Amidst the current investment boom, UN climate talks and Brexit, the fine and speciality chemicals industry eagerly awaits their annual get-together at Chemspec Europe 2019 to discuss the latest market trends, technical innovations, business opportunities and regulatory issues in this rapidly changing market.

Taking place 26 – 27 June 2019 at Messe Basel in Switzerland, one of Europe's major hubs for the fine and speciality chemicals industry, Chemspec Europe will gather prominent leaders, innovators and decision-makers in chemicals development, manufacturing and related services, all under one roof.

Now in its 34th edition, the event features the full spectrum of fine and speciality chemicals for various applications and industries, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers, food and feed ingredients, flavours and fragrances, pigments and dyes, paints and coatings, household and cleaning chemicals, adhesives and sealants, petrochemicals, leather and textile chemicals, electronics and many others.

The previous exhibition in 2018 hosted a total of 358 exhibitors and more than 6,000 attendees from all over the world. The exhibitor list for the coming event reveals yet another strong line-up, with the majority of exhibitors originating from Germany and other European countries, including the United Kingdom, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Austria, Ireland and the Netherlands, plus a substantial exhibitor community from the USA and various Asian countries, with India and China amongst Asia's most prominent participants.

Operating in a highly competitive market with complex environmental guidelines, the fine and speciality chemicals industry is currently experiencing a multitude of pressures from various sources whilst benefiting from high levels of investment, especially in green and bio-based technologies. "Many producers are busier than ever, but companies will have to manage change and innovate at unprecedented rates in terms of sustainability and operational excellence.", says Liljana Goszdziewski, Exhibition Director of Chemspec Europe, on behalf of the organisers, Mack Brooks Exhibitions. "With the right mindset, the current challenges can be turned into opportunities for innovation and business growth."

Liljana Goszdziewski continues: "The upcoming Chemspec Europe unites an impressive array of experts, scientists, managers and thought-leaders, all contributing to a powerful and well-known industry platform. Purchasers and agents have the chance to explore the latest technical advancements and to source specific ingredients
