The 10th edition of India Essen Welding & Cutting (IEWC) opened today at the Bombay Exhibition Centre in Mumbai, India. At South Asia’s leading trade fair for joining, cutting and surfacing technologies, exhibitors are showcasing their latest products, services and innovations in both manual and automated welding through Friday. Trade visitors gain a comprehensive overview of the industry as India Essen Welding & Cutting runs alongside METEC India, Tube India and wire India. Together, these four events form India's largest trade fair platform for welding, cutting and surfacing as well as tubes, cable technology and metallurgy with over 530 exhibitors from 14 nations.
The importance of the Indian market cannot be overstated. With over 1.4 billion people, India is not only one of the world’s largest economies but is also experiencing massive infrastructure development. India’s GDP recently grew by 7.6% — a top-tier rate among emerging markets. Projects in transportation, energy, and industry offer enormous opportunities for companies in welding and cutting technology. By 2047, India aims to produce 500 million tons of steel annually while significantly reducing emissions — a bold target that highlights the importance of modern joining technologies.
As a subsidiary event of the world's leading trade fair SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN in Essen / Germany, which will take place for the next time in 2025, the IEWC offers companies a valuable opportunity to expand their presence in one of the world's most dynamic markets. For trade visitors, it is a unique opportunity to find out about innovations in the industry.
