Hanley Wood Gets New Building Show
By Rachel Wimberly -- Tradeshow Week, 11/23/2009
Hanley Wood Exhibitions and Messe Frankfurt North America will partner on the launch of the Plumbing + Hydronics Expo, which will collocate with Hanley Wood's existing Remodeling Show and DeckExpo.
The three collocated shows will be held Sept. 15-17 at the Baltimore Convention Center.
The Remodeling Show is sponsored by the Natl. Assn. of Home Builders, NAHB Remodelers and Remodeling magazine.
“These two events are a natural fit,” said Amy Allen, show director for the Remodeling Show. “Baltimore is a strong venue for the Remodeling Show and in close proximity to a concentrated audience of remodeling and residential contractors.”
In general, remodelers typically work closely with “behind-the-wall” specialty contractors, such as plumbers and heating, ventilating and air-conditioning and mechanical contractors, she added.
“Hosting the exhibitions side by side will provide audiences with a wide array of opportunities to grow their current businesses and provide even greater value for their time,” Allen said.
The Plumbing + Hydronics Expo is owned and produced by Messe Frankfurt N.A., a wholly owned subsidiary of Germany-based Messe Frankfurt.
“We are pleased to announce the launch of the Plumbing + Hydronics Expo to serve an important market in an accessible region,” said David Audrain, president of Messe Frankfurt N.A. “By offering a focused event in the highly concentrated Mid-Atlantic region and collocating with the Remodeling Show, this event will be beneficial to significantly more buyers and make it even more valuable for our exhibiting companies.”
Other building shows in Hanley Wood's portfolio include Surfaces, StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas, Pool | Spa | Patio Expo, World of Concrete and JLC Live.
