An Important International Event for the Chemical Sector

The chemical world has an important appointment from 25 - 27 November 2009 at fieramilano, Rho: CHEM-MED. The fair responds to the needs and demands of companies, universities and centres of technical innovation of the sector, which have, for some time now, been requesting an important event of this kind in Italy, one of the leading companies in Europe. Italy is the third producer of chemicals in Europe, after Germany and France. In this country, chemicals, with production worth more than EUR 57 billion, represents 6% of the industry, while the chemical market has almost reached EUR 69 billion. The sector employs 127,000 people, equal to 2.8% of industrial production. These are important figures, which explain the request of operators for a show able to become, in Italy, a reference point for companies and professionals of the sector who are particularly interested in the important market of the Mediterranean area.
