More or less same old really, The area for warehousing logistics (fork lifts, conveyor belts etc) was larger than the cleaning part from my point of view, the NEC is 2mins down the road from us if we had come from further a field a would not be happy.

Bit small this year really.  Would be a bit disappointed if I had to travel all the way from Scotland.  Luckily, it's only 40 mins for me.

Travelled 140 miles and was very disappointed.  Wanted to see Truckmounts and only found Prochem stand with Two small truckmounts on display.  NO HYDRAMASTER!!

If you're going to see a specific supplier it's probably best to check the list of exhibitors prior to going: -

Nice to meet you today lee, also Mr Knight and Dean, Also met Billy , Ken W and John Kelly.

If your going just to see carpet machines, there isnt much there, Prochem stand was next to the Rug Doctor stand   ;D , Prochem had the new Endeavor there

We've been down there today and to be honest I quite enjoyed it, had some good meetings, booked myself on a hard floor course, gleaned a lot of information off people, looked at upgrading our bin cleaning business etc, etc, enjoyable day.   Thoroughly recommend the panninis in Weatherspoons £5.55 Chicken and bacon and chips

If you went there looking for just window cleaning equipment or carpet cleaning equipment then you'll be disappointed, however if you go there to see "what could I be doing" then there is some good stuff there.

Not impressed with the new Prochem 6.6 machine, massive machine and a bit unwiedly!  Also looked at the sapphire wand, not impressed with that either!!

i went today, in and out in 3 hours. met and talked to judy at ltt leather , spoke to the guys at dry fusion , and I think I have found a good deal on a pressure washer so being as all the companies in question are all over the country it was good to be able to meet them all in one place.

oh and I had a brief chat with paul pierce as well .

Ready for Day 3 we have had a really good show.  Lots of course bookings, Colour Readers walking out the door and great to meet new and old customers.
If you are coming pop by and see our new Leather Recolour - really innovative product that is transforming colour restoration.

Our new Leather Cleaning Concentrate is also receiving a very good response along with our Leather Protector Concentrate both giving exceptionally good value for money.
Cheers

i thought the show was good, a good size to get round, i was there all day yesterday and still did'nt have time to see all the exhibitors, i thought there were some very good new products and kit... i didnt see many people i knew but that was good and gave me a chance to speak to the people at the stands, in the past i spent so much time talking to everyone  that i missed half the show, so it was nice not to get caught up in the chat..got some free samples to try and purchased a few items i know will make cleaning easier and more efficient  thus making more cash.. i thought well worth the trip..
