The Bright World of Metals
Technologies - Processes - Applications - Products

Foundry technology remains a cornerstone of industrial activity, and the last staging of GIFA in 2007 once again proved its high innovation potential and efficiency against a background of increasing demands in terms of quality, flexibility, cost management, environment and links with modern technologies. 

In light of current economic uncertainties, export business is now playing an ever more important role in the industry's development and survival.

As the global No.1 event, GIFA 2011 will provide a complete overview of advances in the foundry practice. Düsseldorf will again be the venue for the world's leading manufacturers of foundry machinery and plant construction, suppliers of foundry-related materials and auxiliaries, manufacturers of measurement and testing devices for quality assurance, plus engineering companies.

METEC (8th International Metallurgical Technology Trade Fair with Congress), THERMPROCESS (10th International Trade Fair and Symposium for Thermo Process Technology), and NEWCAST (3rd International Castings Trade Fair with Forum) will again be staged parallel to GIFA 2011.
