VDMA | BAUMA 2025
WELCOME TO THE HEART OF OUR INDUSTRY
BAUMA 2025:
Christoph Danner, Deputy Managing Director, VDMA Mining & Minerals, discusses the focus there is to be on focus on decarbonisation, automation, and digitalisation at the Bauma equipment show, to be held in Munich, in April. VDMA is the German trade association for construction equipment and plant engineering
As we look forward to Bauma 2025, the world’s leading trade fair for construction machinery, building material machines, mining machines, construction vehicles, and construction equipment, it is essential to reflect on the pivotal role this event plays in shaping the future of the mining and tunneling industries. With a focus on decarbonisation, automation, and
digitalisation, Bauma serves as a vital platform for innovation, collaboration, and the exchange of ideas that will drive our industries forward in an increasingly complex and environmentally conscious world.
Decarbonisation The mining industry is at a crossroads, facing the urgent need to reduce its carbon footprint in response to global climate change. Decarbonisation is not merely a trend; it is a necessity for the sustainability of our planet and the future of our industries. At Bauma 2025, we will witness groundbreaking
technologies and solutions that aim to minimise emissions and enhance energy efficiency. Exhibitors will showcase advancements in electric and hybrid machinery, alternative fuels, and carbon capture technologies. These innovations are crucial for the mining sector, which has historically been associated with high energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The tunnelling industry, too, is not exempt from this

responsibility. As we dig deeper into the earth, we must ensure that our methods and machinery align with the global push for sustainability.
