Introducing IFSA – Uniting the Fastener and Spring Sector on a Global Stage 

Developed in association with IWMA, IFSA brings immediate credibility, infrastructure and access to a wider supply chain network. It’s not a passive listing. IFSA brings together manufacturers, suppliers and specialists in an active, professional community where businesses can collaborate, share expertise and strengthen industry relationships.

At a time when the sector lacks a dedicated global voice, IFSA provides a cohesive platform offering visibility, connection and practical support to help businesses grow and stay at the forefront of industry developments.

For IWMA members, this represents a natural extension into an adjacent sector, creating additional opportunities to expand your reach, build relationships and engage with a broader part of the supply chain. As part of the launch, there is also an opportunity to join IFSA as a founding member, helping shape the direction of the association from the outset.

Exclusive offer for IWMA members

To support the launch, IWMA members are invited to join IFSA as founding members, with:

• Free membership for the remainder of 2026
• A reduced annual rate of £250 for 2027
As a founding member, you will be part of shaping the early direction of the association, building key relationships from the outset and positioning your business at the centre of a new and growing international community.
This provides a straightforward way to explore the sector, establish early connections and play an active role in the development of IFSA from the beginning.

Key member benefits:

• Stronger visibility – showcase your business through an open online member directory, PR opportunities and editorial features on the IFSA website, raising your profile across the industry
