The new Aquatics Zone at PATS 2024 – a dedicated hall for the key aquatics, reptile and watergardening exhibitors – will showcase the latest launches from leading manufacturers and suppliers.

With PATS taking place over three days from Sunday, 29th September to Tuesday, 1st October 2024, at the Telford International Centre, the Aquatics Zone is sure to be a popular destination for specialist retailers and buyers.

Visitors will find the Zone located in Hall 1A, a prime position immediately next to the show entrance, where almost 40 of the UK’s leading aquatics, reptile and watergardening companies will be exhibiting.

Excitement is already building as the companies plan their activity at the show.

Pettex sales coordinator Liam O’Brien said: “There is a real excitement within the industry about the upcoming Pet and Aquatics Trade Show. The event is a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase our existing range, network with existing and potential customers, and celebrate the vibrant trade in which we operate. We will be introducing our new ‘Japanese-style’ aquatic soil Akua to the market, which will be showcased on the Aquatics Zone New Product Showcase.”

Mark Winter, MD of Aqua Pacific (Aqua One), is also excited by the opportunity to launch a new brand of marine and freshwater products onto the UK market at PATS. “We have signed exclusive agreements to distribute Adec Aquarium Supplies Pte Ltd’s ‘Dymax’ brand of marine and freshwater products. We were desperate to get it for the UK as we felt it complements our own Aqua One brand, and PATS gives us the perfect platform to showcase the range alongside our other products.”

Many of the exhibitors are taking advantage of the fact that the Aquatics Zone will have its own New Product Showcase in Hall 1A. All entries into the Showcase will be judged by industry experts to determine the winners of the New Product Awards under three categories: Indoor, Outdoor and Reptile. Entries to the showcase can be viewed on the PATS website by clicking here.
