wire 2016 – new products,
machines and technologies
New technologies, modernisation, advancement, meeting old friends
and making new ones. Düsseldorf is, again, about to become THE
centre for all things wire and cable.
The German city plays host to wire 2016 from 4th to 8th April when
organisers are expecting more than 70,000 visitors to attend the
exhibition at the Fairgrounds.
It is hardly surprising that much of this issue of Wire & Cable ASIA,
and the March issue of sister publication EuroWire, is devoted to the
five-day exhibition.
Companies will be launching new products, new machines will be at
the forefront, new technologies displayed for the first time.
You can read about some of the advancements made in our coverage,
which starts on page 52. This is the ideal place to start to plan your
way around the halls, take in some of the companies exhibiting and
embrace the new technology on offer.
That technology and the latest news are also available for readers in
the early sections of the magazine.
Free copies of our magazines are available from our stand at the
North Entrance, and on stand 11D26. Feel free to stop by and collect
them or simply to get a warm welcome from all
the INTRAS staff.
