WATREX Expo Cairo

The WATREX Expo – short for Water Treatment Expo – is the leading international trade fair for water and wastewater technology in the MENA region. Since its inception in 2015, it has been held annually at the state-of-the-art Egypt International Exhibition Center (EIEC) in Cairo. Organized by Al Awael International Trade Fairs (ATF), an experienced exhibition organizer based in Egypt, the WATREX Expo has established itself as a vital platform for decision-makers, engineers, scientists, and companies committed to sustainable water management – one of the region’s most pressing challenges.

What sets the WATREX Expo apart is its dual role as a specialized industry event and a practical contributor to Egypt’s national water strategy. In a country grappling with water scarcity, population growth, and environmental pressures, the expo directly addresses the urgent need for innovative water management solutions. It thus plays a hands-on, forward-looking role in tackling these critical issues.

The exhibition brings together national and international exhibitors from a wide range of sectors, including environmental technology, mechanical and plant engineering, automation, and measurement and control systems. On display are advanced technologies for water purification, wastewater treatment, desalination, irrigation, and drinking water supply. The product portfolio also includes pumps, valves, control systems, pipelines, and fire protection equipment. Sustainable processes for resource conservation and recycling are gaining increased attention as well.

Trade visitors – including engineers, investors, representatives of public utilities and municipalities, and political decision-makers – benefit from an in-depth overview of current market trends, technological innovations, and viable solutions aimed at securing water supplies in both urban and rural areas. As the host city, Cairo reaps multiple benefits: economically through the strengthening of its trade fair and conference sector, and structurally through the transfer of knowledge in a field crucial to Egypt’s future development.

A particular highlight of the WATREX Expo is the accompanying program of expert conferences and innovation forums, which foster the exchange of knowledge and experience.

Conveniently located near Cairo International Airport, the EIEC offers ideal conditions for a successful event with its spacious halls, modern facilities, and easy accessibility by car, shuttle, or taxi. More than just an exhibition, the WATREX Expo is a forward-looking industry event of strategic relevance for Egypt, the MENA region, and beyond.

The WATREX Expo will take place on 3 days from Tuesday, 23. June to Thursday, 25. June 2026 in Cairo.
