New date for INTERSCHUTZ: June 2022

The dates for INTERSCHUTZ have been changed, with the event now taking place from 20 to 25 June 2022. The decision to reschedule the world’s leading trade fair fire, rescue, civil protection and safety/security was taken by Deutsche Messe after a process of thorough deliberation and intensive discussion with key market players. In a context that has affected numerous other trade fairs and events, the move was driven by the latest developments in the global status of the COVID 19 pandemic.

“Flagship trade fairs like INTERSCHUTZ have a long-range planning horizon and require a lead time of several months. In addition, the industries that participate at INTERSCHUTZ, either as exhibitors or visitors, are among the people most heavily involved in dealing with the current pandemic across the globe,” comments Dr. Andreas Gruchow, Member of the Deutsche Messe Managing Board. “INTERSCHUTZ takes place every five years. The community of people involved in fire and rescue services as well as civil protection has been eagerly awaiting the next edition of the event. Against this background, the decision to reschedule was a difficult one. But a series of intensive discussions with our partners and exhibitors as well as representatives of key visitor target groups made clear to us that this move was unavoidable. A staging of the event in the summer of 2022 has been welcomed by all stakeholders. This is the only way we can offer everyone the necessary planning security for their trade fair appearance. A flagship fair like this one thrives on a large number of international visitors and, in particular, face-to-face encounters. Based on the current international travel restrictions, our clients would not be able to adequately prepare for such a major, globally significant trade fair,” Gruchow concludes.

“The auspices for INTERSCHUTZ have been excellent for a long time,” adds Martin Folkerts, Global Director of INTERSCHUTZ at Deutsche Messe, continuing: “We had already signed up a record number of exhibitors for the originally planned edition of the event in June 2020. We are confident our exhibitors will now join us in organizing INTERSCHUTZ 2022, which will be staged for the first time as a hybrid event. The pandemic has made us all aware of the importance of the fire department, rescue services and civil protection. In addition, we expect significant increases in investment in these sectors all over the world, which will present the ideal conditions for our marketplace. More than any other event, INTERSCHUTZ thrives on personal contact and direct networking. It is THE platform for the worldwide community.”

“The manufacturers of fire fighting technology within the VDMA expressly welcome the postponement of INTERSCHUTZ to 2022. For us, INTERSCHUTZ is the most important international trade fair for the industry. And our expectation is that it will seamlessly follow on from the great success of 2015. We are certain that the conditions will be in place in 2022. Our highly innovative industry will have numerous exciting new products in its program by then. And the German and international visitors will make INTERSCHUTZ 2022 the big live event of the year as we know it,” said Dr. Bernd Scherer, Executive management member of the German Mechanical Engineering Industry Association (VDMA) and Managing Director VDMA Fire Fighting Equipment, commenting on the new date of INTERSCHUTZ in June 2022.

Dirk Aschenbrenner, President of the German Fire Protection Association (vfdb), also welcomes the decision to postpone INTERSCHUTZ until 2022: “Our emergency services are and will continue to be extremely busy in the coming months. As we know, INTERSCHUTZ is always a welcome opportunity for thousands of them to obtain information, exchange experiences and network. None of this would be possible at present in this tense situation. However, without the many visitors, including those from the non-material world, INTERSCHUTZ would not be what it has always been. Exhibitors also appreciate the direct contact with those who ultimately use their products and services. The industry needs this exchange between suppliers and users“.

Dieter Siegel, CEO of Rosenbauer International AG, welcomes the new date for INTERSCHUTZ in the summer of 2022: “Unfortunately, the COVID-19 crisis still has a firm grip on all of us and does not yet allow us to hold trade fairs and major events safely at the present time. However, the safety and health of people is of course our top priority as a system provider in fire and disaster control. We are therefore in favor of postponing INTERSCHUTZ until 2022, because we all want nothing more than an INTERSCHUTZ as we know it: an unforgettable trade show experience and a meeting place for fire departments from all over the world, without compromising on the safety of our customers, visitors and guests“.

