The filtration and separation supply chain concentrates technologies from membranes to industrial air cleaning systems. In November, Cologne gathers global suppliers to present equipment and processes related to surface treatment and filtration engineering.
Dates and venue in Cologne
Filtech 2027 takes place from 16 to 18 November 2027 at Köln Messe. The show runs across three days with halls allocated to machinery and industrial solutions.
Exhibitor profile and international reach
Filtech 2027 brings together more than 600 exhibitors and features membrane suppliers, industrial filter manufacturers, activated carbon providers and specialists in solid-liquid separation. The exhibitor list includes companies from 39 countries, underlining the event’s international scope.
Exhibitors cover air cleaning systems, nonwovens producers and surface treatment equipment suppliers. That mix is relevant for plant buyers, engineering firms and maintenance managers seeking components and integrated solutions.
Technical programme and short courses
The event pairs the exhibition with a Conference Programme 2027 and plenary sessions. Short courses address technical topics such as solid-liquid separation, air cleaning and dust separation, and the world of nonwovens. This combination allows attendees to balance commercial meetings with technical sessions that inform procurement decisions.
How to prepare B2B prospecting at Filtech 2027
Set clear objectives before arrival. Use the exhibitor list to identify manufacturers of critical parts for your production lines and schedule product-focused meetings rather than generic introductions. Bring technical specification sheets and application notes; technical discussion often drives purchasing decisions in manufacturing sectors.
Block meetings by theme: filtering materials and membranes in the morning, surface treatment equipment in the afternoon. Use short courses to validate technical capabilities with key contacts and to generate targeted conversation starters for follow-up.
Key figures
