Floodex 2023 was excellent, delivering a decent number of quality leads, from a wide range of sources from Rail to Government Agencies. Simply well done Jon and team Floodex, we look forward to Floodex 2023 and combining with the Waterways Management Show is a real positive move.

I’ve been incredibly busy, we’ve had lots of local authorities interested in the Flood Mobile and property resilience and, actually, I am ‘talked out’.

I was impressed by the quality of attendees who did visit .I am a cynical Scotsman and have exhibited for the last 35 years, I would judge your show as one of the more productive producing real leads and introducing us to new clients and avenues for our team to follow.

I do not say this lightly but by not attending many companies lost out to a great networking event and chances to meet their peers

“We’ve had a great response, we’ve had some good people on the stand and really good leads, so all in a great response.”

- FM Conway

“We target mainly drainage contractors and we’ve had people in that field and have some good leads and opportunities to follow up.”

- SDS

It’s been good to see people face to face again, we’ve made some good contacts, seem some very good people and happy to show our faces again next year.

- Concrete Canvas

We’ve met contractors, project managers and large contracting companies as well. They have been coming on the stand and finding out about products they didn’t know we do.

WELCOME TO THE WATERWAYS MANAGEMENT SHOW

Watch this space

We were delighted with the turnout of exhibitors, speakers and visitors. We have some fantastic quotes from exhibitors, that will be in the video, when completed. Including Waterways Management Show alongside Floodex and Drainage Show, proved to be a successful and well received initiative that we expect to expand dramatically for 2024.

Several companies have already rebooked their space for next year, with some increasing their presence. Others have been signing up on a regular basis  with plenty of new companies, including: Whale Tankers, ROM UK, United Utilities, Genquip, DOA Hydraulic Tools and GFG Gas Detection. We will be next to Homes UK again and we have heard that the Climate Technology Show will be on at the same time, so some crossover of interest again, we are sure.

It is fantastic to know that Canal & River Trust, Institute of Fisheries Management, Rivers Trust and a host of other important organizations will be supporting again.

We are also delighted that the Society of Local Council Clerks (SLCC), will be supporting the event. The SLCC is the professional body for local council clerks and senior council employees for over 5,000 local councils in England and Wales.

Water Quality

Water Quality

It has also been reported that England is now one of the worst places in Europe when it comes to water quality, with just 14 per cent of rivers in “good” ecological condition. It’s not just sewage to blame. Rivers and seas are also being polluted with plastics, urban runoff and agricultural runoff. 

Part of the Waterways Management Show will feature the work being done and future needs to address efforts to minimize the affects of pollution, timely treatment of pulltion incidents and remediation.

Pollution Control

Pollution Control

Only 14% of English rivers meet good ecological status, with pollution from agriculture, sewage, roads and single-use plastics contributing to a dangerous 'chemical cocktail' coursing through our waterways. A

 recent report showed that sewage spills hit their highest level since 2013 last year, with sewage spilling into England’s rivers over a period of 2.6 million hours in 2021 alone, without including spills into the sea.
