The biennial team confirms that “FIMMA + Maderalia is growing, and more and more international companies are showing genuine interest in participating in the 2026 edition. Spain is a safe and reliable market for the main global players in the sector.”
València, 13 June 2025 – FIMMA + Maderalia continues its promotional campaign ahead of its next edition, scheduled to take place from 10 to 13 November 2026. May has been particularly intense in terms of outreach, promotion, and exhibitor recruitment, especially at the international level. In fact, a technical team led by the biennial’s director, Alejandro Roda, and joined by Santi Riera, president of the FIMMA Organising Committee and industry entrepreneur, attended Interzum and Ligna in Germany—two globally renowned trade fairs that bring together many of the sectors represented at Feria Valencia.
The outcome of this latest initiative has been highly positive. According to Alejandro Roda, “We were able to confirm the positive impression left by the last edition of FIMMA + Maderalia among major industry players who attended.” In this regard, “many of the exhibitors we spoke with told us that Maderalia is a must-attend event.”
Riera also noted, following conversations with fellow industry professionals, that “FIMMA is a growing event, with an increasingly broad range of machinery and technology on offer, which greatly satisfies our profile of professional buyer visitors.”
For the president of the machinery and technology fair, “most exhibitors highlighted the high level of investment currently taking place on the Iberian Peninsula and expressed strong interest in being present at the next edition of FIMMA + Maderalia.” In his view, “the sector is experiencing strong demand, and manufacturers must invest in advanced production systems, particularly in the automation of processes, where machinery and software go hand in hand.”
Another key takeaway from discussions with leading global firms at Interzum and Ligna is the current strength of the Spanish market, which is emerging as “a true benchmark in Europe.” In today’s complex geopolitical climate, Spain is offering “stability, security, and positive growth prospects,” says Roda. He also highlights the value of the increasing presence of professionals not only from the EU and the Iberian Peninsula but also from North Africa, Central America, and South America, which is seen very positively by current and potential exhibitors alike.
In parallel, the FIMMA + Maderalia technical team held several meetings and made valuable contacts with key international companies—many of which are regular participants in the Feria Valencia event — and have renewed their commitment to FIMMA + Maderalia 2026. Additionally, the team has confirmed the “genuine and tangible” interest of globally operating leading firms, with negotiations underway to secure their participation.
Following the successful promotional efforts at Maderalia and participation in events such as the Speed Networking Meeting Club Madera 2025 and the AEIM General Assembly, FIMMA + Maderalia will continue its roadmap. The next stop will be the upcoming edition of Feria Hábitat València, from 29 September to 2 October, where FIMMA + Maderalia will have an information stand in the new ‘Contract 360 by Maderalia’ area.
The 2025 calendar will close with promotional actions at events in Pordenone (Italy), Istanbul (Turkey), and Barcelona. Looking ahead to next year and the November celebration of FIMMA + Maderalia at Feria Valencia, the biennial will ramp up its promotional efforts with direct actions in Lyon (France), Nuremberg (Germany), Milan (Italy), and Porto (Portugal), as well as a major launch event for the upcoming edition to be held during the key gathering scheduled for Feria Hábitat València 2026..
