Dan Palmer, President of Art’s Way Scientific said “Our number one lead source at Scientific continues to be from trade events and conventions. The associations that we support through our membership in Public Health, BioSafety, Modular Construction, Animal Laboratory Research and Agriculture continue to show good attendance numbers, so we have elected to attend those that have produced the best results for us.
An added benefit from the conferences is the training and learning opportunities for our staff. And we are always looking for products to integrate into our buildings from the other vendors exhibiting at these events.”
Glen Parret, Director of Sales and Marketing of Art’s Way Manufacturing Co., Inc. commented “Trade Shows are a key component to the success of our company and are a powerful platform for product awareness, meeting new customers, reaching out to existing customers and promoting our brand.

We are excited to exhibit our newest innovative products and above all else look forward to the opportunity to connect with customers old and new.”
