After four years, the sheet metal working community is eagerly awaiting its leading meeting place for the industry. EuroBLECH 2022, the 26th International Sheet Metal Working Technology Exhibition, takes place from 25 – 28 October 2022 at the Hanover Exhibition Grounds in Germany.
Four months ahead of the show, around 1,300 exhibitors from 39 countries already secured their stand space at the trade exhibition for the sheet metal working industry. Currently, major exhibitor countries are Germany, Italy, Turkey, China, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Poland, Austria, Portugal, and the USA. Exhibiting companies have already secured a net exhibition space of 88,600 square metres.
Digitalisation and Industry 4.0
“A lot of innovations have been developed in the past few years, with a focus on cost and resource efficiency. While digitalisation and Industry 4.0 were topics only large companies were realising at the previous EuroBLECH, these key drivers have now reached the factories of small and medium-sized companies too," says Evelyn Warwick, Event Director of EuroBLECH, on behalf of the organiser Mack-Brooks Exhibitions.
She adds, "Exhibitors at this year’s event will present everything they have to offer to innovate and digitalise the manufacturing process, along the entire sheet metal working technology chain. All these developments are reflected in this year’s motto for EuroBLECH, ‘Your gateway to a smarter future’."
Machinery and software
The event will offer everyone the opportunity to come together and see what the future of sheet metal working"
Evelyn Warwick continues, "The event will offer everyone in the community the opportunity to come together and see what the future of sheet metal working looks like."
She adds, "EuroBLECH offers its visitors the possibility to find solutions for the recent challenges in the industry and connects them with businesses from all over the world to help them integrate the latest machinery and software into their manufacturing process. An event that can’t be missed!.”

Our exhibitors are already busy preparing their participation for the long-awaited return of the show in October. Equally, we are getting a lot of requests from visitors planning their trip and visa,” concludes Evelyn Warwick.
