The Middle East aluminium industry will come under the global spotlight with the fourth edition of the Aluminium Middle East exhibition, which will be held from April 14 to 16, 2015 at Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre (DICEC). Expected to attract over 200 exhibitors from 25 countries, the event will bring together top regional and international producers, suppliers and investors. Harbor Intelligence, a firm specialised in global aluminium market trends, analysis and forecasts, estimates that Gulf investments in the aluminium sector will reach $55 billion by 2020, compared with $30 billion in 2011, thanks to smelters’ expansion and new projects in the region. The number of visitors at the 2015 edition is also expected to reach 4,000, a 14% increase over the last edition, which attracted 3,523 visitors. ank
