The Collision Repair Expo’s major sponsor, SAPE Group, is building on the success of the 2019 show by expanding its presence in 2022. SAPE will have a floor area spanning 270 square metres, making it one of the event’s biggest displays.
SAPE’s equipment stand AD2, located near the Expo entrance, will display the latest collision repair technology, products and equipment from international brands such as GYS, Spanesi, Celette, Jollift, Autorobot, Wielander+Schill, Scangrip, IRT, and Drester.
A highlight of the stand will be SAPE’s industry bar and cafe, offering a place to stop and relax with industry friends.
Stand AF2 will run parallel to SAPE’s equipment stand, showcasing new and innovative products including abrasives, tapes, polishes, compounds, colour match lights, and a comprehensive range of specialised coatings from brands such as Juice Polishes, CAM, MACROC, Sika, Carsystem, POR-15, Scangrip, and ROAR.
SAPE said international guests from around the globe will be at its stands to discuss the latest products and innovations, offering an opportunity to learn more about cutting-edge technology from some of the best minds in the industry.
“The Collision Repair Expo is a great flagship event for our industry,” said Paul McMartin, SAPE Group Director. “The SAPE Group is delighted to be the major sponsor of this prestigious event as it provides us with an opportunity to not only showcase our equipment and consumables range, but to catch up with everyone, share stories and have a laugh, which is especially important given the events of the last few years. This year our stand will be extra special,” McMartin said.
“Not only will it be our biggest display ever, but there’s a functioning bar and cafe, which provides us with a great opportunity to catch up with old mates and meet some new [ones].”
The Collision Repair Expo will be held concurrently with the 2022 Australian Auto Aftermarket (AAA) Expo on 7 to 9 April at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.
