From exhibitor to your list.

Kodo reads the whole exhibitor list and keeps only what fits you. Every stage is a check, not an estimate: what drops out, drops out with a reason.

The width of the stages is schematic, not a number. Only the exhibitor figure at the top comes from the organiser.

The Kodo angle

Foundries and their suppliers: investment on a four-year cycle

The four fairs take place only every four years, so investment decisions bunch up around them. Foundries buy in furnaces, moulding plants and machining; casting makers supply machine building and automotive. Kodo filters the exhibitors to your area and adds what the company shows otherwise.

  • 01Foundries and plant builders from your area, with material and process
  • 02Investment, jobs and growth of the company, with date and link
  • 03Only every four years: 2027 from 21 to 25 June in Düsseldorf

GIFA and NEWCAST for sales

GIFA in Düsseldorf is the foundry trade fair and runs together with METEC, THERMPROCESS and NEWCAST under the name The Bright World of Metals. It takes place only every four years: foundries, plant builders and casting makers show what they will build and buy in the years ahead. For sales in the German-speaking region, the firms based in Germany, Austria and Switzerland count.

What Kodo makes of it

Kodo separates the foundries from the plant builders and matches every exhibitor to a company. For foundries, Kodo adds whether they invest in furnaces, moulding plants or machining, advertise jobs or grow in the annual accounts. The result is on your salesperson's conversation list, with contact and source.
