LIFTEX is the only dedicated exhibition for the lift, escalator and access industry to be held in the uK, and it takes place only once every three years.

Now in its 34th year, LIFTEX is organised by the Lift and Escalator Industry Association (LEIA). The last event smashed all records. This year’s show looks set to continue the trend, as Event Director Oliver Greening explains, “Despite the past few years of uncertainty, sales for the event have flown and we officially sold out of stand space back in the summer. We had to extend the floorplan to accommodate demand, which is an encouraging sign that the industry is ready to get together again.”

This year’s show features 110 UK and international exhibitors showcasing the latest products and services, including several joining LIFTEX for the fi rst time, such as Otis, Schindler and TKE. International representation comes from 16 countries including Canada, Croatia, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA.

Visitors will find a breadth of industry representation including contractors, service companies, component suppliers and organisations from support services.
