Tube Forming Tech Paper Session @ Tube & Wire Southeast Asia

2025
Summary Report (Tube & Wire–Focused Industry Trends)
Tube & Wire Southeast Asia 2025 was held at BITEC (Bangkok Inter-
national Trade & Exhibition Centre) in Bangkok, Thailand, from
September 17 to 19, 2025, positioning itself as the largest specialized
exhibition for tube and wire industries in Southeast Asia.
NAKATA participated in this tech paper session in BITEC two times,
our first time was in 2023.
Same as last time, the exhibition in Thailand was vibrant and many
exhibitors appeared young and energetic. While there were relatively
few for new or groundbreaking technologies on display, it was evident
that exhibitors are actively and earnestly working on improvements in
on-site production technologies. Overall, the event gave the impres-
sion of a dynamic and forward-looking industry, with a notably large
presence of younger visitors throughout the venue.
This BITEC show is more than an exhibition, which offered us a great
opportunity and platform to stay ahead of the curve in the tube and
pipe industry, by gaining valuable insights from experts and leaders
from all over the world. Besides, the conferences and forums also
offered not only us but all attendees a chance for knowledge sharing,
discussion and debate, which definitely helped us deepen our under-
standing of the latest trends, technologies and practices in industry.
