Hardware and Tools show gets bigger

HARDWARE + Tools Middle East is expected to get bigger and more representative this year, following last year’s edition, which attracted 233 hardware, tools and machinery suppliers and more than 450 brands.

Hardware + Tools Middle East 2014 is the region’s foremost trade and networking event for the hardware, tools, materials and machinery industry, and will be held at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre, Dubai, UAE from June 3 to 5.

The trade fair will feature four main focus areas, namely: tools, machinery, materials and hardware.

“The region is becoming increasingly significant on the global stage as an important consumer of construction and building materials, machinery and tools and this is driving considerable international interest in Hardware + Tools Middle East,” said Ahmed Pauwels, CEO of Epoc Messe Frankfurt.

“Providing a platform that is unmatched regionally to gain a broad overview of the regional market, the exhibition also functions as a show window for new products and technologies. It also serves as an excellent regional launch pad for international players.”
