IIW Welcomes New Members

International Institute of Welding IIW Welcomes New Members

The International Institute of Welding (IIW) is an international association focused on the exchange of knowledge in the field of welding and allied technologies. IIW is a not-for-profit organization, and members are the associations representing the sectors of welding and allied processes in their countries.

Researchers, industry practitioners and educators, students and young professionals worldwide are all part of the collaborative working platform of the IIW. This unique international cooperation is achieved through annual and intermediate meetings of IIW working units and boards, technical networking, shared projects, events, publications and web-based communications. The outcomes are shared worldwide – promoting optimum use and innovation in joining technologies, international standardisation and quality through education, training, qualification and certification of individuals and companies for a safe and sustainable world.

WeldNAM – Association for Welding and Alied Processes of Namibia and A.O.I. – Arab Organization for Industrialization of Egypt are the two new members to the IIW, confirmed by the general assembly in July.
