It is a matter of satisfaction that in 4th IFCE we have ever higher number of participation from Pakistan, Italy, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Turkey, China, India and Japan. Pakistan Foundry Association thanks all foreign and local speakers, technologist, delegates and exhibitors who traveled especially to participate in this mega event and have discussed advances and technical opportunities available in the world.
We have a large automobile industry about 500,000 vehicles, 80,000 tractors and products from other sectors sugar mills, cement, chemical, fertilizer industries and other heavy engineering products required in the country. We produce almost 400 thousand tons cast iron and different forms of mould metal but there is still a bigger potential of developing parts which are imported in Pakistan.
Pakistan is set to grow as a producer and exporter of castings expected high growth in auto sector, tractor industry and agriculture machinery, truck and bus sector. Pakistan is still an economical market and our prices are comparable with good quality beside energy crises in the industry.
This will also be an excellent opportunity for participants to visit the historic city of Lahore.
