IFEX 2024
International trade fair in India celebrates its 20th anniversary
The strong growth of the Indian foundry industry was the main theme of this year's IFEX in Bangalore. Fittingly, the motto of the 72nd Indian Foundry Congress was "Unleashing the opportunities".
In addition to the growth of the Indian foundry industry, the focus was also on the targeted improvement of quality standards and the topic of sustainability. The Gargi HA stand was a central meeting point for international trade visitors and the specialist presentations also attracted a great deal of interest. In addition, there was great networking in the social media and IFEX forums.
With a record number of around 17,000 visitors, the trade fair was a complete success for both the organizers and the entire HA Group team!

The international foundry family met again in Düsseldorf
Under the slogan "Shaping the future together", the HA Group booth once again became the central meeting point for professionals in the foundry industry. In addition to informative presentations and numerous exhibits, personal contact was the focus of the fair. Also this year, the HA Group participated in the Metals4You campaign with its own youth booth. Based on an exciting quiz on the topic "It doesn't work without casting", the diverse future and career opportunities in the industry were presented.
Thanks to our creative team from Coatings Product Management, our "HArt" art auction took place for the first time, with the proceeds being donated to a UNICEF aid project for children in Yemen.
