About International Glass Manufacturing Show
International Glass Manufacturing Show, known as IGMS, is organised by Strategic Exhibitions & Conferences. Dubai World Trade Centre lists the 2027 show as its fourth Dubai edition. The organiser describes IGMS as a B2B platform for the glass industry and its entire value chain in the Middle East and Africa, and it shows glass products alongside the full range of production, processing and finishing machinery.
Themes for the 2027 programme include smart and energy-efficient glass, digital transformation, AI-enabled quality and furnace monitoring, and evolving sustainability standards. The organiser’s featured speakers come from companies including Schüco Middle East, Corning International, Kratos Glass and HD Smart Glass, and the organiser says the show connects markets across the Middle East, Africa, Asia and beyond. It also states its aim as a platform that addresses the challenges of the glass industry while showcasing advances in high-tech machinery, automation and digitalisation.
What’s on the show floor
The organiser groups the exhibition into glass products, glass production technologies, glass manufacturing machinery, glass processing machinery and glass finishing machinery. Dubai World Trade Centre adds that visitors can explore glass applications across construction, architectural façades, automotive, renewable energy, electronics and packaging.

The organiser’s pitch to exhibitors centres on access to local, regional and international buyers, and on meeting prospective suppliers and distributors.
