A great +20% of visitors for the 2014 edition of the Paris event dedicated to safety. the next one will take place from 7 to 9 November 2016.

The outcome of the latest edition of Expoprotection, the event dedicated to safety held in Paris from 4 to 6 November 2014, was very good. The numbers are positive despite the continuing general economic crisis and, once again, indicate that the occupational health and safety products industry is experiencing a favorable moment in spite of everything.

For the first time the fair lasted three days recording 21.340 visitors, thus obtaining a significant +19.7% in comparison to the edition of two years before (2012). 47% of the visitors came from the Paris region, 36% from the rest of France and 17% from other countries. The number of exhibitors is also stable – 687 including the brands that participated for the first time (32%).

A turnover of exhibitors that was very appreciated by the buyers who could thus get in touch with new suppliers and even fill some previous gap in the product range. The return to the November dates and the new layout of the exhibit organized in one comfortable hall were also considered to be positive.

A resounding success was also achieved by the various workshops organized during the fair (94 themes that saw the participation of almost 5 thousand professionals) and the award for the most innovative products that had to cream off more than 300 proposals.
