At the heart of SALTEX 2025 is the Grounds Management Association (GMA) - the not-for-profit organisation driving the future of the sector. As the force behind Europe’s cutting-edge grounds management show, the GMA powers SALTEX with a clear purpose: to energise the industry through innovation, education and community.

For nearly a century, the GMA has championed everyone from elite stadium grounds teams to grassroots volunteers. SALTEX is where that mission comes to life - a trusted space to explore smart tech, power up your skills through expert-led Learning LIVE content, and connect with peers across every sector of the industry.

Importantly, every pound generated by SALTEX goes back into the industry - reinvested into GMA Membership, GMA-led training, career pathways, and year-round support for those shaping the future of the sector.

If you’re a GMA member, attending SALTEX 2025 comes with added advantages designed to enhance your show experience and support your ongoing professional development.
