UTECO participated in SMM 2026 in Hamburg, joining the international maritime community at one of the world’s leading exhibitions for shipbuilding, machinery and marine technology.

UTECO at SMM 2026: Technology for a Changing Maritime Industry

Following its presence at Posidonia earlier in the year, SMM provided an international platform for UTECO to continue discussions around the technologies shaping modern vessel operations, with particular emphasis on automation, monitoring, measurement and energy efficiency.

Throughout the four-day exhibition, the UTECO team met with shipowners, shipyards, partners and maritime professionals from international markets, discussing applications designed to improve operational visibility, system reliability and efficient vessel performance.

The wider agenda of SMM 2026 reflected many of the challenges currently facing the maritime sector, including energy efficiency, digitalization, artificial intelligence, security and resilient maritime operations.

UTECO was also part of the broader presence of the Greek maritime equipment industry, represented at SMM through HEMEXPO member companies across several exhibition halls. Fourteen HEMEXPO members exhibited during the 2026 edition, highlighting the capabilities of Greek marine technology companies to an international audience.

With more than five decades of experience in industrial and marine technology, UTECO continues to combine engineering expertise, sensor manufacturing and international technology partnerships to address the requirements of an increasingly connected, efficient and data-driven maritime industry.
