The event centers around the three defining megatrends of the industry: Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and the Energy Transition. Visitors can experience how AI and smart robotics revolutionize efficiency and safety in manufacturing through machine learning and IoT connectivity.
A particular focus lies on the energy transition theme: While Tube presents innovative pipe solutions for hydrogen infrastructure and CO₂ transport, wire showcases pioneering conductor technologies for wind power and photovoltaics. As a new feature, the special area “World of Cables” will highlight the crucial role of cable end products for a sustainable high-tech future.
Solar Industry as Growth Engine
Solar energy is experiencing an unprecedented boom with record numbers, billion-dollar investments, and new gigawatt factories worldwide. This development is driving strong demand for high-performance cable technology and opening extraordinary opportunities for the cable industry. Asia serves as the pacemaker of the global energy transition, providing important impulses for the entire industry.
International Networking
In addition to the main event in Düsseldorf, the global wire & Tube portfolio offers numerous opportunities for international market development. wire & Tube Southeast Asia takes place from September 17-19, 2025, in Bangkok, Thailand, followed by wire & Tube China from September 21-24, 2026, in Shanghai. These international trade fairs enable companies to tap into new markets, establish important contacts, and experience the regional characteristics of international wire and tube markets firsthand.
wire & Tube 2026 thus promise to once again become a comprehensive platform for innovations, networking, and market insights that will significantly shape the future of the wire, cable, and tube industry.
