Discover New Breakthroughs in the Chinese Market

 

Since the late 1980s, WireShow has experienced more than 30 years of development and growth and has become one of the most important wire and cable exhibitions in China and East-Asia. Last edition of WireShow reached a new record with a total exhibition area of 25,000 sqm, with more than 400 domestic and overseas companies showcasing their cutting-edge technologies and products to near 15,000 trade visitors. Both MDS and SECRI will take advantage of their resources to bring the bi-annual WireShow to new level. It will open its doors from 31st August to 2nd September at Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC) this year, covering a wide range of exhibits including wire & cable manufacturing and finishing machinery, cable auxiliary machining, materials for wires & cables and fiber cables, wires & cables, measuring and control technology, test engineering and specialist areas.

 

Mr. Marius Berlemann, General Manager of MDS, expressed his full expectation: "This brand-new cooperation is another opportunity for both MDS and SECRI to create a high-quality platform for its kind of industry in China besides to wire China. We believe that WireShow will do provoke the resumption and further development of the whole Chinese wire and cable industry and be an ideal trading and communication platform for the global industry in Shanghai."

 

The COVID-19 outbreak in China has been well controlled and various industries in China are steadily recovering. Driven by the "New Infrastructure" policy, many fields will usher in a new round of development including 5G infrastructure, extra-high voltage, intercity high-speed rail and rail transit, big data centers and many more. It can be foreseen that future demand for wire and cable products has a huge growth potential.

 

Last but not least, the organizers always take participants' safety as the top priority and will continue to implement strict pandemic precaution measures for both WireShow and wire China to create safe, efficient and stable business environment to the industry. Looking forward to meeting the industry at WireShow this year and wire China next September in Shanghai, where to find valuable contacts, learn latest industry trends and order innovative products!
