At Exhibition Centre on the Rhine from 22 to 25 September 2015

EuroMold, World Fair for Moldmaking and Tooling, Design and Application Development, is moving from Frankfurt to Düsseldorf. For the first time now the event running from 22 to 25 September 2015 will be held at the exhibition centre on the Rhine. This news was announced by Managing Directors of the organiser DEMAT GmbH, Diana Schnabel and Dr.-Ing. Eberhard Döring. Annually, the trade fair brings together over 1,000 exhibitors and some 55,000 visitors from throughout the world.
One key reason for the switch in location is the new direction and more flexible approach of EuroMold at one of Germany`s most important and state-of-the-art exhibition centres. Düsseldorf is also located centrally in one of the strongest economic metropolitan regions in Europe; its importance as the regional capital of Germany`s most populous federal state North Rhine-Westphalia and, not least, the great exhibition expertise of Messe Düsseldorf have convinced us to hold EuroMold at Düsseldorf Exhibition Centre. 

Commenting on this move Diana Schnabel said: “Messe Düsseldorf is one of the most successful trade fair companies with an excellent reputation, especially in the field of plant, machinery and equipment trade fairs. Particularly in terms of the international spread of exhibitors and visitors Messe Düsseldorf leads. I am certain that EuroMold customers can greatly benefit from the know-how and the well-known quality service of our new partner.” Werner M. Dornscheidt, CEO at Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, adds: “As a guest event EuroMold is the perfect complement to our trade fair portfolio. With its line-up it offers the ideal bridging link to our plastics fair as well as to the events in our metal trade fair quartet GIFA, METEC, THERMPROCESS and NEWCAST and with its concept it closes the gap between industry designers, product developers, processors, suppliers and users. For EuroMold the Düsseldorf location means not just stability but also added impulses thanks to the synergies for exhibitors and visitors.”

A large proportion of EuroMold trade visitors come from the automobile industry (34%), mechanical engineering (26%), the electrical and electronics industry (11 %) as well as medical technology (10%) – sectors that are at home in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). At EUR 599.8 b NRW generated 21.9% of German GDP in 2013 ranking it very much top among all German federal states. North Rhine-Westphalian plant and machinery construction alone occupies national pole position – almost one in four German machines is produced here between the Rhine and the Weser. Over 1,600 mechanical engineering operations in the state employ just under 200,000 people. With some 800 firms and over 200,000 employees the automobile industry and its upstream suppliers is one of the strongest sectors in North Rhine-Westphalia. The electrical industry is also represented in the state of NRW across the entire spectrum and forms an indispensable part of the value added chain. Many of its 1,100 companies employing 155,000 people lead on the world market with their innovative products.

When it comes to the international spread of exhibitors and visitors at investment goods fairs, Messe Düsseldorf GmbH ranks N°1 worldwide. At its own events in the expert fields of plant, machinery and equipment some 70% of exhibitors and 60% of trade visitors come to the Rhineland from abroad and customers from a total of 162 countries attend trade fairs in Düsseldorf. Representations in 135 countries (72 foreign representations and subsidiaries) form the global network of the corporate group. The central location of Düsseldorf in the most densely populated region of Europe (the catchment area is home to 150 m people within a 500 km radius), its good traffic connections and comprehensive range of hotels and restaurants make travelling to and from the city and staying here very pleasant.

In 2015, EUROMOLD will kick off in Düsseldorf from the 22nd to the 25th of September with a new innovative concept – Exhibitors invited to dialogue
EUROMOLD – The World Fair for Moldmaking and Tooling, Design, Additive Manufacturing and Product Development will take place in Düsseldorf from the 22nd to the 25th of September 2015 – EUROMOLD invites exhibitors to Düsseldorf for info days on the 20th and 22nd of January 2015 – New trade fair concept will allow exhibitor co determination – The new concept `Evolution EUROMOLD` further strengthens and expands important areas of the fair

With the move to Düsseldorf EUROMOLD reinvents its position as the world`s leading trade fair for moldmaking and tooling, design, additive manufacturing and product development. The new exhibition concept will also give exhibitors the opportunity to take an active part in `shaping` EUROMOLD 2015, to take place from the 22nd to the 25th of September in Düsseldorf.

Interested exhibitors are invited to join us in Düsseldorf on the 20th or 22nd of January 2015 for two EUROMOLD info days to familiarise themselves with the hall conditions of the new site and share their opinions and ideas, while boot Düsseldorf, the world`s leading trade fair for boats, yachts and water sports, is underway.

To make this established trade fair concept of EUROMOLD, which has for more than 20 years been running successfully even more effective at the new Düsseldorf location, EUROMOLD has set itself the objective to incorporate the wishes and ideas of exhibitors in the new exhibition concept.
Dr. Eberhard Döring, Managing Director of EUROMOLD

The additive technologies are one example of the rapidly growing and impor-tant areas of the product development process chain, and the direct feedback from EUROMOLD customers is crucial in better representing this field to visitors. The input from exhibitors will enhance the entire field of engineering, as well as the tool, model and mold-making sectors to an even greater extent. True to the motto `from design to prototype to series`, the areas that are crucial for the development of new products, namely design and engineering, will be further expanded.

It is also essential for the new trade fair concept that EUROMOLD 2015 again manifests the character of the process chain trade fair as guiding principle. The focus is not only on the product designers and their innovative ideas, but also on the synergy between tool, model and mold-making and additive technologies.

“EUROMOLD is the original and so it will remain. We are evolving the sub-stantive conception of our trade fair to be an even stronger partner for our customers to give them a head start, because as a medium-sized company we can identify with the needs of our customers.
Over a period of 20 years, EUROMOLD has developed into a brand and proven that it has its finger on the pulse of time, where new products are not only conceived but also designed, and where the tools for these processes are shown,” says Dr. Eberhard Döring, Managing Director of EUROMOLD.

“The next EUROMOLD 2015 provides us all with a great opportunity. Many exhibitors with whom we are in contact have already commented positively on the new concept `Evolution EUROMOLD 2015` and announced their participation.

We will respond equally to the needs of exhibitors and visitors, also by making an established trade fair concept even better with the strong partner we have in Messe Düsseldorf and to continue to expand. Our expertise and the experience of 21 years have taught us how to bring the right exhibitors and visitors together. We will do everything we can to re-establish and further strengthen the importance of EUROMOLD for product development, namely to industrially develop new products faster and more cost effective,” says Diana Schnabel, Managing Director of EUROMOLD.

EUROMOLD 2015 will take place at the Düsseldorf exhibition centre from the 22nd to the 25th of September 2015.
