INTERMAT 2024 looks to showcase the construction industry and equipment manufacturers in the race to net zero emissions. Among the highlights of the 2024 show, the events taking place in the INTERMAT Demo zone will focus on low carbon and safety and will kick off every 10 minutes throughout the four days of the exhibition.
Showcasing the innovation of construction equipment and machinery
INTERMAT DEMO will offer manufacturers the chance to show off equipment and machinery in real-life operating conditions.
The Demo Zone will host the current generation of equipment, notably fitted with hybrid or electric engines, and will offer a chance to test new powertrains and see the construction sites of the future.
Nearly 200 demonstrations
Through a programme of nearly 200 demonstrations of worksite machinery, construction professionals will be able to admire the know-how of manufacturers and the latest developments in low-carbon and digitalized equipment. Visitors will also be able to see machines with increased safety and higher productivity and energy efficiency.
The Demo Zone will also have a food and drink area with a varied selection of food trucks.
The INTERMAT Demo Zone will be divided into two zones: a gravel zone and a sand zone. Each zone will see a demonstration every ten minutes from 9.30 am to 5.30 pm.
