There are now 18 exhibitors committed to September’s Wastewater Equipment Fair, a new event sponsored by COLE Publishing where companies can perform live equipment demonstrations. The fair will be held Sept. 12 and 13 at Wisconsin State Fair Park in Milwaukee.

“Planning is going great,” says Brad Bisnette, fair coordinator. “The first exhibitors jumped at the opportunity to get their equipment working on site right in front of customers. Milwaukee is an easy location with a lot of population nearby and the facility has been very accommodating so far.”

Exhibitors signed up so far include:

• Allan J. Coleman Co.
• Aries Industries
• CUES
• Franklin Electric / Little Giant / FPS
• GapVax
• Hammerhead Trenchless Equipment
• Hi-Vac Corporation
• Imperial Industries
• IMS Robotics GmbH
• Liberty Pumps
• LMK Technologies
• Milwaukee Rubber Products, Inc.
• Nozzteq
• Oceanquip Cables
• Perma-Liner Industries
• Picote Solutions
• RODDIE Inc.
• SewerParts.com
• Spartan Tool
• Super Products LLC
• Transwest
• TRIC Tools, Inc.
• US Jetting
• Vac-Con
• Vector Technologies
• Wacker Neuson Corporation
• Zoeller Pump Company

Bisnette says he expects that list to grow in the near future.

“There are a handful of other potential exhibitors working to decide what piece of equipment they want to bring,” he says. “I see quite a few more jumping on board in the next couple of weeks.”

Exhibitors have until May 1 to get discounted rates for both open and tented spaces. Attendees can register for $20 before Sept. 10 and $30 after that date.
