ABOUT THE FAIR
WasteTech is one of the leading trade fairs for waste management and environmental technologies in Eastern Europe. It serves as a key platform for professionals engaged in sustainable disposal solutions and innovative green technologies. The name "WasteTech" – derived from "waste" and "technology" – symbolizes the event's forward-looking, technology-driven approach, with a strong focus on advancements in waste processing, environmental monitoring, and the circular economy.
The event is held annually at the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Centre in Krasnogorsk, a modern suburb of Moscow. Organized by ExpoVisionRus, a seasoned host of international trade fairs, the event targets industries with a strong future orientation.
The fair highlights the latest developments in waste collection, sorting, storage, transportation, and disposal. In addition, it presents modern solutions for landfills, reclamation projects, and sanitation infrastructure. A particular emphasis is placed on environmentally friendly technologies, including bioenergy, low-emission production, environmental protection, and the remediation of contaminated land.
Exhibitors showcase a specialized range of products and services, including waste-to-energy systems, advanced sorting technologies, recycling solutions for electronic waste, tires, and plastics, as well as environmental monitoring tools and IoT-based control systems. The portfolio also includes specialized vehicles, processing equipment, and digital platforms for optimizing waste processes—up to and including applications based on blockchain technology. As such, the trade fair serves as a comprehensive resource for decision-makers across the sector.
The event attracts a diverse professional audience, including representatives from industrial enterprises, energy providers, public authorities, and research institutions. Exhibitors come from a wide range of fields—spanning mechanical engineering, waste management, digitalization, logistics, and science.
A key component of the event is the accompanying WasteTech Forum, which features expert presentations, discussions on current industry trends, and insights into cutting-edge innovations. The program is further enriched by live demonstrations of technologies, dedicated zones for startups, national forums with government participation, and international exhibition pavilions. A structured matchmaking program supports targeted business networking and promotes international cooperation.
Crocus Expo is one of Russia’s most modern exhibition centers, offering excellent infrastructure and convenient access by both public transportation and car. The city of Krasnogorsk, part of the Moscow metropolitan area, also provides a variety of leisure options—ideal for unwinding after a productive day at the fair.
With its in-depth content, international reach, and clear focus on technological innovation, WasteTech is far more than a conventional trade fair. It is a highly specialized meeting point for all those shaping the future of the waste and recycling industry and driving progress in sustainable circular economy solutions.
The WasteTech will take place on 2 days from Tuesday, 08. September to Wednesday, 09. September 2026 in Krasnogorsk.
