METAL JAPAN Osaka

METAL JAPAN Osaka is a specialized trade fair dedicated to high-performance metals and metal processing technologies. It is held annually as part of the prestigious Highly-Functional Material Week, one of the world’s largest trade show platforms for advanced material technologies. Organized by RX Japan Ltd., a seasoned event organizer in high-tech industries, METAL JAPAN has established itself as a key platform where experts, companies, and developers present and discuss the latest materials, processing innovations, and industrial applications.

The event takes place at INTEX Osaka, one of Japan’s largest and most modern exhibition centers. Located in the economically significant Kansai region, it offers ideal infrastructure for hosting an international trade event of this scale. The fair is exclusively open to industry professionals and is held every May—an unmissable date in the calendars of many decision-makers in the metal industry.

At the heart of the exhibition are cutting-edge materials such as aluminum, titanium, copper, magnesium, precious metals, and steel—vital to high-tech sectors including automotive manufacturing, aerospace, electronics, and medical technology. The fair showcases the entire value chain, from material development and advanced processing techniques to quality assurance and inspection systems. A key focus is sustainability: recycling technologies, eco-friendly production processes, and the use of sustainable materials are comprehensively featured, positioning the fair as an important forum for environmentally conscious industrial development.

Highlights of the event include live demonstrations of innovative technologies, expert presentations by leading industry figures, and numerous networking opportunities that foster international collaboration. As part of the wider Materials Week, which also takes place in Tokyo (Makuhari Messe) and Nagoya (Port Messe), METAL JAPAN is embedded in an interregional network of expertise that spans all areas of materials science. It serves not only as a prominent showcase for innovations in metal processing, but also as a central hub for knowledge exchange and business development across Asia with global reach.

The METAL JAPAN will take place on 3 days from Wednesday, 14. May to Friday, 16. May 2025 in Osaka.
