Shanghai Metal World Expo (MTM EXPO) held from 2–4 December 2025 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre, covering an area of 40,000 sqm and gathering 1,000+ exhibitors and over 30,000 professional visitors from across the global metal industry. Originating from the Shanghai International Metallurgical Industry Exhibition established in 1986, MTM EXPO now integrates seven themed exhibitions—metallurgy, refractory materials, casting & forging, steel pipes, wire products, industrial furnaces, and nonferrous metals—creating a one-stop sourcing and technology platform for the entire steel and metallurgy value chain. Organized by leading national and regional associations, the 2025 edition focuses on technological innovation, green low-carbon development, intelligent manufacturing, and high-efficiency production, fostering cooperation and advancement across the global metal and materials industries.
