Tube 2012, 26-30 March, Düsseldorf, Germany
New look for the ITA at Tube Düsseldorf 2012
Even the problems caused by the Icelandic volcanic eruption during the 2010 event have failed to diminish the popularity of the Tube Düsseldorf exhibition, which has continued to grow in size and importance establishing itself as the world’s pre-eminent trade fair for the tube and pipe industry. By the end of 2011 the provisional 2012 exhibit space was more than 47,000m2, a healthy increase over 2010. The ITA has been the long-standing industry partner for Tube Düsseldorf lending its full support for this vitally important trade fair. Wire Düsseldorf, which runs concurrently with Tube will have exhibit space in excess of 56,000m2 meaning that the combined total for the two trade fairs will exceed 100,000m2 for the first time.
The ITA stand 4F-17 will be in its usual prime location in hall 4 with a completely new look for this year’s exhibition and will be providing an extensive range of services for all its members, whether exhibiting or visiting the event. It will offer a comprehensive office service with Internet, phone, fax and photocopier as well as free bookable meeting rooms. On duty will be skilled multilingual staff to assist with interpreting and there will be a bar and kitchen service providing hospitality to all visitors. All ITA members receive a free entrance voucher to Tube Düsseldorf as a membership benefit, sent out in advance of the exhibition.
