Tube Russia 2017 declared a success THE Expo Centre in Moscow, Russia, hosted a joint presentation of four technology trade shows in June: wire Russia – the international wire and cable fair; Tube Russia – the international tube and pipe fair; Metallurgy Russia – the international metallurgical technology processes and metal products fair; and Litmash Russia – the international foundry fair. The four events took place in one venue, creating ideal synergies for exhibitors and visitors as well as short routes between stands. The regional trade fairs were organised by Messe Düsseldorf GmbH and Messe Düsseldorf Moscow, in partnership with the Russian joint-stock company VNIIKP for wire Russia, and Metal Expo for Tube Russia, Metallurgy Russia and Litmash Russia. Around 400 companies presented technical innovations from their indus- tries, covering an exhibition space of 5,545m 2 . As well as Russian exhibitors, many international companies were represented in Moscow, showcasing their products and services to the

Russian and Eastern European markets. With the football World Cup being held in Russia soon this is proving beneficial to the Russian construction industry as well as international companies that are involved in building Russia’s many stadiums and are working on infrastructure projects. Wire, cables, tubes, metal and foundry products are needed in large quantities for the stadiums.
