From 4th – 8th April 2016 the world’s leading trade fairs wire® – the international wire and cable fair – and Tube® – the international tube fair – will simultaneously present technology highlights from their respective industries at the Düsseldorf Exhibition Centre, Germany, for the 15th time.
The situation of the European steel industry is serious: Excess capacities on the global market, cheap imports from China, and massive pressure on prices, are giving producers in the industry a tough time. Nevertheless, most companies look to wire® and Tube® with optimism. At the shows the key players of these industries meet every two years to present their innovations, meet customers and close business deals.
Covering a net exhibition space of currently over 59,000m², wire will feature machinery for the production and finishing of wire, tools and auxiliary materials in process engineering, as well as special wires and cables. The trade fair will also cover innovations in measurement and control engineering, test engineering and special areas.
The international wire and cable fair will occupy Halls 9 to 13, 16 and 17 in wire, cable and glass fibre machinery, as well as wire and cable products and the wire and cable trade, while innovations in metal forming will be shown in Hall 15. Hall 16 will open its gates to mesh welding machines and spring making technology. So far over 1,280 companies from 51 countries have registered.
