Strong bookings for Plantworx event

More than 60 exhibitors have already signed up for the Construction Equipment Association’s (CEA) Plantworx 2013 show in the UK.

JCB, New Holland, Volvo CE and Terex, who will be exhibiting and demonstrating in the Dig Zone, are among the leading construction equipment firms attending the inaugural event at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire, England, being held between 14th and 16th May, 2013.

Other key companies including Merlo, Manitou and Bomag have booked stand space in the No Dig Zone, and specialist suppliers including Ashtree Glass, Spring Masters and Webtec have taken their place in the undercover pavilion.

Construction Minister Mark Prisk has given the show his full support. Speaking recently, he said: “I was very pleased when the Construction Equipment Association announced its plans for Plantworx. One year on from that launch I am encouraged to learn of the progress that has been made and that so many key companies are committed to being involved.

"The UK's construction equipment industry remains a key element of this country's manufacturing base and is one of our key export sectors with some 75% of UK production going overseas.

Plantworx can provide a showcase for our companies to demonstrate their world class products and services".
