Growing numbers for Fakuma
More than last year, less than the pre-covid peak: 39,343 visitors came to the 28th edition of Fakuma, the plastics trade fair held in Friedrichshafen, Lake Constance, from 17 to 21 October.
The number of exhibitors was also somewhere in between pre- and post-covid, with 1,636 companies, 10% more than the previous edition (but there were 1,933 in 2018). Numbers that on the whole satisfied the organisers.
44% of those exhibiting at this year’s fair were non-German, and Italians, with 134 companies present, led the contingent of foreign exhibitors, followed by the 120 from China, 79 from Switzerland, 70 from Austria, 58 from Turkey and 55 from France.
