Marius Berlemann, General Manager of Messe Düsseldorf Shanghai Co., Ltd commented: “We are extremely happy that CIOSH 2021 was able to strengthen its position as Asia’s leading trade fair for occupational safety and health goods and that the cooperation with our partner, the China Textile Commerce Association (CTCA), has developed so successfully. With this year’s event the latest member of the A+A event portfolio proves to be an industry beacon, despite the current impact of COVID-19.”

China has one of the world’s largest labor markets. As the Chinese economy grows rapidly, its industries are increasingly paying attention to safety and health at work. The COVID-19 outbreak has further increased the demand for a wider variety and higher quality of labor protection products among companies. This also provides fresh impetus to the development of the entire safety industry in China.

During the 3-day exhibition, a total of 1,565 exhibitors from 13 countries and regions presented their most advanced technologies and equipment, covering five main areas: Safety at Work, Security at Work, Health at Work, Emergency Rescue Techniques & Equipment and Anti-pandemic Supplies. Aside from the local exhibitors, overseas exhibitors also participated in the event via their Chinese subsidiaries or agents, including 3M, Honeywell, MSA, UVEX, DELTAPLUS, Ansell, Lakeland, BOSCH, SATA, Makrite, Justrite, GVS, JSP, Tienchen, SIR Safety, CTC, TenCate, DEKRA, SKYLOTEC, SAFCO, Sanitized etc. This shows their high recognition of the Chinese market.
