The entire value chain of the metals industry under one roof
Four world-leading trade fairs – one platform: The Bright World of Metals
GIFA, METEC, THERMPROCESS and NEWCAST form the metal industry’s leading international quartet of trade fairs. No other trade fair platform covers the industrial process chain – from foundry technology via metallurgy and thermal processing technology to castings – so comprehensively and with such a strong technological foundation.
As a four-in-one industry gathering, this quartet of trade fairs brings together international trade visitors and top decision-makers from the metallurgy, thermal engineering and foundry sectors at the same time and in the same place. This fosters valuable contacts, concrete business opportunities and new impetus for the future of the global metal industry.
With a diverse supporting programme comprising conferences, technology forums, seminars and special exhibitions, the quartet of trade fairs also offers a platform for knowledge transfer, innovation and international industry dialogue.
Four world-leading trade fairs. One platform.
