Exhibitor Testimonials

PTXi 2010 was a great Show for 3i’s Technologies. As a fairly new company introducing new products and services, we found that PTXi provided great visibility and good traffic through our booth. Before the end of the show we had several hot leads return to the booth for a second time to request additional information.  As a result, one customer visited directly after the Show. We were happy with the quantity and quality of leads.  Show management and RES were very helpful with organizing our booth.  We held a Press Conference in the Booth that was very well attended—another nice opportunity provided by the Show.
Kathy Hunter, Marketing Consultant, 3i’s Technologies, Inc.

MATSUBO, EXEN, FUJISAKI Electric, ACO, and NISSHIN Engineering cooperatively exhibited at the AAAmachine booth while MATSUSHIMA Machinery Laboratory exhibited at an individual booth, supported by AAAmachine.  It was very successful! We received a total of 407 leads, a 78% increase from 2008. With the PTXi exhibition focused on the powder & bulk solids field, we expect more new attendees and more exhibitors from all over the world in 2012.
Dr. Carl K. Ishito, President, AAAmachine, Inc.

2010 was the first time Admix exhibited at the Powder & Bulk Solids show.   We were pleased with the overall traffic at the show as well as the high quality of visitors who stopped by our booth. 
Sue Foskitt, Marketing Manager, Admix, Inc.

Being a first-time exhibitor at the International Powder & Bulk Solids show in 2010, we were very pleased with the number of highly-qualified leads and interest in our line of Inovair aerodynamic blowers and the energy savings potential they offer. The event staff and organizers were also very helpful and made our first event very worthwhile. This is a great show for powder and bulk solid handling technology and solutions and we will be returning in 2012.
Ken Jones, CEO, Air Innovation Research / Inovair Aerodynamic Blowers

The Powder Show provided a breadth of attendees, applications and vendors more than other shows.  The show generated new ideas and was forward-thinking for new products and improvements to existing products.  We saw serious clients with serious interests, which is a true measure of a trade show. In this time of economic uncertainty, the show allowed us to restate our commitments to our existing customers and focus on the benefits that we can offer in terms of energy and water needs, environmentalism and responding to emerging markets.   We uncovered new ideas to further develop the BHS process technologies that enable a greener future.  Finally, we gained exposure to new clients and found pockets of capital investment opportunities from start-up companies to fortune 500 companies.
Barry A. Perlmutter, President & Managing Director, BHS-Filtration Inc.

The 2010 PTXi Show in Chicago this past May proved to be a very good exhibitor decision for Carter Day International, Inc.  The show hall was filled with key customers in need of high end processing solutions.  We were allowed to network with several key contacts and to show case our display equipment and manufacturing capabilities.  This year, PTXi was not about location, but it was simply about being present as the quality of leads was abundant.
Todd Kipfer, Sales Engineer Jacobson Products, Carter Day International, Inc.

Although Chilworth Global has been participating in the show for a number of years, this was my first visit to the show.  I found that the event matched Chilworth with their targeted audience, and provided our company with some quality leads.  The flow of participants included not only the attendees, but exhibitors as well.  Some of our most valuable leads were the exhibitors themselves.  The team that organized the show was very helpful, professional, and provided me with an extremely enjoyable experience.
Lorraine Mahon, Director of Business Operations, Chilworth Global

We have attended the PBS Show for 20 years and the 2010 Show was the best we’ve seen in many years.  The variety of industries visiting our booth was exciting and the quality of contacts we made was tremendous.  Projects we haven’t worked on for years have come back to life! We met company Presidents, the VP of Operations, and Production & Process Engineers from all over North America with active projects. Continental Products is looking forward to the 2012 show!
William J. Callaghan, Show Manager, Continental Products Corp.

We were very impressed with the turnout and quality of leads that have originated from the PTXi show. Because our rapid-imaging particle analyzer is used in a variety of industrial applications, we look to exhibit at venues that can provide us with the greatest exposure to many of our target markets, and that is exactly what PTXi offers.  Since the show, we have been responding to numerous leads from high-quality decision-makers interested in our FlowCAM , and even though our sales cycle can be lengthy, this event helps shorten our cycle by offering a quality venue to demonstrate our instrument.
Lew Brown, Marketing Director, Fluid Imaging Technologies, Inc.

