Companies from the USA, Asia, (China, Malaysia, Taiwan, South Korea and India), Europe (Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Austria, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Finland, and the Ukraine) as well as the United Arab Emirates have registered. 28 suppliers from Germany will be present on a total of 669 square metres of exhibition space.

For good reason: Because Dubai is the platform for successful business transactions in the Middle East; the biggest and most important trading centre in a region with approx. 544 million people, a per capita GDP of about 1,000 US dollars and above average population growth. Thanks to an excellent investment volume, the exhibitors here can expect not only promising new business contacts and interesting specialist discussions at their stands but also good post-exhibition business. Previous events have clearly demonstrated this.
A total of 14,500 specialist visitors from 41 nations came to the most recent specialist exhibition in January 2007 and to the simultaneously held Arabplast 2007, Arab International Plastic & Rubber Industry Trade Show. They ensured intensive negotiations and many successful business transactions in the halls of the Dubai International Convention Exhibition Centre, the most important exhibition platform in the region with 70 annual events and an ultra-modern site.
According to the questionnaires, the international specialist visitors were satisfied with the service provided by Tekno Tube Arabia. Here, their expectations were fulfilled; to see high quality innovations on the one hand and to find concrete and individual solutions on the other hand.
