Growth in UK manufacturing is not just talk - fastener suppliers are
voting with their feet toward Fastening & Assembly Solutions Exhibition
in April - the UK's only fastening and assembly exhibition for
manufacturing industry, which has just sold out for the second time in
weeks. With all the original space sold well in advance of the event,
organisers NewbyCom recently expanded the floor plan and have now filled
the additional space. This means that the April 30th exhibition will be
the biggest ever at the RAF Museum Cosford venue, offering more fastening
solutions to engineering design, production and manufacturing
professionals than ever before.
Organiser Mark Newby commented, " I am especially pleased that exhibitors
are seeing the benefit of the very focused format our show offers and am
sure this will translate into a hugely worthwhile event for increasing
numbers of visitors"
Thousands of variations of fasteners, fastening methods and assembly
technologies may be seen at the event, catering for all material types
and all industrial applications. Experts from the key suppliers will be
on hand to discuss specific challenges, and OEM engineers are invited to
bring their drawings or samples with them to the event for free "on the
spot" examination, analysis, evaluation and recommendations. With more
companies exhibiting than ever before and widely acknowledged growth
driving development issues we are sure that visitors will not be
disappointed whether their application calls for a mechanical fastener, a
fixing system, an adhesive or an ingenious new approach to assembly.
The event takes place on April 30th and is open from 10am to 3pm. VIP
visitors (manufacturing professionals) qualify for a free luncheon and
free refreshments. Exhibition entry is free. Free parking is also
available, as is entry to the outstanding RAF Museum, which includes the
award-winning new 'Cold War' hangar. Exhibition details and pre-
registration facilities may be found at www.fastening-solutions-
