Additional hall for EuroBLECH 2020

The 26th edition of the International Sheet Metal Working Technology Exhibition, EuroBLECH 2020, will take place from 27 – 30 October 2020 at the Hanover Exhibition Grounds in Germany. The show organiser, Mack Brooks Exhibitions, has now announced the expansion of exhibition space for EuroBLECH 2020 with the addition of a ninth hall for the first time in its history. This reflects a further increase in exhibition space compared to the previous event in 2018, which covered a total of 89,800 square metres.

“Around nine months ahead of the show the demand for stand space continues to be very strong”, explains Evelyn Warwick, Exhibition Director of EuroBLECH, on behalf of the organiser Mack Brooks Exhibitions. “With the directly neighbouring hall 26, we are now able to offer additional stand space for the exhibition to meet the demand of exhibitors to display their latest machines in the various technology sectors. The additional hall will host exhibitors of joining technology, as well as surface and tool technology, which had previously been located in hall 13. The ninth hall enables us to assign stand space to additional exhibiting companies within the entire sheet metal working technology chain represented at EuroBLECH. The growth to a ninth exhibition hall reflects the increasing demand for stand space and offers even more capacity for businesses to present their innovations to an international audience.”    

Currently, more than 95,000 square metres of net exhibition space have been booked or reserved at this leading global sheet metal working technology exhibition, which is held every two years. This represents an increase of almost 6% in stand space compared to the previous show in 2018. The biggest exhibitor countries include Germany; Italy; Turkey; China; Switzerland; the Netherlands; Spain; Belgium; the UK and the USA.

At EuroBLECH 2020, key topics represent the latest industry trends include smart sheet metal working as well as automation and digitalisation of the manufacturing chain, with the objective of increasing output and efficiency. A total of 56,307 international trade visitors attended the previous show.
