MMMA supports Metalworking Village at MACH 2006

Acting as an official co-sponsor for MACH 2006, the MMMA will be supporting a 'Metalworking Village' and will be launching its 2006 Members Handbook at the Show.

The Metalforming Machinery Makers' Association (MMMA), which is acting as an official co-sponsor of MACH 2006 at the NEC, Birmingham, will be launching its 2006 Members Handbook at the Show.

The MMMA, which is the sole representative body for the UK Metalforming Industry representing its members for over 56 years, issues a new Members' Handbook every two years to coincide with the Show.

At MACH 2006, the MMMA will be supporting a 'Metalworking Village' based around the MMMA stand and hospitality suite nr.

4918.

Support of the 'Metalworking Village' is only part of the package that the MMMA offers its members, there is also support of regional engineering shows within the UK, as well as support at certain overseas exhibitions.

The Associations Website is continuously updated, with members having the opportunity to amend their own pages and have their press material included.

This site is now visited by thousands of visitors every year as their first point of call for the metalforming equipment industry.

As part of this sponsorship, the MMMA will be clearly identified within the Village area.

MMMA members will receive discounted space rates, priority allocation of stand space, free first lift on and off for exhibits, as well as a 5% rebate for the prompt return of contract and stage payments.

All exhibitors at MACH 2006, whether MMMA members or not will received a free web and catalogue entry, free daily stand cleaning, unlimited visitor tickets and free exhibitors car parking.

David Brotherton, MMMA Secretary said: "We have been representing our members for many years now and over the last five years we have also offered members, the advantage of membership of METCOM, including training support, access to advisory services as well as access to the CBI and their appropriate committees".

" At MACH 2006, although the 'Village' concept is not new, it does bring together our members in one clearly defined area, making it easier for visitors to target particular products, in our case metal forming equipment".

"Our members receive considerable benefits on top of 'low exhibiting rates' at MACH.

We live in a very competitive market and we try to encourage all our members to be proactive in their approach to the market and by exhibiting at MACH, they are taking a very positive approach." The MMMA acts as the central organisation promoting the common interests of its members involved in the manufacture and sale of metalforming machinery and ancillary products, including tooling in the United Kingdom.
