Indian tube and
metallurgy trade fairs
WIRE & Cable India will be held at the Bombay Exhibition
Centre in Mumbai, India, from 5 to 7 October. Co-located
with Metallurgy India/Tube India International as well as
India Essen Welding & Cutting (organised as a joint event
by Messe Düsseldorf India and Messe Essen GmbH),
all four trade fairs present technology highlights from the
metallurgy, wire and cable industries and the tube industry
as well as from the industrial areas of cutting and welding
for the sixth time.
Tube India International and Metallurgy India are
organised and held by Messe Düsseldorf GmbH and its
Indian subsidiary Messe Düsseldorf India as well as the
Confederation of Indian Industry. The organisers expect a
total of some 400 exhibitors from 25 countries. Many Indian
and international companies have already registered for
participation. There will again be group participations from
Italy, Austria, France and China.
On display at Wire & Cable India will be machines and
plants for wire production and processing, forming technology,
spring-making technology, cable and stranded wire machines,
tools and auxiliaries for process engineering, measuring and
control technology, all types of wires, rolled wire, bare wire,
bars, sheet metal and special wires and cables.
Tube India International presents the complete range
from tube production to tube processing as well as the tube
trading segment. The spectrum includes raw materials,
tubes and accessories, tube manufacturing machinery and
used machinery as well as tools for process engineering and
auxiliaries, measuring and control technology.
Metallurgy India presents the entire portfolio of the
metallurgical industry with electrical and automation
technology systems. Together the three trade fairs cover the
complete spectrum of metal working and processing.
Conceptual and technical support for the Indian trade
fairs comes care of the international associations IWCEA
(International Wire and Cable Exhibitors Association), IWMA
(International Wire & Machinery Association), ACIMAF
(Italian Wire Machinery Manufacturers Association), WCISA
(Wire and Cable Industry Suppliers Association) USA and
ITA (International Tube Association).
The Indian associations SWMAI (Steel WireManufacturers
Association of India) and AIWMA (All India Weldedmesh
Manufacturer’s Association) are also at hand with their
country-specific insider know-how.
Germany is India’s biggest trading partner in the EU. The
trading volume between Germany and India has tripled over
the past ten years. The demand for plant and machinery is
moderate but the Indian automotive industry reports positive
sales figures.
In the construction sector strong investment in civil
engineering for streets, canals, bridges, railroad and energy
projects has had a positive impact on the business climate.
Nevertheless, the demand for tubes in India continues to be
high despite the global steel crisis.
