Power and digital technology

Power generation and energy storage will feature through Italian generator manufacturer Energy Generating Sets, hybrid power and battery storage specialist Foxtheon Energy, and UK battery technology and power systems company Lemon Energy.

Digital systems and fleet management are another area of growth among the new exhibitors. Capja provides digital information capture and plant hire management tools, while Matrix iQ specialises in vehicle and asset tracking. Powered by Rental offers hire management software, Simpala provides Salesforce-based systems for plant hire businesses, SmartEquip focuses on parts procurement and equipment maintenance information, and Trackunit UK supplies construction equipment telematics and fleet management technology.

The professional services line-up includes Badger, a marketing specialist for construction, engineering and manufacturing, and One Stop Networks, which provides IT, connectivity and cybersecurity services.

Chris Moore, Publishing and Event Director of the Executive Hire Show, said: “It's great to see so many companies joining us for the first time, particularly as we celebrate 20 years of the Executive Hire Show.

“We have some very well-known machinery manufacturers coming on board, alongside smaller specialist businesses offering products and services that are directly relevant to the hire industry. What's particularly encouraging is the variety. From machines and attachments to battery power, telematics, software and professional services, there is a real mix of businesses joining us. For visitors, it means more opportunities to meet new suppliers, see what's available and have conversations that could lead to new business. That's what the Executive Hire Show has always been about.”

The 2027 event will also introduce a free two-day conference programme, alongside new networking opportunities and a greater focus on attracting direct purchasers from construction, housebuilding and facilities management.

The Executive Hire Show will take place at the CBS Arena, Coventry, on 10–11 February 2027.
