Frankfurt/Germany – “We are very happy that not only the figures add up, but obviously the quality of the event has been perceived as very good by all participants”, said Dr.-Ing. Thomas Scheuring. “The atmosphere was great, and the feedback we have received so far was very positive.”

Prof. Dr. Kurt Wagemann, Executive Director of Dechema, agreed with respect to the congress: “Our choice of focus topics was just right – this has been proven by the number of people in the lecture halls. And the panel discussions on bioeconomy vs. shale gas and on the energy turnaround obviously hit the mark.”

With 3,813 exhibitors and about 133,000 m² exhibition space, Achema is the leading event for chemical, laboratory and other process industries. For the first time, the majority – 53,9 % of the exhibitors – come from abroad. The biggest groups behind Germany come from China and Italy.
