The visitors, but also the entire Hansgrohe trade fair team, were thrilled to finally meet and exchange ideas in person again.

Parallel to the tours on the booth, there were numerous events for sanitary professionals and journalists. 640 Hansgrohe customer club members were invited over two days to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Hansgrohe iClub. During a breakfast and lunch, they learned more about the product range extensions in an exclusive setting. There was a lively atmosphere at two evening booth parties with live music. During the "Green Hour" press briefing, selected journalists learned about Hansgrohe’s sustainability strategy.

Two Special Trains Filled with Hansgrohe Team Spirit
Not only thousands of professionals from the sanitary industry paid a visit to the Hansgrohe booth, but also 1,200 Hansgrohe employees from the company’s sites in Offenburg and Schiltach. They took the opportunity to travel to the ISH in Frankfurt on two special trains organized by Hansgrohe on Friday, March 17, 2023. Since 1989, Hansgrohe has offered its employees the opportunity to visit their trade fair booth in Frankfurt on the last day of the trade fair with the legendary Hansgrohe ISH train. The atmosphere is always exceptional, as colleagues from a wide variety of departments and areas meet here. "The positive response from our customers and the enthusiasm of the entire Hansgrohe team after these five days at the trade fair is a great motivation for all of us" CEO Hans Jürgen Kalmbach summarizes.
