Let’s go to DIAM & DDM in Bochum! For two days, numerous exhibitors will be presenting the latest trends and developments in industrial valves and sealing technology. The team from the trade magazine ‘IAD – Industriearmaturen & Dichtungstechnik’ will also be there.
DIAM & DDM is experiencing extremely positive growth: compared to 2023, the number of exhibitors has increased to around 160 and the exhibition space has been expanded. Well-known industry players such as ARI, AUMA, BRAY, Bürkert, Flowserve, Pepperl+Fuchs and VEGA will present their products and innovations in the Jahrhunderthalle. Another positive sign is the cooperation with the Association for Plant Engineering and Industrial Services (VAIS).
But it’s not just the products that are a good reason to visit the Jahrhunderthalle in Bochum. In addition to the exhibition, visitors can also look forward to specialist presentations, workshops and a networking evening.
Presentation of the PRIMUS Award 2025
Germany’s leading trade magazine for industrial valves and sealing technology will also be there. We will be bringing along the brand new issue of IAD with lots of information about DIAM & DDM.
The PRIMUS Award 2025 will also be presented in Bochum. A total of seven companies competed in the categories ‘Drives’, “Valves” and ‘Sealing Technology’. If you would like to know who won the public vote, come to the award ceremony in the lecture forum on 12 November at 3:15 p.m.
