“The NADCA's Congress & Exposition proved to be one of the best ever. A sold out floor and record attendance at the Congress sessions proves that the industry is extremely prosperous and forward thinking in terms of applying new technology with new equipment.  Our goals for exhibitors, attendees and the awards luncheon were exceeded by a significant percentage due to the interest the die casting industry has shown,” said NADCA President, Daniel Twarog. “Moving forward, the changes in our industry's' machines, supplies and alloys will demonstrate our ability to produce the best die castings in the world. Thanks to everyone that exhibited and attended this signature event for the industry.”
“Great job NADCA, for hosting a tremendous event this year in Indy! By all accounts, this show was one of the best we’ve been involved with since participating. The quantity and quality of attendees and sessions were tremendous, and really generated great excitement and enthusiasm for the future of the die casting industry in the U.S. and around the world. Versevo’s team is proud to be recognized and affiliated with this tremendously important manufacturing community,” Terry Moon, President & CEO, Versevo Inc.
