The first WJA Trade Show taking place in September will provide a strong focus on key issues in the water jetting industry, including health and safety, training and innovations like robotic systems.
The first water jetting exhibition of its kind held by the Water Jetting Association takes place at the StoneX Stadium, North West London, on Thursday 12th September 2024.
The free event will have a strong international flavour with businesses from across Europe joining British exhibitors to showcase latest technologies and applications.
WJA experts and exhibitors will also be giving talks during the one-day event, which follows the WJA annual general meeting being held on Wednesday 11th of September.
Visitors already booked to attend the event come from industrial sectors that rely on water jetting applications, including drainage and water utilities, industrial cleaning, construction, maritime engineering and petrochemicals processing.
WJA Director Leanne Smith said: “We’re very pleased to have attracted such an exciting range of exhibitors to WJA Trade Show 2024.
“We’ve made it a free event because we want as many people from across the sectors that use water jetting to join us in shaping the future of our industry.”
The venue, the home of Saracens Rugby Club, is easy to reach, being located less than 10 minutes from the end of the M1 just off the North Circular Road, and there is free on-site parking for all visitors.
Water jetting contractors, equipment manufacturers, hire specialists, PPE suppliers, and training providers are among the wide range of exhibitors preparing to put on the water jetting show of the year.
WJA Trade Show 2024 organiser Lee O’Callaghan said: “There will be a large external display area where exhibitors will be presenting water jetting machines, including pumps, jetting units and vacuumation units, representing cutting edge technology in our industry.
“Visitors to the WJA Trade Show will be able to meet and network with leading experts and find out about new developments, for example in water jetting robotics, operative safety, and water jetting sustainability.
“A strong theme will be health and safety, as it always is with water jetting, so health and safety professionals who need to know more about safe application of water jetting techniques should definitely attend.”
Information about key developments in WJA support for the water jetting industry, including updates to the Red Code of Practice for drain and sewer jetting, and the launch, in 2024, of the new Pressure Washer Code of Practice, known as the Purple Code, will also be available.
