What makes WEFTEC a leading exhibition?

With growing figures, WEFTEC has established itself as 'the place to be' when it comes to making water business, meet new business partners, and exchanging knowledge in the US water and wastewater business.

With expected more than 18,000 attendees and well over 1,000 exhibiting companies, WEFTEC 2024 in New Orleans will once again feature global representation from every major organization covering all aspects of the water storage, purification, and supply industry.

Also recognized as the largest annual water quality exhibition in the world, the expansive show floor provides unparalleled access to the most cutting-edge technologies, serves as a forum for domestic and international business opportunities, and promotes invaluable peer-to-peer networking among registrants.

WEFTEC is both a tradeshow and technical conference with panel discussions and paper presentations, which makes it a great opportunity to network, forge new partnerships, and establish new relations.

USA’s equivalent to IFAT

”WEFTEC is where you showcase your products towards the market. The exhibition gathers everyone and everything, which makes it easy to arrange meetings where e.g., both advisor and customer participates. We are about to close an order that we worked on prior to WEFTEC too, but it was an advantage to meet during the fair where there is more time for both business and small talk.

Pavilion of Denmark gives us more visibility because we become part of a large stand that attracts more attention. We have previously gotten an order because a customer coincidentally walked by and found Denmark interesting.”

Michael B. Nissen, CEO, Nissen Energy
WEFTEC increases our visibility

“Being a smaller dedicated company, visibility towards the American market is important. WEFTEC gives us just that. And when exhibiting at Pavilion of Denmark, we benefit from collaboration and knowledge sharing between the Danish companies. All practicalities are taken care of, which makes our participation easy. We save time and hassle before, during and after the show.”

Jens Toftdahl, Sales Manager, MUTAG

Turnkey exhibition solution

Imagine this: You arrive a few days prior to the show. When you finally get access to the exhibition halls and find your booth, you are met by a small square of raw concrete.

Not when exhibiting at Pavilion of Denmark.

Here, your booth is ready. Simply unpack your brochures, place them on the rack and welcome your customers. We even have hot coffee and snacks for you and your customers.
