Big Italian Exhibitor Presence Expected at SteelFab
DUBAI - SteelFab, Middle East’s largest trade show for the metal-working, metal-manufacturing and steel fabrication industry, will be held at Expo Centre Sharjah from January 19 to 22.
The show will offer industry representatives and traders an opportunity to share Italian expertise in machine tool, robot and automation technology as it will have a total of 40 Italian firms already registered.
The fifth edition of SteelFab will feature more than 250 exhibitors and nearly 600 brands, with a total exhibition area of 18,000 square metres.
Many of the Italian exhibitors will be taking part in the show under the umbrella of UCIMU-Sistemi Per Produrre — the association of Italian manufacturers of machine tools, robots, automation systems and ancillary products.
“The Italian firms offer the regional steel working industry a good opportunity to source top-of-the range machinery and tools,” said Saif Mohammed Al Midfa, Director-General of Expo Centre Sharjah.
“With most of the construction and developmental projects being on schedule here, the demand from the steel fabrication industry for machinery, machine tools, welding equipment, supplies and consumables used in pre-treatment and post-treatment of steel and ancillary equipment will be high,” said Midfa.
“In this scenario, the Italian firms have enough potential to attract a large number of visitors to the show. Through their participation the Italian firms also get an opportunity to promote and increase the presence of their branches and agencies in our region,” added Midfa.
“This is an opportunity for the regional steel fabrication industry to share expertise with Italian firms famed for their technological know-how,” said Fasahat Ali Khan, Advisor to the Chairman and Board of Directors of Expo Centre, Sharjah.
“Italian firms will have a prominent presence this time. The considerable increase in the number of Italian exhibitors reinforces the popularity of the show and the good response generated from the previous shows,” added Fasahat Ali Khan.
