The fair attracted a total of 206 exhibitors. Given the fact that Southeast Asiancountries have risen up lately after the pandemic years, the organizer put up aVietnam Pavilion and India Pavilion at the fair. In addition, the organizer held
seminars at the venue focusing on die casting, eco-friendly
car parts joining and welding technology, climate change
and other automotive industry related issues.
Fastener World’s staff onsite reported that visitors weremanufacturers, traders and academic institute personnel
mostly from automotive, shipbuilding, electronics and otherperipheral industries. Although South Korea highly relies
on metal and industrial parts imported from China, quite alot of visitors said Taiwanese fastener and industrial related
products are also very attractive and well-recognized fortheir high quality. At the venue were a lot of visitors andexhibitors from fasteners, metal wires, forging, metal heat treatment and coating,automobile and machine parts, and hand tool industries.
