Full List of Exhibitors

Representatives of manufacturing companies noted the high interest of visitors in domestic equipment and the opportunities for establishing inter-industry connections with other exhibitors.

The Scientific Research Institute of Blade Units (NII LM) specialises in the development and production of pumping and technological equipment, as well as the reengineering of pumps of various types. Sergey Povekvechnykh, the General Director of NII LM, shared his views on the exhibition: "The exhibition helps us show ourselves and observe others. New contacts are made here, and we also confirm old ones. Moreover, we work with units that consist of numerous components and parts, so cooperation is very important for us. At this exhibition, we find companies not only manufacturing pumps but also components, engines, and control systems. We participate in PCVExpo every year, and I want to note that the exhibition is becoming increasingly interesting and diverse."

The Russian manufacturer of pipeline valves, Termoform, showcased equipment in a new field for the company – specifically for the gas industry. Alexey Krutnyak, the Deputy Chief Engineer of the company, talked about the company’s objectives and impressions of the exhibition: "One of our main tasks is to launch new equipment – gas valves. We mainly operate in the heating market, but this year we manufactured and brought a gas valve for main gas pipelines at 100 atmospheres. People approach us because they see that it is domestic production. The impressions from the exhibition are positive – besides product consumers, we also find new partners here: suppliers of metals, manufacturers of drive devices, and sealing devices. It’s a double benefit!"

Another trend of the 2024 exhibition was a significant increase in the number of participants showcasing compressor equipment: 33 companies presented their products this year.

The international industrial holding Dalgakiran demonstrated high-pressure piston compressors of the DDK series and screw oil compressors of the IMPETUS series. Anton Yakushev, the Project Sales Manager of compressor installations, expressed satisfaction with the exhibition results: "At the end of the two days, we have already potentially reached the contract stage worth 1-1.5 million euros. PCVExpo is a good springboard. After the exhibition, we always increase the number of deals and new clients."

The company SibTorgService presented both new and already popular models of Dali and CrossAir compressor equipment. Andrei Galitsky, the Head of the Sales Department, highlighted the importance of the exhibition as a communication tool: "Today, when we are increasingly forced to communicate online, it is so valuable to occasionally meet in person and talk about our products: showing equipment live and answering questions on the spot. Based on the number of guests at PCVExpo, we see that it’s interesting not only for exhibitors but also for visitors. For us, participation in the exhibition has become a good tradition – an important annual event, the value of which is undeniable."
