EXHIBITIONS Six months to go until wire 2012


In just under six months that time will have come around again. Wire 2012 and Tube 2012, the trade fairs for the wire, cable and pipe and tube industries, will be presenting technology highlights from their respective sectors in the exhibition halls on the Rhine from 26th


– 30th C


urrent registration figures for both trade fairs make the Düsseldorf trade fair organisers more than confident. At this early stage (correct as of mid-October 2011) 1,005 enterprises from 45 countries have already


registered for wire. 2012 will again see the traditionally strong participation of exhibitors from Italy, Belgium, France, Austria, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and Germany. The majority of overseas companies come from the USA, China, India and Taiwan. All of these 1,005 companies together currently occupy approximately 55,000 square metres of exhibition space. Wire 2012 will present wire production and finishing machinery, tools and process engineering auxiliary materials, as well as materials and special wires. Also on display will be innovations from the areas of cable, measuring and control technology and testing technology. Special segments such as logistics, conveyor systems and packaging round off the ranges. Wire, cable and fibre glass machines, as well as wire and


cable producers, and wire and cable traders occupy Halls 9 to 12, 16 and 17. Hall 15 houses fastener technology while Hall 16 follows on with spring making.


March 2012. Tube 2012 boasts similarly positive interim results. With 805


exhibitors from 44 countries, here most European enterprises come from Italy, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Switzerland, Spain, Turkey, Germany and the United Kingdom. At present, the exhibitors of Tube occupy 45,500 square metres of net exhibition space. Tube occupies Halls 1 to 7a. Pipe and tube accessories can be

Pipe and tube finishing machinery is exhibited in Halls 6 and 7a, not forgetting the segment of plant and machinery in parts of Hall 7a. Tube presents the complete spectrum ranging from pipe and


tube production to processing.
