EQUIP AUTO 2009 will take place from 13 to 18 October at the Paris-Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre. The exhibition has established itself as one of the landmark events for all those involved in the automotive industry worldwide, in terms of both garage and vehicle equipment. Devoted since 1975 to passenger car equipment (PCs) and then to equipment for industrial vehicles (IVs), the show is now expanding its range to include parts and repair equipment intended for all motorized wheeled vehicles.

EQUIP AUTO is now one of the key B2B events bringing together manufacturers, distributors and repairers seeking new products, services and partners. In 2009 the show will also include repair parts and equipment for all construction machinery and handling equipment, agricultural vehicles, public transport both long distance and urban, as well as a section on motorised two-wheelers.
EQUIP AUTO 2007 welcomed 2,022 exhibitors and 106,407 visitors (32 percent international) from 134 countries. There were 52 overseas pavilions from 25 countries and a high representation from the new centres in the auto industry (Brazil, China, Central and Eastern Europe, India, Russia…). The exhibition is organised by Comexposium and its shareholder partners, the Fédération Française de la Carrosserie (FFC, French bodywork association) and the Fédération des Industries des Equipements pour Véhicules (FIEV, the French vehicle equipment manufacturers' association).
