Asiamold becomes Asiamold Select and announced second location
June 29, 2023
Asiamold organiser, Guangzhou Guangya Messe Frankfurt Co Ltd, has announced that starting in 2024, the Guangzhou-based show will be renamed Asiamold Select. Additionally, a second event will be held in Shenzhen in autumn, also located in China’s Guangdong province. The events aim to showcase efficient, innovative, and sustainable manufacturing solutions, including mould-making, Additive Manufacturing, die-casting, stamping and other technologies.
Guangdong serves as a central hub for a wide breadth manufacturing clusters. It is also reportedly the largest site for mould production and distribution in the country; over 30% of the country’s mould-making outputs are contributed by the province, but the market is fast diversifying.
One cause fuelling demand for a wider range of moulding solutions is the transition towards lightweight and alternative energy within the automotive market. For the moulding industry, this has prompted the need for technologies which specialise in the production of components for alternative fuel vehicles, electric vehicle batteries and photovoltaic energy storage.
In addition, the organiser of Asiamold Select has announced that it will partner with the Guangdong Die & Mould Industry Association (GDMA), with the association serving as a co-organiser for the exhibition. Established in 1987, GDMA is a leading organisation with experience assisting the development of the mould industry in Guangdong.
