Créé il y a près de 25 ans, le Salon International du Patrimoine Culturel s’impose comme le salon du patrimoine le plus ancien et le plus important sur la scène européenne. Il s’inscrit, depuis sa création, comme le rendez-vous incontournable des acteurs du secteur : professionnels de la restauration et de la sauvegarde du patrimoine bâti ou non bâti, matériel ou immatériel. Les fonderies d'art occupent une place traditionnelle et précieuse dans ce paysage culturel.
Le Salon International du Patrimoine Culturel réunit chaque année plus de 330 exposants au sein du Carrousel du Louvre. Témoignant de la diversité des acteurs et de la multiplicité de leur compétence, il est l’occasion de nombreuses rencontres et de partages d’expériences autour de la protection des patrimoines.

EFF Annual Report – Europe’s Key Players
Available for download here The 2024 annual report of the European Foundry Federation (EFF) provides a comprehensive overview of the European foundry industry in a particularly challenging economic context. The year 2024 was marked by a widespread slowdown in industrial activity across Europe, affecting both ferrous and non-ferrous foundries. Total foundry production declined significantly due to a drop in demand from key customer sectors – automotive, construction, mechanical engineering, and industrial equipment – combined with high energy costs, increased regulatory pressure, and stronger international competition. Ferrous foundries were the most affected, while the non-ferrous segment showed greater resilience, although it too experienced a decline. The report also highlights the social and structural consequences of this situation: workforce reductions, site closures, and ongoing investment pressures. Despite these challenges, the foundry industry remains a strategic link in European industrial value chains, essential for the energy transition, infrastructure, mobility, and industrial sovereignty. Through this directory and statistical analysis, the EFF reaffirms its role as a reference for sector knowledge and its commitment to a competitive, resilient, and sustainable European foundry industry. ForgeFonderie France fully aligns with this dynamic as an active member of the European federation. Reports of the Countries |
