- Europe - Corporate - Organisation
After a highly successful 2025 (see our 2025 recap video), NTN Europe is approaching 2026 with ambition. The year 2026 will be driven by structural projects, major investments and key events, illustrating NTN Europe's desire to combine industrial performance, continuous innovation and sustainable responsibility.
Through this dynamic, NTN Europe is pursuing its ambitions: to accelerate the transformation of mobility and industries by creating sustainable value for its customers, partners and the European ecosystem.
Launch of MySNR CertifiedGarage
In February, NTN Europe will launch a unique digital platform dedicated to independent garages in France. It is open to all garages, both independent and affiliated. Its aim is to simplify their daily lives and save them time. This platform brings together seven key services in a single space, enabling garages to save precious time and refocus on their core business: car repairs. This new service is fully in line with the group's strategy to enrich its offering and strengthen its support for its repairer customers beyond products. The service will initially be available in France and then gradually extended to other European countries.
The Elevation investment plan for the aerospace business
The year 2026 will be marked by a€30 million strategic investment plandesigned to support the strong growth of the aerospace bearings market. This plan aims to modernise and expand industrial facilities in order to meet rapidly accelerating demand. The objective is to achieve a 40% increase in aerospace activity by 2030. This decision demonstrates the group's strong commitment to European industrial sovereignty.
Inauguration of NTN Europe's new headquarters
The year will mark an important milestone for the head office teams with the opening of NTN Europe's new headquarters. This innovative, low-carbon building will house all support functions and part of the R&D teams. This represents a profound transformation in working methods, embodying the group's desire to combine performance, innovation and environmental responsibility, while reaffirming its industrial excellence. The move is scheduled for mid-2026.
Hillhead Exhibition - 23 to 25 June 2026 (United Kingdom)
NTN Europe will participate in the Hillhead trade show, a must-attend event for the mining, quarrying and construction sectors in the United Kingdom. Held outdoors in the heart of a quarry, this trade show is the largest event of its kind in the country and brings together the major international players in the market. This major event will be an opportunity for NTN Europe to showcase a flagship product designed for demanding environments, thereby confirming its position in this strategic market.
Another year towards carbon neutrality
In 2026, NTN Europe will actively pursue the implementation of its plan towards carbon neutrality, with a particular focus on Scopes 1 and 2. This initiative will be supported by an £8 million investment plan rolled out over the period 2024-2030, aimed at transforming industrial processes in a sustainable manner, optimising the energy performance of sites and significantly reducing the group's CO₂ emissions. Among the actions planned for 2026 are the installation of photovoltaic panels at the Sibiu industrial site in Romania, complemented by the rollout of energy efficiency and infrastructure modernisation projects, directly aligned with the group's environmental roadmap.
Automechanika trade fair - 8 to 12 September in Frankfurt (Germany)
Another highlight of the year is Automechanika Frankfurt, the European trade fair for automotive spare parts. Held every two years, this leading event brings together all the key players in the sector. It is an unmissable event for NTN Europe, both for innovation and for discussions with its partners and customers.
2026 promises to be a busy year for NTN Europe, driven by an ambitious and sustainable industrial transformation. NTN Europe is confirming its trajectory towards a more innovative, responsible and efficient future and its role as a leading industrial player in Europe.
