With the Subcontracting fair Z nearing full capacity and leading industry players already committed to Intec, preparations for the trade fair duo from March 11 to 14, 2025, at Leipziger Messe are well underway. The Intec and Z trade fairs, slated for 11 to 14 March 2025 at Leipziger Messe, are poised to be Europe’s premier gathering for the metalworking industry, skilled trades, and supplier sectors.

Highlighting their importance, Ulrike Lange, Project Director, emphasized, “In challenging economic times, maintaining strong communication and presence is crucial. Intec and Z will serve as the perfect launchpad for investment decisions, building relationships, and exploring emerging areas like hydrogen systems production.”

Longstanding participants such as BIMATEC SORALUCE, Carl Zeiss, FANUC, and Mitsubishi Electric have already confirmed their participation. Similarly, key exhibitors at Z, including ALKAZ, Gemino, and Poppe + Potthoff Präzisionsstahlrohre, are registered. Newcomers and returning exhibitors, including Hahn+Kolb and Simtek at Intec and Perlon and TOPTUBE at Z, also aim to leverage the event’s networking and business opportunities.

Highlighting international engagement, collective stands from Poland, Bulgaria, and the Czech Republic will showcase Eastern European markets. Z boasts a high proportion of international exhibitors, with 24% coming from abroad. Industry bodies such as FDPW, VDMA, and regional organizations like TGZ Bautzen and Saxony Economic Development Corporation will enrich the exhibition.

Interactive hall plans for both fairs are now live, offering visitors a preview of the expansive showcase. The Intec and Z fairs are hosted by Leipziger Messe, a top-ten German and globally ranked trade fair organizer.
