SULPHUR 2012 Conference + Exhibition

The world's leading sulphur and sulphuric acid annual event

SULPHUR 2012 will bring together representatives from a wide variety of disciplines within the industries which produce and use sulphur and sulphuric acid from all over the world. The three day programme will review the status of the world sulphur and sulphuric acid industries and markets and their prospects. Showing alongside the conference will be a large scale exhibition of products, technology, equipment and literature for the sulphur and sulphuric acid industries.

This is the biggest annual networking event in the industry - over 600 professionals attended the 2011 event in Houston and we anticipate an even more influential audience in Berlin.
