The global glass industry is one day away from gathering in Düsseldorf as glasstec 2026 opens tomorrow, 20 October, running through 23 October at Messe Düsseldorf, Germany.
Recognised as the world’s leading trade fair for the glass industry, glasstec brings together manufacturers, technology providers, processors, architects and industry professionals across the entire glass value chain. The 2024 edition welcomed 1,257 exhibitors from 50 countries and more than 32,000 visitors from over 120 nations.
This year’s programme puts digitalisation and artificial intelligence, sustainable resources, recycling and decarbonisation in focus. Visitors can explore developments in glass production, processing, finishing and façade applications, alongside live demonstrations and technical discussions.
For the industry, glasstec is more than an exhibition. It is an opportunity to assess emerging technologies, meet business partners and examine the solutions shaping glass manufacturing and construction.
