wire 2008 on course for continued growth!

wire 2008 Düsseldorf is the world’s largest and most important trade fair for the wire

and cable industry.

Expectations for wire 2008 and Tube 2008 are already high – after more than

650 companies from 36 countries registered for the Düsseldorf shows between

March and 4

April.

Already, 43,000m² of net exhibition space has been rented – 11,000m² more than the

same period two years ago.

Companies already registered are coming from Belgium, France, Italy, Spain,

Switzerland, Turkey, China and India, among many others.

Tube has also exceeded its 2005 interim

registration figures – even during May.

While in May 2005, 22,500m² had been

rented for Tube, a further 5,000m² of net

exhibition space has already been sold,

with 360 exhibitors from 29 countries

having bindingly registered for the

International Tube Trade Fair in Düsseldorf.

The week will see the world’s most

important trade fairs for the wire, cable and

tube and pipe industries, wire and Tube,

held concurrently in Düsseldorf, along with

one of the leading international fairs for

metal working, Metav.

This arrangement will benefit the exhibitors

and visitors to all three events because a

wealth of synergies are anticipated for all

these target groups.

Exhibitors at Metav will occupy exhibition Halls 1 to 5 and 15 to 17 while Tube exhibitors

will present their products in Halls 6 to 8b and wire firms can be found in Hall 9 to 14.

Messe Düsseldorf and the German Machine Tool Builders’ Association (Verein Deutscher

Werkzeugmaschinenfabriken – VDW) as the organisers of Metav expect more than

100,000 visitors to attend the three trade fairs at the Exhibition Centre in Düsseldorf

over the five days of the exhibition.
