IRE – International Rental Exhibition

The International Rental Exhibition (IRE) in Maastricht, Netherlands is a premier international trade platform dedicated to the equipment rental and construction machinery sectors, bringing together rental companies, manufacturers, suppliers, and industry professionals from across Europe and beyond. Hosted at the MECC Maastricht exhibition centre, IRE serves as a comprehensive showcase for the latest innovations, technologies and solutions that drive efficiency and growth in the rental market, supporting business development and professional networking across the built environment.

Organised by Industrial Promotions International in association with the KHL Group and supported by industry publications such as International Rental News, the International Rental Exhibition features a wide variety of products and services tailored to the rental business. Exhibits typically include compact construction equipment, power generation and low-emission machinery, rental software, smart rental technology, fleet management systems, and tools that enhance productivity and operational performance for rental companies and equipment purchasers alike.

The event is strategically co-located with APEX — the aerial platform exhibition — and often runs alongside the European Rental Association (ERA) Annual Convention and the European Rental Awards, creating an integrated industry hub where professionals can explore innovations, attend expert discussions, and build strategic partnerships. This alignment fosters valuable networking opportunities, enabling participants to connect with key decision-makers and buyers in the rental ecosystem while staying abreast of emerging trends and market developments.

Visitors benefit from an immersive experience that combines product discovery, knowledge exchange and industry recognition. IRE attracts a diverse audience including general and specialist rental companies, industrial rental firms, construction contractors, small tool rental businesses, landscaping rental services and technology providers, all looking to expand their commercial networks and source solutions that align with evolving project and sustainability goals.

Located in Maastricht — a vibrant European business destination with excellent connectivity to major airports and transport networks — the International Rental Exhibition remains a key event for professionals seeking to advance their presence, capabilities and influence in the dynamic equipment rental and construction sectors.
