Messe München Exhibitor List Scraper (bauma, IFAT, BAU & more)

Export the complete exhibitor list of any Messe München trade fair as structured data — including business e-mail addresses and phone numbers, which most exhibitor directories keep out of reach.

Point the actor at a fair's exhibitor directory URL and you get every exhibiting company with its booth, full postal address, contact details, website, social media profiles and the official product categories it exhibits under.

Supported fairs

bauma — world's largest construction machinery fair	https://exhibitors.bauma.de/	~3,800

Use cases

• Lead generation — exhibitors at a trade fair are companies with a budget and a buying season; get them with e-mail and phone in one run
• Market & competitor research — who exhibits in which product category, which countries dominate a hall, how a fair changes between editions
• Event & logistics planning — hall/stand assignments as a clean table
• CRM enrichment — match your accounts against a fair's exhibitor list
• AI agents — clean input/output schema, callable via MCP

Input example

{
    "start_url": "https://exhibitors.bauma.de/",
    "scrape_details": true,
    "language": "en",
    "output_type": "single_row",
    "result_limit": 500
}

Set scrape_details: false for a fast overview run (company, country, hall/stand, description). Choose output_type: "multi_row" to get one row per exhibitor × product group — handy for pivot tables in Excel or Google Sheets.

Output example

    "profileUrl": "https://exhibitors.bauma.de/firma/1380867"
}

Data quality

Two things this actor handles that a naive scraper gets wrong:

1. No duplicates, no gaps. The directory's paging is unstable — requesting the same page twice returns different records. This actor loads the list in one consistent request instead, so every exhibitor appears exactly once.
2. Company vs. brand entries. Some companies are listed a second time as a brand. Those duplicates are merged by default (include_brand_entries to keep them).

Notes

• Only public company information is collected — no personal contact persons, no login-protected data.
• Requests are throttled to keep load on the fair's website low.
• Not affiliated with or endorsed by Messe München GmbH.

What does a run cost?

Exhibitors	Cost
100	$0.51
1,000	$5.01
bauma, complete (~3,800)	~$19.01

$0.01 per run start plus $0.005 per exhibitor. scrape_details: false returns company, country and hall/stand at the same price but many times faster.

FAQ

Which fairs are supported? bauma, IFAT, BAU, automatica and ceramitec are verified. Any Messe München fair on the same exhibitor-directory platform works — paste its URL and it runs. If one is not recognised, open an issue and it gets added.

Do I really get e-mail addresses? Yes, where the exhibitor published one in its directory profile — these are company contact addresses, not personal ones. Not every exhibitor fills the field; missing values stay empty instead of being guessed.

Why are your exhibitor counts lower than the fair's own number? Because the directory lists some companies twice — once as a company, once as a brand. Those duplicates are merged. Set include_brand_entries: true to keep them.

Can I get exhibitors of a past edition? No. The directory serves the current edition only; older editions are not available through it, and this actor does not pretend otherwise.

How do I get one row per product category? Set output_type: "multi_row". Handy for pivot tables and category analysis.

Is scraping this data allowed? The exhibitor directory is public company information published by the exhibitors themselves to be found. No login-protected content is accessed and requests are throttled to keep load low.
