Are you ready? Plan your visit to Single-Use Event Basel

Single-use technology keeps moving fast—and so do the challenges around speed-to-market, process robustness, sustainability, and compliance. Single-Use Event Basel 2026 is designed to help you stay ahead with one concentrated day of insights, solutions, and real conversations.

On 19 March 2026, professionals from bioprocessing, biotech and (bio)pharmaceutical manufacturing come together at Congress Center Messe Basel for a focused conference and tabletop exhibition. Whether you are already working with single-use systems or actively exploring implementation, this is the place to benchmark approaches, compare suppliers side by side, and take home practical ideas you can apply in your own environment.

A packed line-up of expert speakers

Across the programme, you’ll hear from experienced speakers from both industry and academia. Expect timely perspectives on current developments, emerging approaches and common bottlenecks, supported by concrete examples and lessons learned from the field. Because the event is designed as a focused one-day format, you get a clear, curated overview of the topics that matter right now—without the distractions and logistics of a multi-day trade show. You’ll leave with fresh ideas, sharper questions to bring back to your organisation, and a better understanding of where single-use is heading next.

A compact tabletop exhibition with 60+ exhibiting companies

The exhibition floor brings together suppliers and solution providers across the single-use landscape. In a tabletop setting, conversations start quickly and comparisons are easy—ideal if you want to get a clear overview of what’s available and what best fits your process.

Single-Use Event Basel is built for networking—with a format that makes it easy to start conversations and actually have time for them. Because the event brings together professionals who work hands-on with single-use systems (and those preparing to adopt them), you’ll meet people who recognise the same technical and operational realities: scaling challenges, supplier qualification, change control, contamination risks, standardisation, sustainability targets, training and day-to-day execution on the floor.

The tabletop setting encourages direct dialogue, so you can quickly connect with peers, compare approaches, and swap lessons learned—what solved a problem, what created new ones, and what to watch out for next time. It’s also a great opportunity to expand your network across roles: engineers, production and MSAT teams, QA/QC, procurement, process development, automation and data specialists. Many visitors use the day to find future collaborators, benchmark their own decisions, and build contacts they can call on later—whether that’s for a supplier recommendation, a second opinion on a project, or a follow-up technical discussion after the event.

Make the most of your visit

Planning your day in advance pays off. Single-Use Event Basel is designed to be compact and conversation-driven—so a few simple steps can help you get maximum value:

• Define your priorities: Start with the outcome you want. Are you aiming to solve a specific bottleneck in upstream or downstream operations, compare alternative single-use components, validate a supplier choice, or explore smarter monitoring and data approaches? If you can describe your “one thing to improve” in a single sentence, it becomes much easier to spot the right talks, booths, and people to spend time with.

• Shortlist companies to meet: With 60+ exhibitors present, a small plan goes a long way. Identify a handful of must-visit suppliers and solution providers—then group them by topic (e.g., bags and assemblies, mixing, filtration, connectors, sensors, automation, validation/support services). Even if you only schedule a few targeted conversations, you’ll cover more ground efficiently and avoid spending your best time deciding where to start.

• Align internally before you arrive: If you’re attending with colleagues, take 10 minutes to align on who focuses on what. Split focus areas, agree on what you need to compare, and decide what “good” looks like (pricing model, lead time, documentation, qualification packages, supply continuity, technical fit). You’ll leave with clearer answers—and fewer “we should’ve asked that” moments. But remember, some of the best takeaways come from unexpected conversations and fresh perspectives you didn’t plan for.

• Leave space for discovery: A plan shouldn’t lock your day down. Some of the best takeaways come from unexpected conversations, practical lessons learned at other companies, or a supplier you hadn’t considered. Build in breathing room between your priorities so you can follow promising leads, sit in on an extra session, or circle back when a discussion sparks new ideas.

• Bring your questions: The tabletop format is perfect for specifics—requirements, constraints, and real use cases. Bring a short list of questions that reflect your reality: volumes, materials, compatibility, extractables/leachables expectations, sensor integration, sampling needs, cleaning/turnaround targets, change control, and documentation requirements. The more concrete your context, the more useful the answers you’ll get.

Are you ready? Plan your visit to Single-Use Event Basel 2026 and make it a day that delivers concrete insights, useful contacts, and solutions you can take back to your team.
