Plantworx 2015 sales ‘going great guns’

The 7345 Plantworx Construction Machinery exhibition hosted by the CEA (7474 Construction Equipment Association) returns in 2015 to its new location at Bruntingthorpe Aerodrome, County Leicestershire, England.

Following the Grand Stand Draw in December 2013 where 17 leading construction equipment brands staked their claim on the Anchor stands (largest available), which will be strategically placed around the showground, sales have been going great guns.

Overall the show (from 2–4 June, 2015) is now over 38% sold in the main area (not including the Site Clearance Zone and Pavilion) and over 35% sold on static and 55% on demo space.

Anchor stand exhibitors included Altrad Belle Group, Ammann, Bomag, 394 Case Construction, Cautrac, 411 Doosan, 3006 Finning, 429 Hyundai Heavy Industires Europe, 633 JCB, 7491 Kubota, 439 Liebherr, Marubeni 436 Komatsu, 7492 Merlo, 7493 Takeuchi, 7494 Thwaites , 473 Volvo and 7497 Wacker Neuson.  

Hyundai Heavy Industries Europe was one of the OEMs to commit to the show and took part in the lottery for the Anchor Stands.

“The 2013 Plantworx show was brilliant for us both in real business and also in terms of reinforcing our growing status in the UK Market.  Getting in front of potential customers and showing just what our machines can do really works for us, which is why we did not hesitate in committing to Plantworx 2015,” says sales director Rick Still.

The 2015 show will span 135,000m² and will use Bruntingthorpe’s Indy Circuit, and the venue can more than accommodate the 2015 event based on 2013’s footfall and size, and also allows plenty of room for growth in the future.

The layout of the site has been designed that all exhibitors will be in a single area, with parking on hard standing either side of the show.
