Whether plastic, building materials or water: solutions for the sustainable use of resources are essential for environmental and climate protection - and can be found at IFAT Munich. The world's leading trade fair for water, sewage, waste and raw materials management took place in Munich from May 30th to June 3rd, 2022. 2,984 exhibitors and around 119,000 visitors confirmed the fair as the most important platform for environmental technologies. UNIHA also had a stand in the WKO area where many contacts were made throughout.

When it comes to water, too, everything revolved around sustainable use and closed cycles, for example in industrial production - and in cities that have to arm themselves for extreme drought and heavy rain with intelligent water management. The trade fair showed the technologies for this and in the lecture program more than 300 experts shared their knowledge and there were numerous live demonstrations and guided solution tours.

IFAT Munich occupied all 18 halls and a large part of the outdoor area of the Munich Exhibition Center, a total of 260,000 square meters. 2,984 exhibitors traveled from 59 countries and regions (2018: 3,305/58) and around 119,000 visitors from 155 countries and regions (2018: 142,472/162). Half of the exhibitors and visitors came from abroad. Compared to the previous event, the strong participation from China and Russia was missing. A start-up area brought together 49 start-ups from 16 nations. 15 international joint booths from Europe as well as Japan, Canada, South Korea and the USA exhibited. High-ranking political representatives from Egypt, Belgium and Malaysia, among others, as well as the environment ministers from Brazil and Singapore as well as numerous international delegations attended.
