Messe Essen GmbH Past Events

The world`s leading horticultural trade fair revolves around solutions and innovations in the green sector. The International Plant Fair has been held annually at Messe Essen since 1983. Here exhibitors increasingly present products that are sustainable and suitable for climate change. These include heat- and cold-tolerant plant and shrub varieties, environmentally friendly and resource-saving packaging solutions, organic fertilisers and substrates, air-cleaning, easy-to-care for indoor plants and pots made of sustainable and biodegradable materials.

The international trade fair for plants (IPM ESSEN) is the world’s leading trade fair for horticulture. It is the only specialist trade fair of its kind to cover the entire value chain of plants, including production, technology, floristry, garden features, and the point of sale. No other plant fair offers trade visitors such a comprehensive market overview and so many multifaceted novelties. At the next IPM ESSEN, taking place from 27 to 30 January 2015 in Essen, more than 1,500 exhibitors from 50 countries and trade visitors from more than 100 countries are expected once again. The international trade fair for plants is represented with additional events in Moscow, Dubai, Beijing and Bangalore.

IPM ESSEN - the world`s leading trade fair for horticulture - will be the meeting place for the green sector. Here, exhibitors from all over the world present their innovative products and services in the fields of plants, technology, floristry and garden features. No other fair offers so much plant diversity and so many plant innovations. Climate change and sustainability are the defining themes here.
