Sales markets urgently needed: Despite, or perhaps because of, the ongoing trade conflicts, European companies are seeking to tap into new markets by looking to offset weak domestic markets with international business.
In the second half of the year, the “wire Middle East Africa” exhibition in Cairo and “wire Southeast Asia” in Bangkok will offer further opportunities to do so. In addition, the German Association of Wire and Cable Machine Manufacturers (VDKM) will be exhibiting with its own pavilion under the motto “Cable & Wire West Coast“, at the “Manufacturing Technology Series West” in Anaheim. Almost 20 companies will be presenting themselves at the joint stand.
In this issue of WIRE, companies once again present their new products or invite readers to visit them at upcoming trade fairs. Your WIRE team wishes you an enjoyable read!
