The celebration of the installation industry has come to an end. During the three days of the installation fair block, the exhibition was visited by as many as 14,695 people! Visitors had the opportunity to see many product novelties at exhibitors’ stands, visit thematic zones or take part in numerous industry conferences and technical workshops.
