Handling, storing and moving bulk solids involves operational and safety challenges that evolve rapidly. Symas 2026 brings solutions for processing, transport and maintenance to EXPO Kraków in a combined format focused on industrial practice.
Practical dates and venue
Symas 2026 runs on 14 and 15 October 2026 at EXPO Kraków. The event pairs the international fair for bulk materials processing and transport with the maintenance fair focused on production planning and optimization.
Exhibition focus and technologies on show
Exhibitors present equipment and technologies for processing, transshipment, transport, storage, sorting, filtering, separation, grinding and packing of bulk and mass materials. MAINTENANCE showcases tools and methods aimed at preventing unplanned downtime and improving plant efficiency. Together they provide a broad technical offering for production and logistics teams.
Program highlights and special zones
The agenda includes a conference titled Safety 360 degrees in industry covering machine safety, process safety, fire and explosion protection and industrial cybersecurity. A dedicated industrial safety zone enables suppliers to display B2B safety solutions. In 2025 that zone gathered about 20 firms. The event belongs to the SOLIDS European Series, a Europe-wide sequence of fairs for bulk materials and powders.
Who attends and who exhibits
Visitors typically include production managers, maintenance engineers, logistics specialists and process equipment manufacturers. The mix of bulk handling and maintenance suppliers makes the fair relevant for those responsible for plant upgrades and safety investments.
B2B prospecting checklist for Symas 2026
- Set measurable targets per product and per meeting slot to keep conversations focused.
- Map priority exhibitors and attendees using the online exhibitor list and the post-event report to arrange meetings in advance.
- Prepare live demos and technical case studies. Practical demonstrations accelerate technical buy cycles in bulk handling.
- Schedule meetings with maintenance and production decision makers during the MAINTENANCE program and the safety conference to align solutions with plant needs.
Key facts from the event record
