In a move unprecedented in UK materials handling and logistics trade shows, Quartz Publishing & Exhibitions has announced that the next International Materials Handling Exhibition in 2010 will work towards being carbon neutral by offsetting the carbon produced by staging the show and by visitor travel to the venue, the NEC in Birmingham.

Materials handling finance specialist, Albury Asset Rentals Ltd, has been appointed principal sponsor of the 2010 International Materials Handling Exhibition (IMHX).

Asset finance provider Albury Asset Rentals has signed a major new sponsorship deal with the organisers of IMHX, the leading logistics event.

Following the resounding success of IMHX 2007 – with a record total attendance of 19,223 and over 350 exhibitors – space at the next show in 2010 is already 55% sold.
