Messe Düsseldorf postpones wire and Tube in consultation with the partners and associations involved to 20 to 24 June 2022. The currently very dynamic infection patterns and rapidly spread- ing Omicron variant have resulted in adjustments in the Düsseldorf trade fair calendar that require re-scheduling the wire and Tube originally planned for 9 to 13 May.
The new period offers more planning security and added value due to METAV held concurrently in part. This the leading trade fair for metal-working technologies was already postponed by VDW (German Machine Tool Builders’ Association) to 21 to 24 June.
Wolfram N. Diener, CEO of Messe Düssel- dorf, emphasizes the backing for the new
trade fair dates: “The tenor among our exhibitors is: We want and need wire and Tube – but at a point in time that promises the biggest prospects of success. Together with the partners and associations involved we regard early summer as the ideal period for this. We not only expect infection pat- terns to calm down but also more people to be able to enter the country and take part. This means exhibiting companies as well as visitors can do their business in an environment that is clearly less affected by Covid-19.”
As the No.1 international trade fairs for their industries, wire and Tube have global appeal and require particularly long lead times. Traditionally, two thirds of all exhib- iting companies travel to Düsseldorf from abroad every two years.
