Diary dates for 2013

Hundreds of manufacturing professionals with a specific interest in fastening attended the most recent FAST Exhibition, held on October 18th. As the country's only exhibition dedicated exclusively to advanced fastening, assembly and bonding across all industries and engineering application environments, the event is clearly gaining in popularity with design engineers, production professionals and senior manufacturing bosses who are keen to put things together better.

The Organisers are delighted to report a record turnout of pre-registered visitors who were eager to discover and discuss all the latest fastening and bonding developments, products, processes and practices to have emerged recently. Next year's FAST Exhibitions take place on 18th April 2013 at the RAF Museum Cosford, which has been referred to by visitors and exhibitors alike as their 'favourite location' and 2nd October 2013 at the Williams F1 Conference Centre, where visitors will be able to take guided tours of the Williams F1 Collection and also use the F1 simulator throughout the day. Products on display will again cover the full range of fastening and assembly solutions from threaded fasteners to structural adhesives, thread locking adhesives, fabric fasteners, springs and cabinet hardware.
