Pollutec, the international leading show for environmental professionals, a shop window for environmental solutions for businesses, cities and regions, and a launchpad for market innovations and international development, will be held in Lyon, France, from 12-15th of October.
For more than 40 years, Pollutec has been a great source of inspiration for professionals in search of practical solutions and innovation and new connections with key players in the industry.
During 4 days, Pollutec covers a wide range of sectors such as waste management, water management, energy and energy efficiency, contaminated sites and soils, sustainable cities and buildings, air quality, odours and noise, instrumentation, metrology and analysis, risk management and prevention, biodiversity and natural environments, sea and coastline etc.
Pollutec 2021 is an exhaustive seminar programme across 5 key environmental challenges: decarbonisation of industry, management of water resources, biodiversity and businesses, waste management and the fight against soil artificialisation.
In parallel, spurred-on by the success of 2018, the show will replicate its Circular Economy Forum, the stream dedicated to implementing the principles of circularity for cities, regions and businesses. This also provides an opportunity to examine political advances, both at national and European level, and to understand the effects of these legislative changes from different angles.
Ever so popular since its inception in 2016, another show highlight is the Pollutec Innovations Awards showcasing best -in-class innovations from French and international eco-innovative companies.
Punctuating the 4 days, in addition to all the talks, workshops, business meetings etc., Pollutec offers a number of innovative features and educational activities such as:
- The “Gaïatica” Escape Game
- A Water Hub
- Pollutec Sea & Coastline show
- Seas of Plastic show
To date, 27% of visitors who registered for Pollutec are international. They will get the opportunity to meet with more than 300 international exhibitors from 26 countries.
