About the show
International Fastener Show China covers the entire fastener supply chain, from raw materials, wire, production and auxiliary equipment, moulds and consumables at one end to standard, non-standard and special-shaped finished fasteners at the other, together with the testing, packaging and handling technology around them.
Its three themed halls follow a single line from development and production through application to upgrading, and the exhibition is organised around export markets and stays close to end users. The products on show serve automotive, motorcycle, railway and high-speed rail, aerospace, electronics and electrical appliances, construction, shipbuilding, chemical, nuclear, furniture and wind power applications, among others.
