The new trade fair OS+H Middle East will debut from October 12 - 14, 2026 in Dubai. With this event specifically for the occupational safety & health sector, Messe Düsseldorf is expanding its international network for safety and security at work on one of the world’s most dynamic markets. Messe Düsseldorf is renowned as the organizer of A+A, the leading trade fair for this sector, taking place every two years in Düsseldorf, Germany.  

OS+H Middle East will be held at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) providing a new, high-caliber platform for exchange between business, industry experts as well as government institutions. It will focus on current topics such as smart PPE, digitalization and AI-based OSH solutions, exoskeletons and ergonomics as well as sustainable working environments and  human-centered technologies.

"With OS+H Middle East we are expanding our portfolio in a strategically important region with great growth potential. It is gaining increasing importance as a hub between Asia, Africa and Europe. For our customers this creates direct access to a market that heavily invests in occupational safety, occupational health and future technologies,” stated Marius Berlemann, Chief Operating Officer at Messe Düsseldorf.

High-impact global networking

Occupational safety has long been an international issue – and the global A+A network offers  companies strong platforms to enter new markets. At the center of this network is A+A in Düsseldorf, Germany, as the world leading event for safety and health at work. It is complemented by regional formats in relevant growth regions that bring together experts, companies and decision-makers locally and open up access to new target groups.

Our events foster international exchange, strengthen  confidence in innovative technologies and open up new market opportunities for companies in a dynamically growing environment,” said Daniel Feische, Director of A+A and the international portfolio.
