October 21, 2014

The recent staging of wire China 2014, the 6th All China International Wire and Cable Industry Trade Fair, and Tube China 2014, the 6th All China International Tube and Pipe Trade Fair, in Shanghai closed to record results: a total of 1,461 exhibitors presented the latest technology, machinery and products from the wire, cable and tube processing industries to more than 38,000 visitors.

In addition to the strong Chinese participation and many international exhibitors, wire and Tube China 2014 featured country group exhibits from Austria, France, Germany, Italy and the U.S. Exhibitors reported many international visitors who were not only interested in the products, but also prepared to buy.

The organizers Messe Düsseldorf, Messe Düsseldorf China and their local partners - Metallurgical Council of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (MC-CCPIT) and the Shanghai Electric Cable Research Institute (SECRI) - were delighted with the positive feedback of the participants.

“Messe Düsseldorf, Messe Düsseldorf China and their local partners MC-CCPIT and SECRI are very satisfied with the outcome of the trade fair duo,” said Werner M. Dornscheidt, CEO of Messe Düsseldorf.

He added, “With the rapid growth of wire & Tube China, we managed to not only exceed the visitor and exhibitor results from 2012 but to also strengthen our position as Asia’s leading wire, cable and tube trade fairs.”

Heinz Rockenhaeuser, president, International Wire and Cable Exhibitor’s Association (IWCEA), said of the show: “Wire china 2014 went very well and we had a lot of visitors especially on the first day. We are pleased with the four days of the show – many international attendees want to have meetings on Saturday. Visitor groups come to this event not just to see and order products but also to decide about exhibiting in two years from now.”

The next wire and Tube China will be held Sept. 26-29 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).

Water Stewardship Efforts MGM Resorts understands the importance of using water efficiently, especially in the desert destination of Las Vegas. Conserving water has always been part of the mission, but MGM Resorts has expanded its ambition into water stewardship. In 2022, MGM Resorts President and CEO Bill Hornbuckle signed the CEO Water Mandate—a UN Global Compact initiative mobilizing business leaders to advance water stewardship. MGM Resorts International was the first gaming company to take this important step. MGM Resorts replaced 200,000 square feet of real grass with drought-tolerant landscaping in Las Vegas. MGM Resorts pledges to reduce water withdrawal intensity by 33% by 2025 and by 35% by 2030. From 2007-2021, use of more than 5.6 billion gallons of water was avoided because of conservation efforts. Caring for One Another MGM Resorts’ Food Donations Program collects and preserves unserved food from conventions held at MGM Resorts properties, then safely donates to food insecure people in the community. Since the program’s launch in 2016, more than 3.7 million meals toward a 2025 goal of 5 million meals have been donated into the community. Donations include: Unserved perishable prepared foods from events Perishable unprepared food from MGM Resorts’ kitchens Nonperishable food items from minibars and warehouses The collaboration with Southern Nevada’s primary food bank, Three Square, has developed the infrastructure needed to safely collect, transport, and store food from MGM Resorts properties in Las Vegas, reducing food waste while serving the community.
