MARKET
This year as well, the Domotex Show lived up
to our every expectation
and confirmed
its reputation
as an excellent
showcase for the
consolidation of our
image in the international market. We were quite content with both the number and the quality of the visitors. Domotex is, without a doubt, the reference event for flooring professionals. This opportunity for comparison and exchange exclusively with other operators in the sector helps you maintain your focus, avoid waste of energy, and concentrate exclusively on potential business partners from the most diverse parts of the world who are particularly interested in high quality materials, innovative materials, and Made in Italy design.

The Domotex Show went quite well. We were rewarded with a good number of German clients and also received numerous orders, while also making contacts with potential customers in East Europe, Turkey, Iran, Israel, North Africa, and even the United States. I noticed that there were fewer visitors to Domotex 2014 than in past years. I’d say that this was due to both the fact that the market has changed and that Domotex is now being staged in March in Shanghai and in April in Moscow. Logically enough, I also noticed fewer Chinese parquet exhibitors. Angelo Giangiulio -

Once again, Domotex proved to offer an excellent opportunity
to both make contacts with potential clients at high level from all over Europe and other continents and to consolidate relations with loyal customers. Tover seized this international occasion to present the top products in its range and launch its new flooring systems and solutions in the market, and was awarded with a very warm reception from professionals in the sector as a result.

This was our first participation at the Hannover Domotex Show, and our opinion cannot be anything but positive. Although you hear a lot about the importance of the event, you can’t really appreciate its international dimension and especially all the quality until the day you come and participate yourself. Our stand aroused
lively interest in many operators in the sector, who turned out in large
number from every corner of the globe, attracted by the unmistakably Italian nature of the presentation. Our products, and in particular, the new developments we’d perfected for the occasion were greeted with extraordinary success, demonstrating and confirming just how much Made in Italy production is esteemed by the rest of the world.

FAIR
Progress Profiles participated at the Hannover Show with an impressive stand where it presented its new Proled Systems. Even if Domotex
is Europe’s leading event in the “heated floor” segment, we received fewer visitors than in previous years, perhaps due to the
fact that the show is now being organized in three international editions. Although we at Progress Profiles in Asolo were satisfied with the exhibition on the whole, we think it might not
be a bad idea to schedule Domotex every other year instead of every year.
