The industry’s biggest players will soon descend on Munich to be part of bauma 2025. Aggregates Business looks at some of the key offerings at the major trade show.
One of the world’s largest industry trade shows is set to return to Munich in April, with bauma 2025 focusing on digitalisation and sustainability.
The show will see a mix of well-known original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and emerging companies come together at the Munich Exhibition Centre from April 7–13. The show will welcome at least 150 companies for the first time alongside returning stalwarts such as Volvo, Wirtgen, McLanahan, and more.
The show will address some of the biggest issues facing today’s construction equipment and building materials industries, including climate neutrality, alternative drive concepts, networked construction, sustainable construction, and mining challenges.
Companies will also launch new products and services during the week-long event.
A significant focus of these new product launches is expected to be on sustainable construction, an emerging sector that contains 3D printing, serial construction, electric drives, and low-emission asphalt mixing.
The German Engineering Federation (VDMA) consultant for mining and minerals, construction equipment and plant engineering, Stephan Oehme, said these segments have demonstrated much potential.
“Sustainable construction is by no means limited to resource awareness, recycling of the materials used, and a smaller carbon footprint,” he said. “The idea of recycling is now deeply etched in the DNA of the construction industry, demonstrated not least by the many extremely practical solutions.”
Here’s a look at some of the big industry players who will be at the show.
McLanahan
McLanahan returns as a bauma exhibitor, with the OEM exhibiting in hall C2, stall 439. Regional sales manager for Europe, James McShane, will be on hand to discuss potential solutions with new and existing clients.
