The inaugural Central Asia International Hardware Expo (CAIHE) 2026 will be staged from 24 to 26 November 2026 at Uzexpocentre, Pavilions 3 & 4 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Backed by EISENWARENMESSE’s global hardware expertise and Koelnmesse’s international event network, CAIHE is positioned as Central Asia’s dedicated B2B hardware trade exhibition, bringing together global suppliers and professional procurement buyers across the region.

Central Asia’s Strategic Position and Expanding Hardware Market Potential

Central Asia sits at the strategic crossroads of Europe and Asia, forming a key trade hub that links established and emerging Eurasian markets. Accelerating infrastructure construction, industrial modernization and expanding cross-border commerce are driving consistent growth in regional demand for hardware products and industrial solutions, creating substantive business opportunities for international suppliers. As the economic and demographic core of Central Asia, Uzbekistan grants visa-free entry to citizens of more than 90 countries, facilitating travel for global trade professionals and underpinning an open, business-friendly environment for cross-border cooperation.

A Centralised Sourcing Venue Spanning Diverse Hardware Product Categories

CAIHE brings together an extensive lineup of qualified exhibitors whose ranges cover hardware product for construction, industrial operation and maintenance purchasing. Instead of sourcing through separate, scattered channels, visitors can assess suppliers side by side, compare product options, discuss commercial terms and build long-term cooperation within one single venue. The show presents hand tools, power tools, pneumatic tools, welding equipment, fastening technologies and products, building hardware, gardening and outdoor equipment, safety protection equipment and industrial service solutions, catering to procurement requirements from distributors, project contractors, manufacturers and retail operators.

Diversified Hardware Solutions from a Global Roster of Exhibitors

CAIHE gathers quality manufacturers and established hardware brands from Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, India, South Korea, Kazakhstan, China and Uzbekistan, presenting a broad and diversified portfolio of hardware products, technical solutions and supply models. Exhibitors from each region contribute their respective market expertise and product strengths, covering high-precision industrial hardware, standard bulk products, customised application solutions and flexible supply options, without being confined to a single positioning or price tier.

Serving Visitors Across the Full Spectrum of Business Profiles

The show addresses visitors across a comprehensive range of business categories, including retailers and wholesalers, agents and distributors, importers and exporters, cross-border e-commerce operators, MRO procurement teams, building materials and home improvement stores, engineering contractors, manufacturers and real estate developers, as well as DIY enthusiasts. Each visitor group can identify product selections, technical support and potential business partnerships aligned with its own operational requirements.
