For the second year in a row, the special section MITEX Fasteners has been consistently formed as an independent and professional platform for the fasteners and hardware market. The project is part of the Moscow International Tool Expo – MITEX, the largest in Russia and the CIS countries, which will be held on November 10-13, 2026 in Moscow, at the Crocus Expo IEC.
Already in 2025, the project showed a solid start: 55 companies from Russia, China and India presented their solutions, and the exhibition itself demonstrated how high the market's interest in a specialized format entirely dedicated to fasteners is.
The growth in demand for fasteners in Russia is offset by an increase in supplies from abroad
Today, the Russian fasteners market is developing in difficult conditions: Demand from construction and industry is growing, but at the same time competition from imports is increasing. In response, domestic manufacturers are increasingly rebuilding their business models: investing in equipment upgrades, automation, and new materials, expanding product lines, developing cooperation with scientific and engineering centers, and building more flexible logistics. In this strategy, industry events such as MITEX Fasteners become an important tool — this is where companies can demonstrate the level of their products, find new partners and respond more quickly to market demands.
Participation in MITEX Fasteners provides a unique opportunity to review the market for fasteners and hardware systems, monitor trends and prices, and sign contracts for the supply of products and equipment. Find out the terms of participation with the stand >>
MITEX Fasteners was created for such a dialogue. The exhibition is built around the real needs of the industry and covers the entire path of fasteners — from production to end use:
Industrial and construction fasteners;
Assembly and installation systems;
Nails and wire;
Equipment and technologies for the manufacture of fasteners;
Solutions for testing and quality control;
Standardization and certification;
Packaging, storage, logistics and sales.
In 2025, the participants of the MITEX Fasteners section presented the entire range of products at the stands — from classic hardware, anchors, bolts, nuts and rivets to specialized solutions for mechanical engineering, automotive, aircraft, shipbuilding, electronics, electrical engineering, furniture and construction industries.
Among the exhibitors are Russian and foreign manufacturers and suppliers, specialized factories from China and India with their own facilities, large distribution and multidisciplinary groups, as well as Russian wholesale companies and B2B marketplaces working directly with industrial enterprises. Among them, SHANGAHI PRIME FASTENERS, ZHEJIANG EN HONG METAL MATERIAL, HISENER, SHANGHAI TANDL, JIEXI DAHUA FASTENERS, I-GROUP.LTD, RELEX INDUSTRIES, AGGARWAL INTERNATIONAL, BORER, VOLNA, GEFEST, KBT PLANT, SCAFFOLDS PLANT Co. Ltd, PZM LLC, CENTER METIZ, B2B MARKETPLACE MAKSMART and others.
An indisputable advantage for participating in the MITEX Fasteners section is a high-quality visitor audience, the number of which is growing every year. In 2025, during the 4 days of the exhibition, 29,600 industry professionals got acquainted with the MITEX exposition. Of these, 11.8% identified the MITEX Fasteners section as one of their areas of interest, which is 3,491 specialists. At the same time, 82.9% of them participate in the procurement decision.
The exposition is complemented by a rich business program. Last year, for the first time, the MITEX exhibition hosted the conference "Modern Fasteners and Alternative Solutions", which became a platform for discussing key market challenges and practical ways of development.
MITEX Fasteners is not just an exhibition section, but a working environment for finding solutions, strengthening the positions of Russian manufacturers and forming a new competitive architecture of the fasteners market in Russia.