Hardy Instruments has been exhibiting at the International Powder Bulk Solids show for a number of years. Canon Communications really outdid themselves with the 2010 show, bringing in a well-rounded mix of attendees. Hardy had a steady flow of qualified precision-instrumentation prospects to our booth.  We have already made a number of sales that were specifically generated from the Powder Bulk Solids show with additional opportunities for other projects due to close in 2010.
Diane Kahler, Marcom Specialist, Hardy Instruments

The 2010 PTXi show was again well organized and professionally handled.  The organizers were very successful at attracting qualified and funded attendees.  The show, from set-up to tear-down, went extremely smooth.  Everyone associated with the show was very helpful and extremely friendly.  HORIBA is looking forward to visiting Chicago again to attend the next PTXi Show.
Darlene Styers, Marketing Supervisor, Horiba Instruments, Inc.

We were very satisfied with the traffic.  The quality of the attendees led to a great number of qualified leads and RFQ’s.  The venue is centrally located, which allows our Channel Partners to attend and gain education on product and corporate developments.  We had already committed to the 2012 event prior to the start of the 2010 show- a commitment that was reinforced throughout the show with the solid ROI we are already experiencing.
Dennis O’Leary, Director of Sales & Marketing, Industrial Magnetics, Inc.

We were very surprised by the activity at the PTXi show this year. Customers were coming to our booth with drawings, quote requests and project details to share. The show definitely exceeded our expectations! 
Peter Lorenz, President,  Lorenz Conveying Products

The benefits of attending the show far exceed the investment.  We came back with many, many “hot” leads, meaning visitors who were in our booth with drawings in hand and an immediate need to buy.  Interacting and finding new companies is just one of our goals.  We also look at the PTXi as a means to solidify and renew relationships with current and former customers.  
Ellen Kominars, Marketing Coordinator, Magnetic Products, Inc.

We again were pleased with the quality of the attendees at the recent PTXi Show. The overall quantity and quality of the attendees was better than expected given the current economic conditions. The show was well run and we appreciate the efforts of everyone involved in making it a successful event.
Thomas J Hofman, Vice President, Material Transfer & Storage, Inc.

MoistTech experienced a very high interest in our online and off-line process moisture sensors.  We had more visitors to our booth than any previous show during recent years.  Powder Bulk Solids is an extremely strong market for MoistTech and because of the volume and high quality of attendees, we are already looking forward to exhibiting in 2012.  We would like to thank everyone in Canon Communications for making PTXi 2010 such a successful show!
Adrian Fordham, Sales Manager, MoistTech

International Powder & Bulk Solids continues to be a solid show for us to attend! The attendees that came to our booth brought quality leads and possibilities for new sales for our company. We already signed up for 2012!
Melissa Hjelle, Marketing Specialist, Rice Lake Weighing Systems

The 2010 International Powder & Bulk Solids show was one of the best Powder Shows that we’ve experienced in recent history. The attendee booth traffic was at times overwhelming, which is a rare occurrence at any show these days. Before the doors even closed on Day Two, we had our first confirmed order from the show. It has been a long time since we’ve had that experience at any exhibition and we expect many more orders to come as lead follow-up progresses. To say the least, it was a great show for Sweco and we have already booked our spot for 2012.
Jeff Dierig, Global Marketing Manager, Sweco, a business unit of M-I L.L.C.

PTXi gave Taylor Products, a division of Magnum Systems, an invaluable opportunity to sit down one-on-one with key decision makers within the industry to discuss up coming projects. Displaying and demonstrating equipment at the show gave our customers a new sight to our full capabilities, which have already turned into key opportunities.
Gary Saunders, V.P. Sales and Marketing, Taylor Products

The 2010 PTXi / Powder Show exceeded UniTrak’s expectations.  Although, the number of visitors to our booth did not increase over the last show, the quality was greatly improved.  We were able to meet key decision makers from many major corporations, and they have specific funded projects for 2010!  Without this show, we would not have had the opportunity to quote our TipTrak bucket elevator for these upcoming projects.
Marie Lytle, Marketing Team Leader, UniTrak Corporation Limited

I was pleasantly shocked at the level of leads we had at the show. We reached our goal at 11:30 am on Wednesday and then added plenty of gravy on top of that.
Bob Grotto, President, Virto/Elcan Industries

It was a successful show for us – good contacts, well organized. It was worth it to fly over from Germany!
Klaus-Michael Goehler, Advertising Manager, Vogel Business Business Media GmbH & Co. KG

PTXi 2010 was a great show for Vortex Valves.  It was a great opportunity to showcase our innovative valve solutions to key decision makers in the industry.  We are looking forward to another great show in 2012!
Jason Marcotte, VP – North American Sales, Vortex Valves North America, a Division of Salina Vortex Corporation
