Driven by positive market outlook, over 120 exhibitors booked at Fastener Fair Turkey 2020, the 5th International Exhibition for Fastener and Fixing Technology
With global demand for industrial fasteners set to grow by 4% annually until 2025, over 120 exhibitors have already booked their space at Fastener Fair Turkey, to capitalise on the positive outlook.
The international fair will take place from February 27 to 29 2020 in hall 12 at the Tüyap Exhibition Centre in Istanbul, providing a great networking opportunity for buyers and sellers in the industry.
“More than 120 exhibitors have now booked their stand for the 2020 fair from 8 countries, namely Turkey, France, Germany, Italy, Iran, China, Taiwan and USA, and space is still available,” said Olivia Griscelli, Exhibition Director of Fastener Fair Turkey, on behalf of the organisers Mack Brooks Exhibitions Ltd.
Exhibitors include Turkish firm Norm Civata and Tekelioglu, both leading manufacturers of nuts and bolts, and Cetin Civata, which markets screws, bolts, studs and other fasteners. They also include Kardemir, a Turkish steel producer.
Many foreign companies are exhibiting in 2020 too, notably Berardi from Italy, a supplier of both custom and standard screws and bolts, as well as Reinhardt GmbH from Germany, a market leader of dip spin coating equipment. Another exhibitor is Nof Metal coatings, the inventor of zinc flake anti-corrosion coatings, and part of the Japanese chemical group NOF Corporation. Magni from the USA is also showcasing its anti-corrosion coatings.
“With such a wide range of exhibitors, this unique fair attracts trade visitors from the automotive, agricultural, hardware, construction and civil engineering sectors, all being major users of fasteners. As many as 2,900 visitors from 48 countries were seen at the 2018 edition, and we expect numbers to rise in 2020. They included global players like car manufacturers Ford and Toyota as well as the Turkish Airlines and State Railways,” she stressed.
The 5th edition of the fair comes at an opportune time, with buyers looking to increase their purchases to meet rising demand.
Turkish industrial fastener sales are set to climb by as much as 26.4% from 2020 to 2025, to reach $1.34 billion, a study on industrial fasteners by the Freedonia Group shows. This is driven by growth in manufacturing activity, with key automotive manufacturers like Fiat, Daimler and Ford basing their R&D, design and engineering activities in Turkey. The country is also the sixth largest machinery manufacturer in Europe.
Fastener Fair Turkey is part of a series of targeted trade events for the fastener and fixings industry, including Fastener Fair France, Fastener Fair India, Fastener Fair Italy, Fastener Fair Mexico, and Fastener Fair USA. Fastener Fair Stuttgart, Germany, is the global flagship exhibition of the Fastener Fair brand.
