PaintExpo 2024: Strong visitor turnout, great atmosphere and more international than ever before

With excellent visitor numbers and a very busy atmosphere in three exhibition halls as well as countless highly qualified professional conversations and new customer contacts, the ninth edition of PaintExpo held April 9-12, 2024 was a tremendous success.

 At the world's leading trade fair for industrial coating technology in the German city of Karlsruhe, 431 exhibitors from 25 countries filled 31,500 square meters of exhibition space with their presentations of new, groundbreaking technologies for the sustainable, energyefficient coating processes of tomorrow. The event was attended by 10,400 visitors.

The number of countries they represented increased from 57 to 76, making this year's PaintExpo more international than ever before. International exhibitors constituted 45 per cent of the total.

As the world's most important international platform for industrial coating technology. PaintExpo once again impressed exhibitors and visitors alike. "We're very pleased with the strong visitor turnout, which was even better than at the previous edition of the trade fair.

PaintExpo was a powerful and innovative event - and more international than ever before. For four days, it was the nerve center of industrial coating technology, underlining the position of PaintExpo as the most significant driving force in the industry worldwide," says Markus Geisenberger, Chief Executive Officer of Leipziger Messe.
