Leitat will participate in Lubricant Expo Europe 2026, the leading European event for the lubricants and lubrication technologies sector, taking place from 15 to 17 September at Messe Düsseldorf (Germany), at Stand 789, Hall 10.
This year, Leitat will strengthen its presence at a meeting point that brings together lubricant manufacturers, technology developers, suppliers, equipment manufacturers and professionals from different industrial sectors to explore new opportunities for innovation in lubrication.
Technological solutions for the lubricants industry
Lubrication plays a key role in improving the performance, durability and efficiency of industrial components and systems. In this context, Leitat works with companies on the development and validation of lubrication solutions adapted to different applications and operating conditions.
During Lubricant Expo Europe, visitors will be able to discover Leitat’s capabilities in applied R&D, materials characterisation, testing and validation of lubrication and tribology solutions, as well as its work on developing more sustainable, high-value solutions.
These capabilities make it possible to address challenges related to the behaviour of materials and lubricants under real operating conditions, helping to optimise product performance and accelerate development and validation before industrial application.
Session moderation
During Lubricant Expo Europe 2026, Laura Batlle, Principal Researcher in Advanced Industrial Fluids at Leitat, will moderate two sessions from the official programme focused on emerging challenges and opportunities for the lubricants sector:
“Power Generation and Stationary Gas Engines: Lubricant Requirements in a Changing Energy Landscape”
🗓️ September 16
🕒 14:35 – 14:55 h
📍 Track 1
The session will explore how lubrication requirements are evolving in power generation applications, including stationary gas engines and new power supply architectures driven by the growth of data centres.
“From Factory Floor to Human Spaces: Tribological Challenges in Lubricating Humanoid Robots”
🗓️ September 16
🕒 14:55 – 15:15 h
📍 Track 1
The session will address the tribological and lubrication challenges associated with the next generation of humanoid robots, as well as the implications these systems may have for lubricant development and qualification.
Leitat, a technology partner for innovation in lubrication
Leitat’s participation in Lubricant Expo Europe 2026 will provide an opportunity to connect with companies and stakeholders across the value chain and share its expertise in applied research and technological development.
Visitors can meet Leitat at Hall 10 | Stand 789 and discover first-hand how its R&D, testing and validation capabilities can help companies address new challenges in lubrication, tribology and advanced materials.
Meet our team at the stand to discover how applied R&D, testing and validation can help bring innovative lubrication technologies closer to industrial application.
Schedule a meeting with our team in advance.
We look forward to seeing you from 15 to 17 September at Messe Düsseldorf!
