I’m often asked if there are any must-see plumbing exhibitions to visit overseas and my response is always the same – there is only one decent event at which visitors will never be disappointed.

ISH (International Sanitation & Heating) is held in Frankfurt, Germany every two years. This next event takes place 15-19 March 2010.

While I have tried several times to deliver readers some understanding of this event through the pages of Plumbing Connection and her online at worldplumbinginfo.com, there is only one way to really appreciate ISH and that is to be there.

Over five days, there will be in excess of 200,000 trade visitors attending ISH and viewing the very latest in technology and design ideas across the 2,300 exhibition stands.

You can book tickets and find out more detail at the event website www.ish.messefrankfurt.com

A tip: accommodation in central Frankfurt is very expensive, so don’t be afraid to book outside of the city. There are plenty of quaint villages within a half hour train ride. The excellent rail service brings you into the central station located right next to the Fair Grounds. See you there!
