The first APEX Asia is to be held parallel with CeMAT ASIA. APEX Asia is an offshoot of the established European APEX.

China and Asia are among the fastest growing aerial platform markets in the world. APEX Asia will be the showcase for manufacturers and dealers to promote modern access equipment to buyers and users across the entire continent. APEX Asia will be located in Hall W5 at CeMAT ASIA with free movement of visitors between the two shows.

APEX is an established and well-liked show on the access industry calendar, but with the Chinese and Asian market developing fast it is clear that this region would benefit from a local show dedicated to access equipment?, said Tony Kenter, Managing Director of IPI.

Since the first APEX in 1996, the fair has played an important role in promoting the access industry and creating a true access community. APEX Asia will bring these same benefits to the Asian market, promoting modern access equipment and developing a mature access industry.

Co-locating with CeMAT is an enormous benefit for APEX Asia. We are taking advantage of established links between the material handling and aerial platform sectors in China, where many early adopters of access come from the industrial truck sector. APEX Asia will expose aerial platforms to an enormous audience of current and potential buyers.
