Phoenix Contact at Hannover Messe: It’s all about comprehensive, networked energy systems

20 April 2026

At this year’s trade fair, Phoenix Contact is focusing on four topics: Power reliability, safe automation, efficient control cabinet building and integrated connection technology. The family-run company will be exhibiting its products and solutions for the first time in Automation Hall 27, Booth G26, in line with the new Hannover Messe exhibition concept.

Industrial systems must run smoothly, be continuously monitored and offer maximum efficiency: It is therefore no surprise that the topic of power reliability is gaining momentum. Phoenix Contact will present solutions that intelligently combine supply, protection and monitoring — from powerful 24 V technology and robust IP67 supply solutions to innovative power electronics and comprehensive surge protection.

Open, modular and reliably protected automation systems for modern production environments are another topic showcased at the booth. Phoenix Contact will show how scalable architectures can be combined with security concepts and AI-powered functions. This results in efficient, robust processes that reduce downtime and increase productivity.

Due to increasing electrification, there is growing demand for control cabinets — and for fast, economical processes in control cabinet building. Phoenix Contact will show how companies can benefit from digitalization, process automation and end-to-end workflows. The scalable product portfolio and comprehensive consulting services enable shorter production times, high process reliability and scalable solutions.

The fourth focus topic at the booth is integrated connection technology for smart applications: Connection technology, terminal blocks and field cabling ensure the reliable transmission of signals, data and power. Technologies such as single pair Ethernet enable flexible machine concepts and modern industrial communication. Space-saving, tool-free systems boost efficiency, sustainability and value creation.
