UMEX Mumbai

UMEX (Used Machinery Expo) is Asia's leading and only trade fair with a clear focus on the trade and procurement of used machinery. It takes place annually and alternates between two of India's most important exhibition centers: the Bombay Exhibition Centre in Mumbai and the Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. Both locations feature modern infrastructure and are strategically located to attract visitors and exhibitors from across India and international markets – a testament to the event's high national importance and broad geographical reach.

UMEX is organized by Hyve India Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of the UK-based Hyve Group PLC. As part of a globally active exhibition organizer, UMEX benefits from international expertise, professional event management, and an extensive industry network.

The trade fair is exclusively for industry professionals and serves as a specialized B2B platform for buying and selling used industrial machinery. It brings together decision-makers, machinery dealers, buyers, and industry stakeholders looking for cost-effective and immediately available solutions—an increasingly important factor given unstable supply chains and growing demands related to environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) criteria.

At the heart of the event is a wide range of machinery and equipment, including metalworking and forming machines, woodworking and packaging machines, systems for food processing, textile machinery, printing and paper processing equipment, construction machinery, and general industrial tools. This offering is complemented by specialized areas such as measuring and testing technology as well as maintenance and repair equipment.

UMEX positions itself not only as a trading platform but also as a hub for knowledge exchange and innovation. Expert talks and seminars address current topics such as robotics, automation, artificial intelligence in manufacturing, sustainable production, and digital transformation processes. Renowned industry and technology experts provide valuable insights into the future of industrial operations.

A defining feature of UMEX is its role as an international meeting point for B2B networking and global sourcing. Exhibitors and visitors alike use the event to discover new suppliers, build international business relationships, and explore financing options for purchasing used machinery.

With its clear niche focus, international orientation, and wide thematic scope, UMEX offers unique value to anyone professionally involved in acquiring, using, or trading used industrial equipment.

The UMEX will take place on 3 days from Thursday, 17. September to Saturday, 19. September 2026 in Mumbai.
