As in previous years, admission to all three trade shows will be exclusively restricted to accredited trade visitors and PSI members. Members will be able to enjoy the PSI Members Only Lounge, which provides all the services associated with membership as the central point of contact. Beyond this, PSI has many other highlights to

Those interested in a product showcase of the highlights and innovations in the industry should allow for some time to stroll through the Product Presentation aisles during their trade show visit. Up to 200 bestsellers and newcomers from this exhibition segment will be on show here pooled together.
