“…It’s not an easy period, but METEF again proved itself to be rich in content from every point of view. For us, METEF is a must”…
(Denise Razzetto, Wagstaff).

“…I was amazed by the size of the event and by the number of exhibitors, quality and international character. In the coming years, together with GIFA, METEF/FOUNDEQ will be the datum point for the foundry and diecasting businesses…”
(Luis Artero, Seat Group).

“…I did not visit the previous editions of Metef and was greatly impressed by the event’s completeness which covered the entire aluminium-transformation process. We shall not fail to attend the next edition…”
(Alois J. Franke, Aluminium Rheinfelden)

“...Events such as METEF foster the growth of aluminium…”
(Svein Richard Brandtzaeg, Hydro Aluminium Metal)

“…METEF grows with each edition and confirms its leading rank among the events of the global aluminium system…”
(Mario Bertoli, Metra)

“…The most significant fact of the 2004 METEF was the presence of numerous foreign delegations, testifying to METEF’s current international value…”
(Alberto Alberini, Italpresse).

“…Today, METEF is something more: it’s an event belonging to the system, a collective asset, which has advanced thanks to the contribution of everybody…”
(Enzo Cibaldi, Chairman of the METEF committee).

Italy’s expertise in the metal-casting industry is renowned worldwide. This is why we attended METEF as early as 2002 and gladly repeated the experience this year. Undoubtedly, the Brescia event is one of the world’s more important meeting points
(Shu Fang Zhang, China Foundry Association).

I express my total satisfaction for the organization of an event that is by now an established fact in Europe and the world and for the attendance of qualified visitors who make it all worthwhile.
Maurizio Ravelli (Tiesse Robot)

Significant growth, good attendance also from abroad, lots of noise (Hall 5), sanitary facilities not overclean. However, a good job.
Giovanni Campice (T.T. Tomorrow Technology)

Excellently organized event, the only true exhibition in our field. All exhibitors feel they are No. 1; we are looking forward to Alumec becoming part and parcel of this club.
(Alumec)

A top-level event, presented competently and professionally.
Giovanni Armento (B.B.C.)

Undoubtedly a winning exhibition; unfortunately, I have to say that its being held at the same time as the Hannover event does not help the exhibitors nor the visitors.
Remo Forlin (Forgialluminio)

It's the first exhibition in this sector and I want to express my warmest thanks to the organization and the exhibitors with whom I shared the stand.
Luciano Bergamaschi (Plastisac)

In spite of the current difficulties of the market, it was a good occasion to greet friends (customers and suppliers) at one convivial event. Organization good; the only sore spot, parking.
Francesca Capra(Raffineria Metalli Capra)

While we compliment the organization for both the exhibition and conference, we also express a participant's satisfaction for the quality and quantity of business contacts.
Gabriella Giampà (Lucchini Sidermeccanica)

An excellent, perfectly organized event. Unfortunately, the growing number of fairs within one month and a half (see Euroguss) caused the number of foreign visitors to drop. Better synergy among the European events is to be hoped for, also in view of a fair's financial, logistic and organizational burden.
Paolo Klaus (Tecnopres)

The event is good and so is its organization; the level of visitors is good, too. Timatec is a great idea, absolutely to be continued.
Erika Aprile (LLS lavorazioni leghe speciali)

We feel happy with this year's event, which made it possible for us to meet customers and suppliers in an informal, agreeable atmosphere. We trust and hope that in the coming year attendance will grow so as to give importance to our branch of the industry.
Roberto Niboli (Raffmetal)
