The EUROGUSS trade show is actually the kick-off event for the industry every two years. But like so many events, Corona is throwing a spanner in the works. At the request of the exhibitors, the trade show has been postponed to June 2022. But this doesn't means stagnation. With the EUROGUSS Studio Edition, the organizers have succeeded in making a skilful impact. The central element: the award ceremony for the first European Die Casting Award. Here, the respective 1st to 3rd places were finally unveiled and it was announced which companies were behind the award-winning components.
