ANKIROS 2026, the 17th International Iron-Steel, Foundry, Non-Ferrous Metallurgy Technologies, Machinery and Products Trade Fair, will take place at Istanbul Expo Center on 22–24 October 2026.
Organised by Hannover Messe Ankiros Fuarcılık A.Ş., the fair will bring together professional visitors and companies operating in iron and steel, foundry, non-ferrous metals, industrial furnaces, heat treatment, automation and process technologies. The event will be held in Halls 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 of Istanbul Expo Center.
Melting and casting technologies, iron and steel production equipment, moulding systems, refractory solutions, measurement and quality control equipment, and environmental and filtration technologies will be on display at the fair. Energy efficiency, digitalisation, automation, process optimisation and low-carbon production will also be among the fair’s key topics.
ANKIROS 2026 will also feature the TURKCAST Casting Products Special Section. The section aims to enable foundries producing for sectors including automotive, machinery, energy, defence and transport to present their products and production capabilities to international buyers.
The 23rd International Metallurgy and Materials Congress (IMMC 2026) will be held concurrently with the fair. Addressing sustainable metallurgy, critical raw materials, advanced materials technologies and the circular economy, the congress will bring together representatives of academia and industry.
During the same period, the 76th World Foundry Congress (WFC 2026) will also take place in Istanbul, from 18 to 24 October. As a result, Istanbul will become one of the major meeting points of the international metallurgy and foundry industry for a week.
