Global Players at wire and Tube 2024

Düsseldorf, Germany – With more than 2,000 exhibitors from 65 countries, wire and Tube 2024 once again impressively confirm their position as leading international trade fairs for the wire, cable, tubes, pipes sectors and their supplier industries. The trade fair duo will be held from April 15–19, 2024, at the fairgrounds in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Over 100,000 square meters of exhibit space at the Düsseldorf fairgrounds have been booked and trade visitors from around the globe are expected. With around two thirds of the exhibitors, wire and Tube are among the trade fairs with the highest internationality in Messe Düsseldorf’s portfolio. The companies come mainly from the strong European production countries as well as from the U.S., Central and South America, Asia and the African continent.

“The Düsseldorf trade fair venue is the absolute front-place for the wire and Tube sectors when it comes to presenting innovations from the relevant industries to a broad, international audience,” said Daniel Ryfisch, director, wire/Tube & Flow Technologies at Messe Düsseldorf.

In addition to the classic themes such as machinery and equipment for wire, cable and tube production, processing and end products, wire and Tube place a strong focus on topics such as stainless steel, hydrogen, plastic tubes, cutting and slitting technologies and e-mobility. In addition, the topics of fastening and joining technologies, spring manufacturing technology and glass fiber technologies continue to be important topics. Key industries here are the chemical, oil and gas, automotive and construction as well as the entire telecommunications sector.

wire 2024 will occupy exhibition halls 9 to 17: wire, cable, wire products and technologies are planned in halls 9 to 12 and hall 15. Meet China`s Expertise can be found in Hall 14. Hall 16 will become a special hall for fastening and fixing technologies and for spring making technology, including their end products such as screws, grooves, eyelets and technical springs. This will create an exclusive, separate technology area. The large area for heavy, much space occupying mesh welding machines will be located in central Hall 17.

Tube 2024 will take place in exhibition halls 1 to 7a: tube accessories, tube manufacturing and the tube trade will be located in halls 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7a. Plastics tubes are becoming increasingly important in the manufacturing and processing industries and therefore a new feature will be the special area for plastic tubes in Hall 1.

Forming and bending technology will be housed in Halls 5 and 6, and pipe processing technology in Halls 6 and 7a. Machinery and equipment will follow in Hall 7a. Hall 7 will again be reserved for Meet Chin’s expertise with Chinese pipe producers and pipe processors.

Numerous specialist forums, congresses and tours such as the international meeting of experts from the sectors, a hydrogen and e-mobility congress, the ecoMetal-trails and the daily after-business-chill will complement the range of events in the exhibition halls and the outside area.
