The international trade fair is held on an annual basis in Jönköping, Sweden, sometime around November. Trade visitors experience the latest in machine tools, machine components, machinery components, assembly equipment, raw materials and manufacturing processes. Elmia AB serves as the official organiser and the fair takes place at the Elmia Exhibition Centre over the course of four days. Doors open at 09:00 am until 17:00 pm, with the only exception being the last day when the closing time is scheduled for 15:00 pm.
In operation for the better part of forty years, Elmia Subcontractor has been able to rise through the ranks a major meeting place for all players involved in the manufacturing industry. This was achieved in no small part thanks to the commitment to cover the entire processing chain, and there is much to be said about the type of industries that send representation – the automotive, machine building and electro/electronics industry.
