The Shared Area is a great place to be found. Smack dab between IFAI Expo and the newest show from the organizers of R + T, Sun Shading Expo North America. If your company works with both audiences, make sure to take advantage of this joint show floor area and reserve your booth in a prime location for leveraging the crossover traffic.
R+T is bringing more than 50 years of expertise in sun shading to the USA. Sun Shading Expo North America will be held concurrently with the IFAI Expo trade show. Sun Shading Expo North America will extend and therefore enhance IFAI Expo by including the components of internal and external sun shading. The core of the new show floor area will be the product groups of roller shutters and accessories, exterior Venetian blinds, internal sun shading systems, insect repellent systems, drives, control systems, building automation and intelligent home systems.
