This year, on 28 and 29 November 2018, Paris Expo (Porte de Versailles) will be the venue for the first French edition of FASTENER FAIR, a one-of-a-kind international event dedicated to fastener and fixing technologies. Currently, more than 150 exhibitors from 15 countries worldwide have already reserved their stands. Exhibitors include a number of major French groups and SMEs, as well as a large contingent of stakeholders from Italy, Germany, Spain and Turkey.
FASTENER FAIR is a series of fairs hosted in 6 countries (Germany, Italy, Turkey, the United States, Mexico, and India). Each one of the events contributes to developing the international reputation of the others.
For this year’s event, stakeholders in the screws, bolts and fastening-systems market will be gathering for the first time in Paris, a city that is conducive to international trade. Over the course of two days, they will be afforded a unique opportunity to meet, discover globally significant innovations, and above all, forge new business relationships.
A unique event in France, relevant to a wide range of industrial sectors
FASTENER FAIR FRANCE will bring together manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and end users of fastening and fixing systems. The exhibition is aimed primarily at industrial stakeholders that require assembly and installation systems, fastener-manufacturing technologies, and logistics and storage equipment.
FASTENER FAIR covers needs across an extraordinarily wide range of sectors, be it construction, car manufacturing, aerospace, marine, electric and electronic equipment, civil engineering, energy, communications technologies, metal products, furniture manufacturing, plumbing and sanitary equipment, or installation services, to name a few.
