Ekotech has been caring for ecology and the environment for 25 years. The anniversary expo is on the horizon!

Over 60 companies participated in the previous expo;  visitors to the Kielce exhibition and congress centre had the opportunity to learn about such solutions as a modular reverse automatic vanding machine from AKE Technologies. There was a waste management platform from TwojaBDO, a solar-powered waste bin from CitySolar, an electric garbage truck from the Polish manufacturer Grupa Auto Moto Projekt, a four-wheel system cameras equipped with an artificial intelligence module from Globtrak Polska and many projects presenting the practical dimension of recycling. These are just some of the cutting-edge technologies presented at the expo; the latest solutions can significantly improve local governments' operations and residents' quality of life.

A  rich and diversified Ekotech accompanying events agenda

The International Waste Management Forum has been traditionally held within the scope of Ekotech; the Forum discusses innovative waste collection and control systems and ways to achieve higher recycling levels. There is also a plethora of meetings arranged by Ekolog; of abandoned cars on the streets, preparation of strategic documents for local government units and environmental audits are just some of the issues discussed. Ekotech has also included a training and information conference organised by the FORS Car Recycling Forum Association; the conference has discussed the latest trends and regulations in the vehicle recycling industry, the deregulatory package, and ESG in detail. The Kielce exhibition and Congress Centre is the discussio platform for current industry challenges, such as introducing a deposit system and recycling of photovoltaic panels and lithium-ion batteries. One can also take advantage of free expert advice at the Mobile Information Point of European Funds and participations which can win exciting prizes. Each meeting offers an excellent opportunity to engage in discussions with representatives of public administration, entrepreneurs and people interested in environmental protection and waste management.

Accolades for the industry's best

A permanent point of the Ekotech expo is the gala awarding of medals and distinctions for the most cutting-edge and best industry products. Last year, innovative solutions such as the ZEN electric sweeper, the GT AI Globtrak vision system, an electronic garbage canopy, a mobile electric device for municipal works and a fully electric garbage truck were awarded. Activities for environmental protection and increasing recycling rates were also appreciated. The awards were granted for the thermal transformation of polymer waste and for an educational and information campaign in the waste management offered by MkaszniaZGOK in Janczyce. The upcoming expo will also witness medals and prizes for the best presentations.

The 15th International Environmental Protection and Waste Management Expo – from 8 to April 2025.  13th EXPO-GAS Gas Engineering Fair is held simultaneously.

The topic combining the municipal and gas industries discussed at Targi Kielce is the so-called "green activities", i.e., the pro-ecological use of available resources and opportunities. Combining the Ekotech and the EXPO-GAS will undoubtedly set the direction for developing innovative technologies in individual sectors.
