EB News: 18/08/2015 - 12:45
This programme is set to cater for all sectors of the groundscare industry and will offer a more extensive information-sharing experience than that offered at previous Institute of Groundsmanship (IOG) conferences. A packed timetable will see three dedicated seminar theatres, featuring programmes running from 10am through to 3.30pm each day of the show.
Two further theatres will feature dedicated seminars relevant to those working in the school, play, amenity, parks, arboriculture and forestry environments. The Parks Alliance will give an update on the state and future of the nation's parks and green spaces, while other sessions will include an update on industry groundscare regulations, a question and answer session on pests and diseases while the inspection and safety standards in the play industry will be explored.
At this year's show you will see the very latest products and services from the comprehensive exhibitor line-up of the industry's best suppliers of machinery and tools, vehicles, seeds, turf, aggregates and treatments.
Education Business is an official 'Media Partner' to SALTEX 2015 and will be previewing the show.
