The world’s largest gathering of the aluminium industry, the ALUMINIUM 2010 trade fair, will be attracting some 18,000 trade visitors to Essen, Germany, this week. From 14-16 September 2010, aluminium producers, processors, suppliers of technology and plant for the production, processing and finishing of aluminium together with representatives of the user industries will be meeting to present the latest trends, innovative products, equipment and services.

The motto under which approximately 900 companies from about 45 different nations will be exhibiting is ‘Between Innovation and Environment’. More than half of the exhibitors are from abroad. Particularly noteworthy this year is the increase in the number of exhibitors from the Middle East. The organiser Reed Exhibitions and its partners Gesamtverband der Aluminiumindustrie (GDA) and the European Aluminium Association (EAA) are expecting visitors from over 100 countries. The whole of the material’s value chain will be on view at ALUMINIUM 2010, from the raw material via semi-finished products through to finished products for all areas of application of aluminium. Plant manufacturers and equipment suppliers are the largest exhibitor group this year, followed by companies engaged in the manufacture of semi-finished products, casting and surface finishing.

Four years ago already COMPOSITES EUROPE, the international trade fair for composite materials, celebrated its premiere parallel to ALUMINIUM. This year, the two fairs will complement each other even better: together, ALUMINIUM and COMPOSITES EUROPE with far more than 1,100 exhibitors form the largest platform for lightweight construction materials in Europe.

At COMPOSITES EUROPE around 300 exhibitors from 25 countries show the entire value chain of the composites industry – from primary products to semi-finished, finished and intermediate products to technologies and services. With a large number of special forums such as workshops, live demonstrations and the accompanying AVK Conference, COMPOSITES EUROPE has succeeded after only four events to become Germany’s largest B2B platform for composite materials.

ALUMINIUM 2010 offers a wide range of themes. As many as three joint stands dealing with new trade fair themes will celebrate their premiere: solar technology, piecework coating and magnesium. They complement the already established theme pavilions on the subjects of surface treatment (“World of Surface”), casting, welding and joining as well as primary production.

The Solar Pavilion specifically targets suppliers of aluminium for solar technology. The material has been accepted for a long time as a basis for substructures, poles, mounting systems or mouldings for solar panels in this sector which is of increasing interest to the industry as a sales market. Exhibitors to present their solar components include Sapa, RBB Aluminium, Kastens & Knauer and Thoni Alutec.
