Full success on the US market.

We are very satisfied with the first 4-day trade show (2021 Nov. 16-19.) appearance of Skitrax World in the USA. Only 800 exhibitor numbers showed up for the first IAAPA show in Orlando (Florida) since 2019. About 50% less exhibitors than before the Corona Pandemic. The late opening of US air traffic at the beginning of November had kept many exhibitors from Europe and Asia from participating in the show. 

As a new exhibitor, we are all the more pleased to have been given a top spot in the exhibition hall of the Orange Convention Center. We were also visited by existing customers who have been successfully using our mats in the USA and Mexico for years. In addition to Wolfgang Schmidt, his daughter Svenja Schmidt was also active at the booth to advise customers.

The number of visitors was quite small, as many customers from Central and South America still shy away from the flight to the USA. But the quality of the inquiries and discussions at the booth were excellent. Already at the booth we were able to plan some new projects for tubing tracks, water jumps and ice karting facilities for summer 2022. 

We are planning to participate in the IAAPA show in November 2022.
