GIFA Düsseldorf is a leading international trade show that takes place every 4 years for the foundry and casting industry around the world. It is known for presenting cutting-edge technologies, techniques, and solutions in the casting business. The first GIFA was held in 1956 and since then it has set a global standard for innovation in the metal casting industry.
The event will be held at Messe Düsseldorf from 21 to 25 June 2027, following the tremendous success of the previous fair in 2023. From automation systems to surface treatments, casting machines, foundry equipment, ferrous metals, and furnaces, you can find everything for your business under one roof. The first GIFA exhibition was held in 1956 and each year it gets bigger and better, making it one of the biggest foundry trade platforms in the world. The global event also features expert speaker sessions, seminars, conferences, and symposiums.
Metal casting is one of the biggest industries in the world with a huge impact on the world economy. While most countries export foundry commodities many import them as well. The size of this industry is approximately $200 billion worldwide and it is expected to grow by 8.3% by the end of 2027. The global trade exhibition meets the needs of several significant sectors including construction, automotive, and defense.
The casting industry is also closely related to the iron, steel, and copper industry. To meet the demands of various sectors, 4 events take place together: GIFA, METEC, THERMPROCESS, and NEWCAST. The four exhibitions are collectively known as “The Bright World of Metals” and cover different stages of metal casting. It is all about the production and processing of different metals, iron, steel, aluminum, copper, zinc, and other metals.
GIFA is one of the leading trade shows in the foundry industry and offers innovative solutions to industry professionals. THERMPROCESS is organized to present innovative and environmentally compatible concepts in thermo-processing plants. METEC is a global trade exhibition for the latest innovations and practices in metallurgical technology. Lastly, NEWCAST is an international exhibition organized for precision casting products. In conclusion, it is a comprehensive foundry exhibition that offers solutions for every step of the metal casting process.
The most important goal of this international trade show is to bring companies and traders together so that they can find the best technology, products, and services under one roof. GIFA Düsseldorf 2027 is one of the biggest events that you can experience if you belong to the Foundry Industry as a manufacturer or buyer. Therefore, we advise you to not miss it.
