LIFTEX 2025
LIFTEXATTRACTS RECORD NUMBERS IN ITS 37TH YEAR
LIFTEX, the triennial trade show run by the Lift & Escalator Industry Association (LEIA),
attracted record attendance when it took place at London’s ExCeL from 11th – 12th June 2025, bringing together 4,400 industry professionals from more than 40 different countries.
Now in its 37th year, LIFTEX is the UK’s dedicated exhibition for the lift, escalator and access industry and welcomed visitors from as far afield as Hong Kong, the UAE, India, South Korea, Japan, China and the USA. The show also featured exhibitors from 12 different countries. Attendees ranged from lift consultants and specifiers to property owners, facilities managers, and building designers and many from the industry – all with a common goal of making vertical transportation safer, smarter and more efficient.
Speaking about its success, LIFTEX Show Director Oliver Greening commented: “The atmosphere at this year’s show was incredible. We saw engagement across the board from both visitors and exhibitors. What sets LIFTEX apart is its ability to unite the entire industry, not just to conduct business, but to share knowledge and actively shape the sector’s future. This year’s record-breaking turnout confirms how vital the show is to the market. While the show’s international participation grows, LIFTEX still retains a strong UK focus.”
“
The exhibition floor buzzed with activity across both days as over 100 companies showcased cutting-edge innovations in lift engineering, maintenance solutions, digital technology and compliance tools. Many exhibitors reported securing new international distributors
and partnership agreements, with several major deals announced on the show floor.
The event’s appeal was further demonstrated by the packed seminar theatre, where industry leaders addressed challenges and opportunities. The free-to-attend programme featured expert speakers including Nick Mellor, LEIA MD, Micky Grover-White, Head of Technical at LEIA, Rachel Smalley, Director of Inclusive Design at Jacobs, Dave Searle, Chair of MHE/4 for Lifts and Escalators and Ian McGregor, Co-Chair, LEIA QTC, who discussed critical issues affecting the industry including competency and compliance, the revision of BS 5655-11 – Code of Practice for the undertaking of modifications to existing lifts, and future-proofing buildings with evacuation lifts.
LIFTEX is more than just a trade show – it’s where the global lift industry converges on London once every three years, Greening concluded.
