EuroBLECH 2022, the 26th International Sheet Metal Working Technology Exhibition, opens its doors this week at the Hanover Exhibition Centre in Germany. From 25 – 28 October 2022, 1,300 exhibitors from 39 countries will showcase their latest innovative manufacturing solutions. Reflected in this year’s motto ‘Your gateway to a smarter future’, EuroBLECH 2022 focuses on intelligent solutions and the ongoing automation and digitalisation of the manufacturing chain to enable an increase in output and efficiency.
With a net exhibition space of around 87,000 square metres, the event covers the entire sheet metal working technology chain, presenting 15 technology sectors across 9 halls. More than 50% of the exhibitors come from outside Germany reflecting the global importance of the industry sector. The major exhibitor countries, besides Germany, are Italy, Turkey, China, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Poland, Austria, Portugal, France and the USA.
After a compulsory break, this year’s edition marks the long-awaited return of the world’s leading trade exhibition for the sheet metal working industry. The exhibition provides the opportunity to finally catch up with the latest innovations that have been developed in the past few years, as well as meeting with new and existing business contacts. Numerous live demonstrations at the exhibition stands offer trade visitors the opportunity to experience machines and systems from all areas of sheet metal working in action.

Student Day at EuroBLECH 2022
The young generation is increasingly gaining importance in the sheet metal working industry due to the digital transformation and the related changes to occupational profiles. In addition, the last few years have been challenging to get a foot in the industry due to insufficient in person events and networking opportunities. Therefore, EuroBLECH offers students the opportunity to visit EuroBLECH free of charge. On Friday, 28th October 2022, students will be able to get free entry to the show when presenting a valid student ID at the entrance. During all other show days, students are invited to visit at a reduced student fare of €18 per day ticket.
