The Bright World of Metals 2023 trade fair was a success for the metalcasting industry. The event brought together 63,300 visitors from 114 countries to explore the latest trends and technologies in the industry.

The trade fair featured a wide range of exhibits, including machines, plants, and solutions for the metalcasting industry. There were also numerous conferences and seminars on topics such as sustainability, artificial intelligence, and new casting technologies.

According to an attendee survey, 78% of visitors plan investments in the next two years. Nearly 70% of attendees were international visitors, with 31% having traveled from overseas.

Here are some of the key trends that were highlighted at the Bright World of Metals 2023:
