EUROMOLD 2014 INCREASES ITS INTERNATIONAL FOCUS

The 21st EuroMold, which is to take place at the end of November 2014 at the exhibition centre in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, will again present itself as a globally positioned trade fair. From November 25–28 2014, approximately 1000 exhibitors from some 32 countries will meet around 50,000 international visitors from all areas of industry. This makes EuroMold by far the most international trade fair within its field. Furthermore, there are no comparable trade fairs with so many world premieres and examples of the most recent trends from across the entire sector.

At this year’s trade fair, the organisers are expecting the proportion of foreign visitors to be around 50%. As things currently stand, there will be approximately 40 first-time exhibitors from Germany and around 60 first-time exhibitors from abroad represented at the trade fair. The majority of the foreign first-time exhibitors will be made up primarily of Portuguese mold- and toolmakers, as well as companies from the Netherlands, Great Britain, France and China. Mold- and toolmaking is thus the largest industrial sector represented at the trade fair, followed by rapid prototyping & tooling and the accessories and peripheral devices manufacturing industry. Alongside these, representatives from all other areas of the overall process chain are expected to be present, for example from the engineering, design, machine tooling and software sectors.

Eberhard Döring, manager of the EuroMold trade fair, commented: “In contrast, other trade fairs that have a national focus bring together mainly German exhibitors and visitors, by no means displaying stateof-the-art technology and failing to offer these numerous opportunities to establish business contacts around the world that can be found at EuroMold. Within a global market, it is apparent that German companies enter new markets with international partners. In this regard, EuroMold serves as the world’s only platform that has been established within its field for several years and can offer an incomparably broad variety of international companies from the entire industrial process chain. Once again in 2014, companies will benefit from our international orientation within the global market.” n Visit: www.euromold.com
