EVENT PREVIEW
CHINA SHOW SET FOR SUCCESS

Growing infrastructure and mining

activities have led to a noticeable increase in demand and an improved order situation in the Chinese construction machinery segment. The sector had been in a recession for five years. The Chinese construction

machinery segment has been rapidly recovering. Maritta Lepp, project manager of bauma China, is confident: “Similar to the upswing in the Chinese economy, we are seeing positive signs for the upcoming bauma China 2018.” Among other factors, the Chinese government has played a role in the industry’s upturn by promoting the public-private partnership model (PPP model).

Stefan Rummel, managing director of Messe München. The trade show had already attracted 2,200 exhibitors – 300 companies more than in the equivalent period in 2016. “A result that is mainly due to the strong partnership between the companies, the associations and Messe München in China,” added Rummel. Messe München is pleased about
the return of a giant in the sector: Caterpillar, leading manufacturer of construction equipment, will be present this year for the first time since its last attendance in 2012. Well-known names such as Bauer, Liebherr, Volvo and Wirtgen have also signed up. l
