From October 22 to 25, 2024, 1,257 exhibitors from 50 countries and more than 32,000 trade visitors from 121 nations met at glasstec in Düsseldorf to experience the latest technologies, trends and innovations along the entire value chain of glass production and processing.
At the IGK stand in Hall 17, employees from the head office, the European agencies and North America held numerous discussions with trade visitors and colleagues from the insulating glass industry. The interest in IGK's product portfolio made it clear that the processing quality and therefore the reliability of sealants plays a more central role than ever for machine manufacturers and glass producers. IGK's participation in the trade fair was worthwhile. Many new contacts were made.
Overall, glasstec 2024 met with an extremely positive response from trade visitors from all over the world, as the Düsseldorf trade fair management summed up. A high level of internationality and a high proportion of decision-makers were recorded. Almost 80 percent of the visitors were managers. Around 75 percent of visitors came from abroad, including numerous guests from Europe, North America and Asia. Germany, Italy, France, Poland and the Netherlands were particularly well represented, as were the USA and China.
Messe Düsseldorf announced that the next glasstec will take place from October 20 to 23, 2026.
