Editor's Letter: 

Interbrush is our own international friendship and business networking event and the contacts and friendships run deep in our industry. I cannot believe there exists an industry such as ours that has such a mutually supportive combination of excellent and innovative suppliers supporting businesses which make truly useful and indeed essential products. In 2012, Interbrush went from success to success. Apart from Interbrush, there is no other time or place for anyone to have the opportunity of becoming acquainted with all the important trends and innovations of this industry. 

Every exhibitor seemed to share our enthusiasm for Interbrush. Here are a few comments: Andrew MacIlroy of Hahl-Pedex told us:“We were very satisfied with the quantity and quality of the visitors to our stand, especially looking for abrasive and dental care filaments.We showcased 2 new abrasive products and had great interest in this area, so much so, we ran out of printed marketing material after the first day and had to send for more for Thursday and Friday! We are now in the process of following up on the enquiries and sampling. In our dental care and personal care area, we met new potential customers from all over Asia, and are also in the process of following up these contacts”.

Francesco Castagnoli, General Manager Marcegaglia Oskar told us: "The participation to InterBrush has turned out positively for our company. Thanks also to its 4-years schedule, which we believe is appropriate, the exhibition has met our expectations, being the occasion to meet our established contacts as well as new and potential customers, including new players that have emerged during the recent years. The show has also been the ideal opportunity for us to introduce our brand new production line in the Polish plant of Praszka - we were able to collect positive feedbacks by the Eastern European visitors.Overall, the exhibition has confirmed the current market trends, with weak performances in Western and developed countries, and a more lively atmosphere in Eastern Europe and among emerging powers".

Alessandra Corradi of Arix spa commented:“Interbrush is always an interesting fair, a meeting point for specialists…”

Gabriella de Francesci of GDF said: “Interbrush was even more interesting than previous ones, there were much more people really interested in this show”

Francesca Fantozzi of B&Fsrl said: Our impressions about  the fair are: good quality of visitors;,good atmosphere for doing business, we were well received, we would like to see the fair every  2 years, this fair is very important for us its the only fair we participate for our work.

Annemarie Knolmayer of MBK told us: “We really enjoyed the very busy days of the Interbrush 2012 and appreciated the highly interested visitors and customers”. She added: “our machines on the show were very well received especially the new machines for fabric rollers we are developing”.
