An integral part of the Bright World of Metals and long a successful model
With the help of Messe Düsseldorf's ecoMetals campaign, exhibiting companies that invest in innovative, sustainable and economically competitive technologies are promoted and specially marked so that visitors can follow the ecological path of the foundry and metalworking industries virtually in real time.
These measures make the GIFA/METEC/THERMPROCESS/NEWCAST trade fair quartet also a global leader in sustainability and a carbon-neutral future. Take the opportunity and have a look at our program overview below!
Forums, guided tours, future knowledge - all under one logo!
The ecoMetals logo reliably shows you the way to the future topic ecoMetals! Be it on the ecoMetals Trails to specially marked exhibitors or on the ecoMetals Forum events, with which you can delve deeply into various topics. And be curious which Green Pioneer will receive the ecoMetals Award.
The components of the ecoMetals campaign are framed by entertainment: The ecoMtals Casino in the North Entrance will take place according to the motto "All in on zero green" and a ecoMetals Slam will provide a grand finale to the ecoMetals Forum.
