2026 will be the year of IFAT for econ industries: in addition to participating in our home tradeshow IFAT Munich in May, we are pleased to announce our presence at IFAT Saudi Arabia in Riyadh, from 26. – 28. January, 2026.

Held every two years, IFAT Munich is the world’s leading trade fair for environmental technologies and the largest global platform for innovations in water, sewage, waste, and raw materials management. With more than 3,000 exhibitors and over 140,000 visitors from around the globe, IFAT Munich is the central meeting point for industry leaders, technology providers, and decision-makers in the recycling and waste management sector.

Now for the very first time, the world’s leading trade fair for environmental technologies will take place in the Gulf region. This marks an important milestone for the industry and underlines the growing importance of sustainable solutions for waste management and recycling in the Middle East.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with its ambitious Vision 2030 strategy, is setting new benchmarks in the field of hazardous waste recycling and circular economy. Being part of IFAT Saudi Arabia is therefore a great opportunity for us to present our VacuDry® technology and solutions for hazardous waste management facilities, exchange ideas with regional stakeholders, and contribute to shaping a more sustainable future in the region.

Our participation also reflects our growing commitment in the region: econ industries has already delivered solutions to Saudi Arabia, and we are currently in the process of supplying a VacuDry® 12 000 for the recycling of oily wastes to Qatar. Together with our appearance at ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi in November 2025, IFAT Saudi Arabia will be one of the major highlights in our calendar for the GCC region in the next 6 months.

We look forward to welcoming visitors to our booth in Riyadh and to sharing our expertise in safe and sustainable recycling of hazardous industrial wastes. Read more about IFAT Saudi Arabia here.
