"Our first year exhibiting - and we generated 500–600 leads."

“It’s our first year exhibiting at ESS and it’s been a great experience. The show has evolved with younger generations coming in and more advanced products on display. We’ve had strong activity on our stand and generated around 500 - 600 leads. ESS is a central place for the industry to meet, understand changes in legislation and equipment, and reconnect with colleagues.”

"Every year gets busier - the show just keeps growing."

“We’ve been coming for years and every year the show gets busier. It’s been non-stop, with really positive feedback and promising leads to follow up. ESS is the best place to see what’s new, understand industry changes, and view so much in one place. We’d definitely recommend it.”

"Footfall has almost doubled - our busiest ESS yet."

“This has been the busiest ESS we’ve ever seen. Last year had big numbers, but footfall feels almost doubled this year. Because the water quality and environmental monitoring sector moves so fast, there are always new innovations and ideas emerging. Every year there’s something new to discover, and ESS is the perfect place to showcase developments and stay ahead of the pace.”

It’s been quite impressive to see what a huge gathering this is of different sorts of businesses who are all sharing different perspectives, different angles on current challenges.

A great experience. The show was really well organised and gave us the chance to connect with key decision makers from across the industry. It was the perfect platform to showcase what we do, meet the right people, and have some meaningful conversations. We’re already seeing opportunities come out of it and look forward to being part of future events.

As our company is EPR-focused, the circularity talks have been especially helpful, and there’s been lots on UK EPR. The show has been really useful because it covers the topics we’re interested in, like packaging recovery and EPR.

I was pleasantly surprised by the scale of the event, the variety of exhibitors and the footfall. There was certainly a real buzz to the event, and it is certainly a must for anyone in the waste sector and associated industries to visit. The breakout areas and theatres had pertinent content to guide businesses and forewarn as to what is to come. All in all a great event in an accessible location.

One of the most important waste and recycling exhibitions in the UK. A great venue to showcase our products and solutions to the industry. We'd advise anyone in the same industry to take a look at RWM and the other shows under the ESS Expos umbrella.
