One week ago, the organiser of the Platformers’ Days announced that the event is rescheduled to autumn 2021. Nevertheless, they worked on many changes to fulfil the measures of hygiene and distance, they had to postpone the industry trade fair.
The new coronavirus regulation of the Baden-Württemberg state government that comes into force on 1 July 2020 prohibits events with more than 500 people until 31 October 2020. This therefore removes the legal basis on which Platformers’ Days could have taken place on the original dates. The CEO of “Messe Karlsruhe” as well as the project manager were still in hope that it could find place as they worked hard on new routines and measures to provide a full safety for visitors and exhibitors. They developed a smart and comprehensive safety and hygiene plan and presented it to the relevant authorities. However, they didn’t accept their plan.
Unfortunately, as more and more trade fairs get postponed or even cancelled there is only one more international show left we will take place this year: BAUMA CHINA. After our success last year at APEX Asia, we are looking forward to discover the Asian market for mobile lifting and access equipment even more. The event finds place from the 24 to 27 November in Shanghai, China. So far, they organisers confirmed that the event will take place. Nevertheless, we will keep you up to date concerning the current status.
