What Metalcasting Congress 2026 Offers Attendees And Exhibitors
Presented by the American Foundry Society, the largest professional and trade organization serving the $52 billion metalcasting industry, Metalcasting Congress 2026 is North America’s premier event for foundry professionals, industry suppliers, and their customers.
If you’re a foundry professional, this is a don’t-miss opportunity to access top-tier education, networking sessions, and product discovery all under one roof. The event features in-depth technical seminars covering the newest industry innovations and meet-and-greets with world-renowned metalcasting experts. You’ll be able to join panels that explore modern management strategies, enjoy motivating keynote presentations, and connect with peers at networking events.
The showcase floor allows industry suppliers to exhibit their cutting-edge metalworking solutions and build relationships with leading foundry professionals. Additionally, exhibitors will be able to access advanced technical presentations that put them in direct proximity to peers and prospective customers, providing ample opportunity to forge new partnerships.
Metalcasting Congress 2026 also offers designers, buyers, and OEM representatives focused programming tailored to their priorities, such as casting case studies, reshoring strategies, material selection, performance considerations, and quality improvements.
