Organisers of the Pet & Aquatics Trade Show (PATS) maintain that the Aquatics Zone at this year’s show will be “bigger and better than ever” as the exhibition moves to its new home at the NEC Birmingham.
UK and international suppliers already confirmed to exhibit in the dedicated Zone include: ALF, Anglo Aquatic Plant, Aquadip, Aquafleur/Colombo/Superfish, Aqualogy, Aquatlantis, Bermuda/Certikin, Cloverleaf, Gioia Shrimp, J&K Aquatics, Monkfield Reptile, Norwood Aquarium, NT Labs, okpet.co.uk/Fish Systems, Peregrine Livefoods, PondXpert, sera Group, Tropica Aquarium Plants, Velda and Zoo Med Laboratories.
German supplier Sera Group will use PATS 2025 as a platform to exhibit its expanded ranges, including the Blagdon and Aquagarden brands it recently acquired from Interpet.
Jorge Rivas, Sera’s sales manager for Europe, said: “We are thrilled to participate in this year’s PATS – especially as it marks our first joint appearance in the UK following the exciting merger of sera and Interpet.
“This union brings together sera’s long-standing expertise in high-quality food, treatments, and filter media with Interpet’s strengths in pond and aquarium technology and conditioners.”
As well as being a clearly defined area within PATS, the Aquatics Zone will again have its own dedicated New Product Showcase and Awards, which will be judged by industry experts and retailers under Indoor, Outdoor and Reptile categories.
PATS will run over three days on September 28-30, in Hall 1 of the NEC Birmingham.
