WHAT THE EXHIBITORS THINK
> "Expo-bâches 2006 fully lived up to our expectations."
Daniel J. G. Campeau, Vice-President of Forsström HF AB
"We have distributors in 45 countries around the world and the Expo-bâches internationalization in 2006 lived up perfectly to our expectations. So many languages were being spoken in the aisles that it felt just like home!
We’ve been taking part in Expo-bâches right from the start and we're delighted with its development. As our specific target is installers and fabric outfitters, the advantage of Expo-bâches for us is that it concentrates on just that. We presented several new products at Expo-bâches 2006, notably in terms of software aids to production. The Platinium schemes were a very successful innovation."
Sweden-based Forsström High Frequency AB — under CEO Peter Forsström — develops, manufacturers and sells high-frequency PVC and PU welding machines.

> "Expo-bâches is really something else"
Yvonne Heinen-Foudeh, Gerber Technology
Director of Marketing and Communications — Manager for Europe, the Middle East and Africa
“Gerber Technology France is an old-timer at Expo-bâches, but personally this was my first visit and I discovered what I can only call a 100-percent-useful salon. At Expo-bâches you really do feel you're meeting the decision-makers — the ones you can have useful, fruitful discussions with. For me Expo-bâches is really something else — I think the explanation lies in the fact that it was designed and organized by people who are active in our market and understand our needs better than anybody else. The Platinium formulas are a good example of what I mean. Gerber Technology will obviously be at Texwork® in 2008… maintaining the venue in Strasbourg suits us just fine."
Gerber Technology designs and manufactures the biggest brand names in integrated hardware and software for the fabric making-up and flexible materials businesses.

> "This year we went for a direct presence."
Bruno Dillier, Sales and Leister Applications Manager
"The Leister Group has always been present at Expo-bâches, but we've always been represented by our distributors. This year we wanted to participate directly because we had the feeling — quite rightly — that it was more and more the place to be in the world of European technical fabrics. The choice of Strasbourg tipped the scales for us and we are very pleased to have been able to meet our end-users face to face. Exchanges like this are very productive and the Platinium programmes give them even more substance."
The Leister Group is a Swiss company that designs and manufacturers a very wide range of soldering irons.
