The huge success of the previous event in Basel, Switzerland, not only illustrates the high demand for bespoke chemicals and innovative products. With a total of 379 exhibitors and 4,295 trade visitors from 65 countries, it also underlines the show’s unique position as the primary specialised trading and networking event for the fine and speciality chemicals industry in Europe.

Looking at the current booking status, Chemspec Europe 2020 is set to continue its success story: three months before the start of the event, more exhibition space than ever has been sold and booked. Amongst the exhibiting companies are Albemarle, Arkema France, CABB AG, Chevron Phillips Chemicals International N.V., Evonik, Johnson Matthey, Kemira Oyj, Lonza Ltd, Solvay, Sumitomo Chemical Europe SA/NV, Tosoh Europe B.V, Vertellus, WeylChem International GmbH and many more.

“Sustainability, new trends such as power foods and bio-based cosmetics, and digitalisation are not just buzzwords. In fact, these aspects and the ongoing demand for innovations determine the industry. The choice of the right suppliers and the exchange of knowledge within international industry networks is more important than ever”, says Liljana Goszdziewski, Exhibition Director of Chemspec Europe, on behalf of the organisers, Mack Brooks Exhibitions. “With a highly specialised exhibition profile, Chemspec Europe is a key event for buyers, traders and agents in search of bespoke solutions and innovative substances. Furthermore, the exhibition is a powerful gateway to global business and industry knowledge and makes the event so appealing to both exhibitors and visitors.”

Chemspec Europe 2020 features the full spectrum of fine and speciality chemicals for various applications and industries, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers, green chemicals, food and feed ingredients, flavours and fragrances, bio-based chemicals, pigments and dyes, paints and coatings, household and cleaning chemicals, adhesives and sealants, petrochemicals, electronic chemicals and many others.
