More than 300 participating companies — steel structure manufacturers and steel product producers, foundry enterprises, equipment and engineering solution suppliers, as well as construction and installation organisations from Russia and abroad, including China, Turkey, and Belarus — presented their services, technologies, and equipment at exhibition stands. The participation and strong interest shown by international exhibitors, particularly Chinese companies, underscores the strategic potential of the Russian market.

The Metal-Expo Directorate took part in the 24th China International Foundry Exhibition Metal China'2026 at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre in Shanghai. The event was organised by Metal-Expo's partner China Foundry Association, which this year celebrates its 40th anniversary.
