We invite you to participate in METAL SHOW & TIB 2026, Romania’s leading technical trade fair! Organized annually by EUROEXPO Fairs and ROMEXPO, METAL SHOW & TIB is the key meeting point for industry professionals, where technology and equipment suppliers, machining tools, and automation solutions for the metalworking industry connect directly with production specialists and decision-makers eager to explore new solutions and advanced technologies—many of them showcased for the first time at a trade fair in Romania.

The 2026 edition strengthens its role as a technology and industrial business HUB, focusing on solutions that transform traditional manufacturing into the smart factories of the future:

  • Advanced technologies for smart factories: digitalization, automation, and system integration.
  • Expansion and strengthening of the ‘Industrial Robots and Cobots. System Integration’ sector, aligned with global industry trends.
  • Access to international partners through national pavilions.

We aim to ensure exhibitor diversity through:

  • Active promotion of the fair via embassies, commercial sections, and bilateral chambers of commerce.
  • Collaboration with specialized institutions for organizing collective international participations.

The national pavilions will transform METAL SHOW & TIB 2026 into a strategic platform for global connectivity.
