The Chinese water market With almost 20% of the world’s population but only 5% of the world’s renewable freshwater supplies, it is obvious why the Chinese government is so focused on water treatment issues. The Ministry of Water Resources noted that more than 400 of the 663 cities in China struggle with water shortages. On one hand, water quality remains an issue, while on the other, demand is projected to keep growing. Water represents a commercial opportunity as China moves to address these twin challenges. Focus on industrial water solutions Along with the government, the industrial sector plays an important role in the water challenges of today. This is why Aquatech China focuses on industrial end users in iron & steel, pulp & paper, petroleum, chemical & coal, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and the agricultural industries. International and regional pavilions Multiple governmental authorities have considered Aquatech China an important platform to attract international water companies to the Chinese market. The 2014 edition will attract exhibitors from over 70 countries and regions, and will feature pavilions from countries and regions such as USA, Canada, Taiwan, Israel, the Netherlands, South Korea, and Europe. Companies that participate in a pavilion benefit from: ■ Extra exposure ■ Matchmaking opportunities ■ Knowledge sharing and collaboration Powerful trade shows alliances Aquatech China 2014 will be held at the same time as FlowEx China, a top quality international show for pumps, valves and pipes. This combination will attract a large number of high-quality end-users in water treatment equipment and solutions, doubling your business opportunities.
