MECSPE Trade fair
MECSPE, the international exhibition
for specialised mechanics organised
by Senaf, will take place 25-27 March
2010, at Italy’s Fiere di Parma (Parma
Fairground).
The Marketing Centre in Milan has also
conducted research on a sample of 348
Italian companies in the mechanics and
sub-supply division. The survey, while
indicating doubts about turnover and
orders, also revealed the first signs of
optimism: the occupational expectations
of the division show that more than the
half of the Italian ‘firm captains’ (63%)
expect to maintain a stable workforce in
the first semester of 2009.
62% of the sample indicated that an
increase in insolvencies or a delay
in payments were among their main
concerns. 47% of respondents named
as a critical factor the reduction in
investments for machines, followed by
the difficulty of credit access (35%).
According to the survey, export could be
a launch pad to cope with the difficulties
of the world economy. According to the
results, in 2008 24% of the companies in
Italian mechanics and sub-supply sold
abroad, and 5% of these realised more
than 50% of turnover outside national
borders. In particular, the respondents
stated that they mainly exported in
central Europe (67%), northern Europe
(35%) and the Mediterranean/North
Africa areas (25%).
MECSPEwill feature six trades: MECSPE
(specialised mechanics), Eurostampi
and Plastix Expo (mould and moulding),
Subfornitura (manufacturing on behalf
of a third party), Motek Italy (automation,
robotics and power transmission), and
Control Italy (metrology and quality).
The event will host more than one
thousand exhibiting companies,
representing fifteen countries, in
42,000m2 of exhibiting area, with 19
Working Isles, five Excellence Squares,
40 meetings and miniconferences, 26
Theme Squares and Avenues, and 36
associations and boards that actively
support the exhibition.
