Electra Mining Africa 2026 to feature 1,000 exhibitors

Mining, manufacturing and industrial companies are facing growing pressure to increase productivity, enhance safety, lower operating costs and meet rising sustainability expectations

At the same time, rapid developments in automation, artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, predictive maintenance and digital manufacturing are reshaping how industrial operations are managed.

For industry professionals seeking to discover the latest industrial technologies and solutions, Electra Mining Africa will once again bring together technology providers, equipment manufacturers, engineering specialists and industry experts under one roof.

Reflecting the continued confidence of the industry, the 2026 exhibition has expanded its footprint by 4,000m² compared with the previous edition, reaching a record 44,000m² of net exhibition space. Exhibitors will be spread across six indoor halls, alongside expanded outdoor display areas.

Taking place from 7–11 September at the Johannesburg Expo Centre in Nasrec, Electra Mining Africa will feature thousands of products, technologies and services from more than 1,000 local and international exhibitors. The event will showcase a wide range of solutions for the mining, manufacturing and industrial sectors, including large-scale mining equipment, industrial machinery, automation systems, digital technologies, power solutions, pumps and valves, welding and fabrication equipment, safety systems, personal protective equipment (PPE), tools, components and engineering services.

Visitors will have the opportunity to compare technologies, engage directly with technical specialists and company representatives, and assess solutions developed to address real-world operational challenges.

As modern industrial operations increasingly depend on integrated technologies to improve productivity, efficiency and safety, Electra Mining Africa provides a platform for professionals across mining, automation, electrical, power, manufacturing and transport to explore how these complementary capabilities can contribute to smarter industrial operations.

Beyond the exhibition floor, attendees can participate in a comprehensive programme of seminars and workshops, as well as the new SAIMechE Skills and Career Hub, which aims to strengthen collaboration between industry, education and training institutions. A range of co-located events will further support the exhibition’s focus on technical excellence, innovation and industry advancement.
