Helmut Friedrich, Managing Director of ASO GmbH Antriebs- und Steuerungstechnik, is also convinced

by the concept of R+T digital: "In our view as a component manufacturer, the signiicance of R+T

has great weight even on the digital level, so the participation of ASO Safety Solutions is self-evident.

The real-time perception of current market developments and, equally, of our novelties, should not wait."

This view is also shared by Christian Dietl, Head of Technology (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) at

Deceuninck Deutschland: "Our new product PROtex 2.0 is now available. We therefore do not want

to wait until R+T 2022 in order to present it to a broad public. We want to show our presence at R+T

digital and maintain relations with our regular customers, but also to speciically make new contacts."

Sully Briskomatis, Marketing & Communication Manager at the Italian outdoor equipment manufacturer

Corradi, also stresses the importance of the world's leading trade fair: "R+T has always been one of

the most important international trade fairs, and we are conident that the digital edition will also provide

us with new inspiration. This past year has imposed new challenges on all of us and made us change

our thinking, so we therefore believe that people are ready for a digital trade fair and will be able to beneit

from the numerous opportunities presented by the new technologies."

Large number of registrations for the R+T Innovation Award

The entry phase for the R+T Innovation Award was concluded at the end of October. This will be the centrepiece at R+T digital.

On the irst live day, 22 February 2021, the jury will make the inal judgement on the winners, who will be presented with the

award in an exclusive prize-giving ceremony in the evening. Altogether, around 100 entries were accepted from 13 countries for

the pre-judgement in all eleven product categories. The entries are thus on a very high level – as has been the case in the previous

awards. Sebastian Schmid is delighted with the response from the sector: "The number of applicants shows the need in the sector

for companies to be able to present their developed innovations to the specialist public already in February 2021. For this reason,

the presentation of the R+T Innovation Award will be the central focus of the concept of the digital event." The pre-judgement

will take place at the beginning of December, in which the entries will be viewed by the specialist jury and the product nominations

will be decided. For the irst time with this award, several prize winners will be honoured for each category.

The applicants again include renowned companies who have already taken part in the Innovation Award several times, but also

some new companies. In addition, there are long-term R+T exhibitors who have entered their products for the R+T Innovation

Award for the irst time. "Overall, we've got a great mix with the applications! We are delighted that the companies are accepting

and using the opportunities we are ofering with R+T digital. Innovations will again play an important role at R+T 2022,

because the physical face-to-face trade fair will continue to be the trend barometer and highlight of the roller shutters, doors/gates

and sun protection systems sector," adds Sebastian Schmid.
