2nd Exhibition for Fastenerand Fixing Technology

26-27 September 2018 | MiCo | Milan | Italy

Following its highly successful debut in 2016, Italy’s essential showcase for suppliers of fastener and fixing products, services and manufacturing technologies returns to Milan.

Italy is one of the world’s leading economies, with its GDP ranked eighth globally and fourth in Europe in 2015 by the World Bank. Manufacturing remains a key area of national output, especially in the automotive, aerospace, machinery and household goods sectors. As a consequence, the country’s industries represent a major market for fastener products.

In addition, Italy is one of the leading European centres for the manufacture of fasteners and fixings, serving both its own domestic industries and export markets worldwide.
