable investment with PSE appointing McCullough Moore, a specialist exhibition sales and management company, to support and drive the success of the event. Visitors can expect top suppliers, show floor demonstrations and FOC training workshops on topics such as carbon footprint and energy efficiency issues, how to safely dispose of effluents, new CDM regulations and much more.
Discussing the market's business opportunity, Jackie Maginnis MPBA's chief executive commented: 'Portable sanitation remains a growing industry and portable toilets are an integral part of almost every building site. This ever increasing demand provides an excellent business opportunity for innovation and opportunities for new or established companies who wish to diversify into this sector.'
Last year's Expo was held at the Telford International Centre and the feedback from exhibitors and visitors gave it a resounding 'best event to date'. As the Portable Sanitation Expo enters its 9th year, 2015's event is set to be bigger and better.
