The 2026 edition of EXPODETERGO INTERNATIONAL will be centered around a shared vision: transforming sustainable productivity into a tangible competitive advantage. Achieving this requires the integration of efficient technologies, low-impact detergents, and ergonomically designed processes with advanced AI and digital tools to ensure quality, safety, and end-to-end supply chain control. As smart and automated solutions become increasingly prevalent, they are not only enhancing operational performance but also pave the way for new, leaner, more responsible, and future-ready organizational models.
Enhancing efficiency and inclusivity in the workplace is increasingly emphasized through ergonomic workstations, intuitive interfaces, and innovative organizational models designed to concretely improve work quality

In industries where hygiene and sanitisation are paramount, such as healthcare, hospitality, and catering, EXPODETERGO INTERNATIONAL 2026 will demonstrate how the integration of technology, AI and sustainability delivers reliable, certified, and state-of-the-art solutions. A systemic vision, where every element interconnect in a circular dynamic, forms the core strength of the upcoming edition. EXPODETERGO INTERNATIONAL will once again present a comprehensive, integrated, and forward-looking showcase of the sector s most advanced machines and solutions, transforming the challenge of sustainable innovation into a tangible growth opportunity for the entire supply chain.

The exhibition will feature the latest market innovations, including machinery for dry- cleaning and washing machines, ironing solutions, professional detergents, 4.0 Industry management systems, automated production lines, and premium textiles such as bedding and table linens for hotels, SPAs, and restaurants. A showcase of excellence featuring exclusively new machines, many demonstrated in operation to deliver a hands-on, immersive experience, an element that has always distinguished the fair.
Embodying this spirit is the event s new visual identity: a fluid, dynamic spiral symbolizing connection, ongoing transformation, and centrality. Its three colours represent the fair s core pillars, machines, services, and products for washing and ironing, visually capturing the depth and coherence of the exhibition s comprehensive offerings.
