And it looks back on an impressive history. Today&#8217;s world-leading trade fair has its roots in 1920, when it was launched by the Deutsche Gesellschaft f\u00fcr chemisches Apparatewesen. Back then still a small event that mainly attracted German companies, the Achema has developed over the decades into a truly global institution, always mirroring the industrial developments in the chemical sector.<\/p><p>With the upswing of the post-war economy, the trade fair then also began to grow internationally in the 1950s. From then on, companies from all over the world made their way to Frankfurt to present their latest developments and make contacts. Even back then, the trade fair&#8217;s innovative power was astonishing: many of the technologies considered standard in the chemical industry today were first presented at the Achema.<\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"rg-h-2\">The Path to the Modern Era<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The introduction of new exhibition areas and the continuous adaptation to the needs of the sector demonstrate the Achema&#8217;s ambition to stay on the pulse of the times. Topics such as environmental technology, biotechnology and, most recently, digitalization have become integral parts of the trade fair program and reflect the changing challenges facing the industry. The impressive key figures prove that the world&#8217;s leading trade fair has not gone out of fashion: every three years, over 100,000 visitors flock to Frankfurt to find out about the latest trends and technologies. With an exhibition area of more than 110,000 square meters, the trade fair offers plenty of space for presenting groundbreaking innovations and discussing the industry&#8217;s most pressing questions.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"rg-fig\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/wpunktmessebau.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/achema_messe_2-1-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"rg-img\" alt=\"There is a lively bustle at the exhibitors' stands in the busy Achema congress center.
