SMP Europe to make debut Automechanika Birmingham exhibition at 2023 show

Date: Tuesday 23 May 2023

SMP Europe has announced it will be exhibiting its leading engine management and ignition product portfolio, as well as their industry leading engineering and manufacturing expertise for the first time at Automechanika Birmingham at the show’s 2023 edition, held at the NEC from 6 – 8 June.

Visitors to Automechanika Birmingham will be able to get hands on with various SMP Europe product lines, including its new manufactured EGR Valves, Air Mass Meters and new NOx Sensor ranges. More information will be available regarding its Intermotor, Lemark and Lucas brands, and visitors can learn more from the engineering team about how SMP Europe’s high-end products are designed and manufactured at its HQ in Nottingham.

Martin Turner, marketing director at SMP Europe, said:

“We’re pleased to be joining the roster at Automechanika Birmingham for the first time and demonstrating our engineering and manufacturing processes and expertise, across prototyping, testing and distribution, to the wider UK automotive aftermarket industry.”

The company has had a busy start to 2023 with tours of its factory and new garage facility for customers and press, within its Nottingham-based UK Centre of Engineering.

SMP Europe’s garage facility has the capability of stripping electric vehicles (EV) for research and development of new applications, along with offering technical training on EVs.

This investment in SMP Europe’s technical and engineering resource will enable the brand to continue its work as a trusted authority on engine management, ignition, and emission products.

SMP Europe’s engineering team has grown in recent years, and additional investment has also seen the implementation of 3D printing machines to assist in rapid product prototyping, fitment testing and in house custom tooling.

“We are showcasing a number of our manufactured ranges at Automechanika Birmingham on stand D98 in Hall 20, which have been produced by our engineering team at the SMP Europe HQ, showing off our validation process along with our 3D printing and milling capabilities,” Turner adds.

SMP Europe’s leading product ranges include ignition leads and coils, air mass meters, knock sensors, temperature sensors, EGR valves, exhaust gas temperature sensors and fuel vapour values, fuel injectors and pumps, plus many more, listed on its website: https://www.smpeurope.com/products/.
