Drives & Controls Exhibition and its co-located events has been rescheduled for 25th-27th January 2021, where it will again take place alongside MACH Exhibition.

Ian Atkinson, event director, said: “We have been following UK Government guidelines and working with the rolling advice from the public health authorities and other organisations, but the effects, actual and projected, of Coronavirus are becoming increasingly evident across all aspects of our lives both here in the UK and across the globe. As a responsible events organiser, ensuring the health and wellbeing of all our exhibitors, contractors and visitors (many of whom face travel restrictions) has to be our top priority and it is therefore with reluctance that we have taken the decision to postpone the event until January.”

Atkinson added that current modelling projections suggest that the virus will peak in May/ June and decline thereafter during the following months, allowing exhibitors the opportunity to present their technologies, innovations and solutions in an upturning market with no restrictions on travel. 

He said: “Thank you for your continued support during this unprecedented period and we look forward to working with all our partners to deliver a safe and successful event in January.”

The co-location of events include:

Drives & Controls

Fluid Power & Systems

Air-Tech

Plant & Asset Management

Smart Industry Expo
