Global economic upheaval, a worldwide steel crisis, new climate regulations spanning the globe, and a classic industry on its journey into the new Industry 4.0 digital age – that’s the business climate in which the world’s industry-leading trade fairs Wire and Tube took place for the 15th time in Düsseldorf from 4 to 8 April 2016!
More than 2,600 companies informed themselves about the latest machinery, equipment and products from the wire, cable and tube processing industries. A total net exhibition area of 110.900 square metres was occupied across 16 exhibition halls – a new record value posted in Düsseldorf’s long success story of wire and Tube.
“Major deals are made in Düsseldorf; wire and Tube serve as the global communication and business platform for industry heavyweights, SMEs and international associations alike”, says an excited Friedrich-Georg Kehrer, Global Portfolio Director for Metals and Flow Technologies.
A combined total of about 69,500 trade visitors from more than 130 countries attended the two events.
