The international hardware fair Ferroforma and Bricoforma DIY show, which have previously taken place every two years in the autumn in Bilbao, Spain, are to be moved to a different biennial slot. The date of the show is being moved from autumn to the spring, with the next one taking place from 7 to 10 March 2007. The Bilbao fair will thus offer a European platform for the international hardware and DIY sector in odd years, while Cologne’s hardware fair will provide the meeting place in even years.
