Preparations are underway for wire & Tube China 2024, scheduled for September 25 to 28 at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. This year's joint exhibition offers a comprehensive platform for showcasing innovation, emphasizing digital transformation and sustainable practices.
Discover wire & Tube China: a premier industry hub
wire & Tube China is the most relevant trade fair in the wire, cable, and tube industries in the region, organized by Messe Düsseldorf (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and the Shanghai Electric Cable Research Institute Co., Ltd. Since its debut in 2004, this event has become an essential meeting point for professionals, providing a platform to explore the latest trends, technologies, and products. Combining two major industry events — wire China and Tube China — into one, the exhibition offers an exhaustive showcase of industry advancements.
In 2023, the two events were held separately and attracted over 900 exhibitors and more than 40,000 collective professional visitors. The exhibition spanned 57,500 square meters. For 2024, the event is expected to expand even further, with an exhibition area of 114,500 square meters and more than 1900 exhibitors.
The venue will feature ten halls dedicated to various industry segments, which makes it easier for attendees to navigate and find relevant innovations. Pre-registrations for the event are now open, allowing attendees to secure participation in advance and avoid onsite registration queues.
Key focus areas at wire & Tube China 2024
The 2024 event will cover numerous topics, including machinery, processing equipment, and advanced materials. With a strong focus on sustainability and efficiency, key areas include digitalization in manufacturing, environmentally friendly practices, and the latest industrial automation technologies. Additionally, the fair will feature specialized equipment for spring and fastener manufacturing, presenting a full spectrum of industry solutions.
Trends shaping the Chinese wire & cable market
Asia-Pacific, particularly China and India, continues to dominate the wire and cable market due to rapid urbanization and industrialization. The region's demand for efficient power transmission and distribution systems is growing, driven by the adoption of renewable energy sources and the need for upgraded electrical infrastructure. Technologies like high-voltage direct current (HVDC) and submarine cables are becoming increasingly important, alongside the rise of smart grid technologies and the Internet of Things (IoT).
Globally, the wire and cable market was valued at approximately USD 240.3 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%, potentially reaching USD 500.7 billion by 2032. This growth is fueled by several elements, such as significant investments in infrastructure development, the shift toward renewable energy, and the expansion of the electric vehicle market.
