MetalTech 2009, 6-8 October, Sao Paulo, Brazil

In October next year the Metaltech exhibition takes place at the Imigrantes Exposicões facility in São Paulo, the largest city in South America.  The fledgling show runs concurrently with Tubotech, the largest and most important pipe and tube exhibition in South America.  Once again the IWMA is the major international sponsor of Metaltech and will be exhibiting on a joint booth with sister organisation the International Tube Association (ITA), major international sponsor of Tubotech.

Sicetel- National Association for Wire Drawing and Rolling of Ferrous Metals- is the official local sponsor of Metaltech and is fully convinced that the event is the key trade fair for business and technology in the wire sector. The president of Sicetel, Rodrigo de Almeida Prado, states that “for the 2009 edition we shall have as exhibitors important Brazilian and foreign industries from both peripheral sectors as well as the main ones of machinery and equipment, raw materials, lubricants, software and service providers.”

Metaltech offers free entry to trade visitors and its opening hours are 14:00 to 21:00 hours on each of its three days.  Apart from its shared information booth with the ITA, a stand well equipped with support services for member exhibitors and visitors alike, the IWMA is offering its “Samba” exhibition packages to wire and cable organisations.  Most important also is the experienced advice that the IWMA can provide to attendees, essential for first time visitors to the exhibition in particular.
