American Foundry Society's Metalcasting Congress 2023 Surpasses 225 Exhibitors, More Than 25 First-Timers

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., March 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- North America's premier foundry event will feature many new faces when it comes to Cleveland on April 25-27. Over 225 exhibitors already have reserved their spots at Metalcasting Congress 2023, including more than 25 companies exhibiting for the first time. Exhibit sales are ongoing, so both numbers will rise.

"The industry's positive response to the networking and marketing opportunities at Metalcasting Congress 2023 has been very strong," said Doug Kurkul, CEO of the American Foundry Society, which hosts the annual event. "We're seeing robust exhibit sales and expanded our show floor to accommodate more exhibits. We're also excited to welcome so many first-time exhibitors. Our attendees will certainly enjoy discovering what our new and longtime exhibitors have to offer."

Metalcasting Congress exhibitors range from equipment dealers and raw materials suppliers to robotics experts and additive manufacturing service providers who network with thousands of decisionmakers from across the entire metalcasting supply chain.

North American metalcasters have their own pavilion, Cast in North America, for doing business with casting designers and buyers. This group even has a custom slate of expert-led educational sessions, the Designers & Buyers Track, which is offered directly on the show floor at Metalcasting Congress.

Only a few exhibit spaces remain, and once they're sold, the floorplan cannot be expanded any further. To reserve an exhibit at Metalcasting Congress 2023 before it sells out, click here.
