The nearly 5,000 visitors from 40 nations who flocked to the just-concluded 7th annualOS+H Asia (Occupational Safety and Health Exhibition for Asia)had plenty to peruse; 138 exhibitors from 19 countries showcased a wide variety of technology and innovations for the occupational safety and health sector.

Those exhibitors represent a whopping 22% increase over the 2008 OS+H Asia – a testament, say organizers, to the growing demand for new and better products for the work safety sector in Asia. Since the trade show’s launch in 1998, visitor attendance has grown by 15%, with this year’s the highest turnout yet.

Gernot Ringling, Managing Director of Messe Düsseldorf Asia (the organizer of OS+H Asia), commented: “We are pleased with the remarkable results and are optimistic that OS+H Asia will grow even larger in size and importance in Asia. We are grateful for the strong support and excellent cooperation among all our international as well as local partners and exhibiting companies. We will continue to work with the industry to make OS+H Asia a simply must attend event in Asia.”

The Singapore WSH Conference 2010 (organized by the Singapore’s Workplace Safety and Health Council and the Ministry of Manpower) and the Forum on Safety & Health (jointly organized by the Singapore Institution of Safety Officers and Messe Düsseldorf Asia) complemented the OS+H Asia 2010 exhibits.
