Service station and carwash operations combine payment systems, logistics and equipment in a short commercial cycle. UNITI expo 2026 positions those technical strands in a trade floor format that targets suppliers and operators.
UNITI expo 2026 takes place from May 19 to 21 in Stuttgart at Messe Stuttgart. This note highlights the sectors on display and gives concrete tips to prepare B2B outreach if you sell carwash equipment, workshop supplies or payment and logistics systems.
What UNITI expo 2026 brings to Messe Stuttgart
The official program lists thematic areas that structure the exhibition. Key areas include payment and logistics technology, carwash and carcare, mineral oil companies and charge point operators, shop and convenience, plus the Future Mobility Lounge focused on electric mobility and integrated charging services.
Messe Stuttgart will host the halls and forums where these topics are presented. Use the listed areas to plan booth visits and to allocate priorities by product line.
Sectors and exhibitor profiles
Exhibitors range from carwash machinery manufacturers and workshop equipment suppliers to payment system vendors and fuel or charging operators. Retail and convenience store solution providers are also present, reflecting the commercial side of the station business.
For commercial teams this means prioritizing three contact types. First, equipment manufacturers for carwash and workshop. Second, vendors of payment terminals and telemetry. Third, operators and retail managers who decide on shop layouts and services.
Program areas and forums to target
The event program includes several forums cited in the official information. Notable among them are the UNITI expo Forum, Carwash Forum, International Forum and Future Mobility Forum. These sessions concentrate technical and procurement discussions and are useful to identify active projects and decision makers.
If you aim to position a technical solution focus on sessions in the Carwash Forum and Future Mobility Forum to connect with technical managers and those planning infrastructure changes.
How to prepare B2B prospecting
Segment exhibitors and visitors by decision type and plan short, measurable meetings. Prepare a concise technical pitch that highlights operational benefits and implementation timelines. Define three metrics to discuss in the first meeting such as installation window, estimated total cost and responsible stakeholders.
Mix live demos at the booth with 20 minute follow ups to advance pilots. Identify local distributors and operators to speed up trials in Germany and reduce deployment friction.
Practical information for visitors
The fair is held at Messe Stuttgart. Review the hall plan and exhibitor list on the official site to map stands and forum locations. Organize days by theme to minimize movements across halls.
