17th SteelFab postponed to June next year

01 December 2020

The Expo Centre Sharjah, the organiser and the host of the SteelFab exhibition, has announced the postponement of the 17th edition of the event. SteelFab 2021 – which was scheduled to be held in January 2021 – will be held in June next year.

The centre’s board of directors said that the decision was made after assessing the current global conditions and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the global economy, aviation, and air freight, and conferring with strategic partners and a number of industry leaders.

The centre added: “We have already reached an agreement with a number of exhibiting companies that have booked a reasonable percentage of stands and booths. However, the delay of the event would be in everyone’s best interest to attract the largest possible number of visitors and exhibitors.”

The early announcement of the new date of 17th SteelFab would help enable industry leaders to preset their plans and give them additional time to prepare for the event. The participating companies will also avoid the current restrictions of travel and allow both exhibitors and visitors to meet again with old and new customers in an enjoyable and productive environment through an unprecedented shopping experience.

The centre stated that is looking forward to welcoming the participants and delegations from all over the world to the new edition of SteelFab which will certainly have the same success as the previous years, thus reinforcing Sharjah’s status as a leading global destination in the exhibitions and conferences sector.

Throughout 16 years, SteelFab has managed to attract major players from leading UAE and international companies and brands in the field of the steel industry, metal cutting, welding machines, and other relevant industries.

SteelFab is organised with the support of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry and represents an annual forum to explore the latest equipment, advanced technologies, and new products and applications.
