TRENCHLESS ASIA 2008 Set for April in China TRENCHLESS ASIA is clearly established as the region’s largest and most important meeting for trenchless technology professionals and the third international event to be held in Shanghai, April 16-18,2008,is expected to surpass the two previous successful shows held in 2004 and 2006. As little as 10 years ago, conventional open-cut methods were widely used for the underground utility installation and refurbishment in mainland China. The rapid growth in population, coupled with the aging underground utility services,inspired engineers to study the benefits of trenchless technology. Today, China is the fastest growing worldwide market,with huge potential for overseas exporters. Trenchless technology is known to be used in more than 100 cities in China, with particular emphasis in Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou. The country’s achievements are competing at world levels, undertaking some of the most ambitious projects in terms of complexity, diameter and distance. The biggest HDD in the world is also now in China. As Beijing is set for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, Shanghai prepares for the World Expo in 2010 and Guangzhou for the Asian Games in the same year, these major international events along with many other major projects provide evidence that the construction boom will continue for the foreseeable future. 2010 is also China’s target to realise the first stage of the modernisation process to meet the exploding urban population. TRENCHLESS ASIA 2008 provides a timely focus for the industry to display the world’s finest range of equipment and services used in the installation, repair and refurbishment of urban utility pipelines.