The next INTERSCHUTZ will take place from 20 to 25. June 2022 at the Hannover Exhibition Grounds.

The activity in the Covid-19 era from the voice of the protagonists: from the REAS webinars a signal of trust for the emergency sector

REAS has always been alongside the protagonists of emergency management and even more in such a delicate moment in which operators and volunteers are engaged in the forefont for the containment of the spread of Covid-19.

Waiting for the next edition postponed for a year and to be held from 8 to 10 October 2021, on Friday 2, Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 October, REAS has promoted a program of conferences, seminars and online courses dedicated to some key issues of the sector, considering expertise gained over the last few months in the coping of the pandemic Covid-19. The events proposed by voluntary organizations and associations were followed by the REAS website and Facebook page during the days of 2, 3 and 4 October. A virtual moment to send a real message of resilience and trust.

On Friday 3 October, at 10 am, the Italian Red Cross proposed the seminar entitled “Emergency and Information Management during the response to Covid-19“. The experience of the Italian Red Cross in this phase was illustrated in detail by dr. Lorenzo Massucchielli, Head of CRI Planning.
In the afternoon, with the seminar entitled, “The volunteer between old and new PPE” promoted by AiFOS Civil Protection, the REAS audience had the opportunity to explore one of the most interesting topics for those who work today in the world of volunteering. The interventions of dr. Stefano Farina, vice president of AiFOS Civil Protection, and of dr. Daniela Panariti, RSPP and consultant on safety in the workplace, offered an exhaustive overview on PPE and how to manage them in the Covid era

Friday ended with the seminar edited by the Italian Relief Corps of the Order of Malta entitled “COVID-19: the experience and activities in the CISOM territory“.

Saturday 3 October was dedicated to the fourth edition of the AIB national round table dedicated to forest fire fighting, an event that for years, during REAS, has brought together the main characters from all over Italy. This year the appointment took place in an unprecedented online formula which involved, under the skilful direction of Franco Pasargiklian, director of the magazine “La Protezione Civile Italiana”, AIB representatives of the stations of the Liguria Region, Lombardy Region, Puglia Region, Piedmont Region and Tuscany Region. dr. Dario Negro brought the greeting of the head of the National Civil Protection Department Angelo Borrelli. A lot of testimonies and different experiences emerged from the various interventions and activities carried out in recent months, with the aim of carrying out a series of concrete proposals to make the management of the fire emergency even more coordinated and effective.

The round table had an international scope thanks to the initial speech of Andreas Züge, general manager of Hannover Fairs International GmbH, co-organizer of REAS together with Centro Fiera di Montichiari, and to the greeting recorded by Germany by Dirk Aschenbrenner, president of VFDB, the German Association for the Fire Protection. At the end of the works, the director of the Centro Fiera di Montichiari Ezio Zorzi launched the proposal to promote the “AIB general states” of forest fire prevention on the occasion of REAS 2021, involving all the representatives of the twenty Italian Regions in a great moment of discussion, as well as organizations and associations from abroad.

The seminar proposed by the Province of Brescia entitled “What to know to manage a volunteer organization of Civil Protection” concluded REAS online events on Sunday 4 October with. Despite some technical unforeseen events due to bad weather that initially delayed the connection, Giovanni Sala, coordinator of Civil Protection groups, summarized all the fundamental aspects to be taken into consideration in order to properly manage the administration of the OGV.

Within the next few days, all webinars can be reviewed on the website reas.tmediasupport.com/ in order to provide everyone the opportunity to listen to or to watch the various contributions.

“The initiative turned out to be a successful experiment” explains Gianantonio Rosa, president of Centro Fiera S.p.A.. “The world of emergency is closely linked to REAS. While waiting for the 2021 edition, it was important to send a message of trust that would reach all volunteers and operators who dedicate their energy and commitment to the benefit of all of us. Their enthusiasm motivates us to work with even more conviction for the next edition of REAS which will be held from 8 to 10 October 2021.”
