Roasttrip at World of Coffee Dubai 2026: Showcasing Specialty Coffee Innovation
In January 2026, Roasttrip joined the global coffee community at World of Coffee Dubai 2026, held from January 18 to 20 at Dubai World Trade Centre. As one of the leading specialty coffee exhibitions in the MENA region, the event brought together roasters, baristas, café owners, coffee equipment manufacturers, distributors, and specialty coffee professionals from around the world.
For Roasttrip, this year’s exhibition was an exciting opportunity to showcase premium espresso technology and connect with the growing coffee community in Dubai and beyond.
At our booth, we proudly featured the Kees van der Westen Spiritello, the Kees van der Westen Speedster, and the Crux Boxermotor Lever Espresso Machine by Aging Lab. These machines attracted strong attention from visitors looking for high-performance espresso equipment, distinctive design, and advanced brewing control.
The Kees van der Westen Spiritello stood out as a refined espresso machine built for precision, performance, and visual impact. Its distinctive design and professional-grade engineering made it a highlight for baristas and café owners interested in elevating their espresso workflow.
The Kees van der Westen Speedster also drew interest from specialty coffee professionals who value consistency, temperature stability, and iconic craftsmanship. Known globally as one of the most recognizable high-end espresso machines, the Speedster represented the kind of quality and reliability that modern specialty cafés look for.
Another major highlight was the Crux Boxermotor Lever Espresso Machine by Aging Lab. With its unique lever espresso experience and bold mechanical character, the Crux Boxermotor gave visitors a closer look at how traditional espresso extraction can meet modern engineering and design. It became a strong conversation piece for coffee professionals interested in manual control, pressure profiling, and a more tactile approach to espresso preparation.
Throughout the event, Roasttrip engaged with café owners, roasters, baristas, and coffee entrepreneurs who were exploring new ways to improve their coffee service. From live demonstrations to one-on-one conversations, World of Coffee Dubai 2026 gave us the perfect platform to present espresso machines that combine performance, craftsmanship, and innovation.
The exhibition also reinforced Dubai’s growing influence as a specialty coffee hub. World of Coffee Dubai 2026 welcomed more than 2,100 exhibiting companies and brands from 78 countries, making it the largest and most internationally diverse edition of the event to date.
