A DRIVING FORCE OF INNOVATION AT AUTOMECHANIKA 2025.

From the 3rd to 5th June 2025, the Birmingham NEC opened the doors of halls 18, 19 and 20 and welcomed visitors to Automechanika 2025.

This major automotive event brought together 550+ leading brands from 25+ countries and 15,000 senior UK based visitors from across the automotive industry, for three days of networking, learning and invaluable face-to-face time to do serious business.

Loughborough-based Flotec (a trusted and leading supplier of hydraulic, pneumatic and pipeline products), collaborated with Italian manufacturer, Flexbimec, in a joint exhibition venture, residing on stand B110 of hall 20 for the duration of the three days.

As the UK distributor of Flexbimec’s innovative range of hose reel products and lubrication equipment, Flotec identified automotive as a potentially lucrative market to penetrate and was keen for both parties to have a presence at Automechanika.

Being 100% manufactured in Italy means zero outsourcing to the Far East, making the Flexbimec product range robust, reliable, long lasting and fit-for-purpose, offering long term cost savings in use.

Flexbimec products are ideal for garages and automotive workshops.

On display was a mobile, combined waste oil drainer and suction unit, mobile pneumatic oil dispensing kit and two Andromeda hose reels from the Universe range, featuring a patent pending, NOVATG® branded automatic hose guide.

Visitors to the stand also received a demonstration of the Flexbimec RF Wireless Fluid Management System, making use of state-of-the-art IoT (Internet of Things) technology.

Flotec’s Business Development Representative for the Flexbimec brand, Dan Chatfield, says of the show, “Automechanika was a roaring success, and it was fantastic having our Italian partners join us for the event.

The show was incredibly busy and presented the perfect opportunity to introduce both brands to the automotive industry and demonstrate the product range, features and their benefits.”
