»The Slovak Association for Environmental Equipment, the most important
scientific-technical association operating in the field of the technical equipment of
buildings, welcomed the fact that the famous specialist trade fair AQUA-THERM has started
to operate in Slovakia.
In addition to the annual TZB trade fair in the autumn in Bratislava, a new tradition has
started in Slovakia of a spring trade fair in the area of heating, ventilation,
air-conditioning, sanitary equipment, measuring, regulation and control systems,
technology for the creation and protection of the working and living environment which
offers the latest products and equipment throughout the widest, most comprehensive, range.
The fact that it takes place in the spring is ideal, especially for the reason that the
warm days beginning in May constitute the most important period for the securing of good
heating, air-conditioning and other equipment. In addition to this, there is as yet no
trade fair in Slovakia with the categories specified.«
Prof. Ing. Dušan PETRÁŠ, CSc.
Chairman of SSTP
»Our ministry welcomes the new trade fair, because
Nitra will be added after Vienna and other cities. It is also of importance in terms of
our accession to Europe, because we must liberalise prices even in the field of energy.
One condition for the liberalisation of energy is high-quality regulation equipment and
transfer, distribution and identification equipment.
All of this is exhibited in Vienna, Moscow and Prague; and it will also be exhibited in
Nitra too.«
RNDr. Milan DUBNIČKA
Director of the Electrical Energy and Heat Production
Department of the Ministry of the Economy of the Slovak Republic
»Permanently sustainable growth is the watchword
of the modern age. The main thought behind it is the combination of business activities
with environmental approaches. For this reason, the Ministry of the Environment of the
Slovak Republic regards an increase in environmental awareness as being one of its
political priorities. The economy must be ecological, and ecology must be economical. This
is the reason why I welcome this new trade fair.«
László MIKLÓS
Minister of the Environment of the Slovak Republic
»We were satisfied with the trade fair, and we
can’t criticise the organisers on any points.«
Viessmann, Bratislava
Exhibitor
»We welcomed the organisation of the trade fair
AQUA-THERM in Nitra. The Agrokomplex area represents a very pleasant environment for
exhibitors and the general public.
As it was only the first year of the trade fair, we were not expecting outstanding
commercial results from our participation. But heavy participation by the specialised
public was a pleasant surprise for us. The atmosphere of the trade fair had a positive
influence on our business negotiations, and we were highly pleased with the results.«
Weishaupt, Zvolen
Exhibitor
»No complaints; everything in the best of order.
Keep up the good work. We need more of this type of trade fair with Slovak partners.«
