INDUSTRY NEWS I COMMENT


nternational Metal Tube March 2018, yet again I am bringing you the latest news just before the opening of yet another Tube Dusseldorf on the 16th April. This will be at least my fourteenth Tube Dusseldorf and how things have changed, however what is pleasing is that there are still some very familiar faces still around from those very early days and I look forward to seeing them yet again.


If you are attending Tube Dusseldorf then make sure you read through this issue and make sure you visit those advertising as they have much more to show you in person, if you wish to make an appointment with me to discuss how to take an active role within the pages of IMT magazine, one of the four E-newsletters this year or our website www. internationalmetaltube.com then please contact via Email: imtmagazine@virginmedia.com as soon as possible.


With Tube Dusseldorf opening its doors on the 16th April, IMT will do a roundup of what we have seen that was new and incorporate this into our end of April E-newsletter. If you have yet to sign up for the newsletter then please go to https:// confirmsubscription.com/h/j/96BDACC14092F764 as soon as possible.


Wish all of you who are either exhibiting or visiting Tube Dusseldorf a great show.
