Meet artec® at the FSB 2021 in Cologne
The international sports and leisure industry will finally meet again in the city on the “Rhein”. The international trade fair for public spaces, sports and leisure facilities will take place at the cologne exhibition centre from 26. to 29.10.2021. This is where the future of the industry is decided every two years – an absolutely unmissable event for artec®! After a long period without events, we are looking forward to see many familiar an new faces at the FSB 2021.
Worldwide trade fair for urban environments
Playground equipment, sports facilities and movement in urban environments – these three major themes of the FSB make the fair an important meeting spot for the whole industry. The latest trade fair in 2019 was attended by over 28,000 national and international guests. On an area of around 60,000 m², 565 exhibitors from 43 countries showcased their products. It is not a surptise that the trends of tomorrow are being set right here.
The “Who is Who” of the industry in Cologne
The huge number of exhibitors from a wide variety of sectors ensures a comprehensive range of products and services at the fair. The presentations from the areas of public places, playground equipment, outdoor fitness, sports surfacing and sports facility construction invite all the relevent industry experts to Cologne. Familiar visitor groups from previous years municiploa officers from the fields of sport, schools, landscaping and urban development. But also gardening and landscaping companies, planning and engineering officers as well as architects will again be strongly represented at the fair. Clubs, sports associations and sports and leisure facilities are also interested in the latest innovations and trends.
Focus on sustainability and the future
The FSB 2021 will once again focus on energy efficiency, resource conservation and handicap accessibility. Thus, the focus is above all on innovative as well as sustainable products and concepts. The expanisive trade fair programme offers, besides other highlights, talks on artificial turf recycling and a wide variety of discussion rounds with people from the world of sports and environment. This is where the solutions for our future will be discussed. In addition to various specialist events, as expected of a sports fair, there will be plenty of opportunities to do some physical exercise. Old well-known and new kinds of sports will be offered to participate on certain fair sections.
Wide range of topics at the FSB 2021
How can public spaces in cities and municipalties be used meaningfully for exercise and movement? The “public spaces” theme world provides answers to these and other questions. In addition to innovative concepts with multifunctional playground items and equipment for outdoor fitness, issues such as accessibility, changes in leisure behaviour and the balance between nature and urbanity will also be in focus. More on the subject of “public spaces” at FSB.
Only doing sports on certain days at prescribed times? Fixed club structures are no longer conceivable for an increasing number of people and can rarely be aligned with their lifestyles. Therefore, physical activity facilities and sports areas of the future should be individually and freely accessible. The “physical activity” theme world at FSB 2021 is concerned with these kinds of concepts. The design of activity trails, parks or even schoolyards is intended to promote the joy of physical movement at all times. More on the subject of “physical activity” at FSB.
The “sports” theme world focuses on the planning of sports grounds and the construction of sports facilities. The advancing individualisation in sport and exercise, climate change and the demands for more safety and hygiene are creating new challenges in this field. Exhibitors from all over the world have dealt with these issues and are now presenting their ideas and solutions for environmentally friendly, safe and inclusive sports and exercise facilities at FSB. Thereby, the main focus is on the use of sustainable materials and technologies. More on the topic of “sports” at FSB.
Sustainable sports facilities with artec®
Sustainability and future-oriented sports facilities are also playing an increasingly important role for us. Therefore, we are particularly pleased when we are given the opportunity to equip ecological sports facilities with our sports equipment. For example, our robust soccer goals are designed for a long durability. A well-engineered construction and careful manufacturing ensure the very high service life. Accordingly, the purchase of new goals is postponed for a long time and resources can be saved. This has also convinced the VFL Sittensen to choose artec® as the supplier to equip their new ecological sports facility. The pilot project of the local authority of Sittensen put the use of sustainable raw materials and the avoidance of microplastics in the centre of the planning. We are proud to be part of this forward-looking project! Which products we exactly delivered to Sittensen, can be read in our article.
