Looking towards Düsseldorf
Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, organiser of
the forthcoming wire 2014 exhibition,
the leading trade fair for the industry,
has confirmed more than 1,300
companies covering some 58,000m
2
of rented space are booked in halls
9 to 12 and 15 to 17. That is already
more than the total space booked in
2012, and the exhibition halls for wire
2014 are already full.
wire 2012 saw over 38,000
visitors converging on Düsseldorf,
internationally the number one
meeting place for decision makers
to gather information on the latest
machines, plants and products, as
well as new technological innovations
in the wire, cable and tube industries.
Here, exhibitors meet with their
international clients and establish new
contacts for future business.
Mr Friedrich-Georg Kehrer, director
wire 2014, confirmed one thing
that is different in 2014 is an
even stronger classification of the
individual exhibition areas. For
example, there is the very first PTF
– Plastic Tube Forum – in hall 7.1
where plastic tube manufacturers,
dealers and consumers have
the opportunity to present their
combined competency in one
special area.
There is also a shift of emphasis
at wire in that, for the first time,
all exhibitors in the area of mesh
welding machines are consolidated
together in hall 16. Around 20
companies will be presenting
their latest products on roughly
2,000m
2
. Companies there will show
concentrated technological power in
one exhibition hall.
The IWMA is proud to be a main
international industry partner of wire
and will have its usual stand number
11D26 in hall 11, ready to provide
members an extensive range of
services, for those exhibiting and
visiting the event.
Members are welcome to visit the
stand for some refreshments and a
discussion with board members and
staff about how membership can
assist their business in the global
market.
The IWMA stand will also offer
members a comprehensive office
service, with Internet, telephone,
printing and photocopying facilities
available, as well as a meeting
room for those requiring a
quieter environment for business
discussions.
