Trailblazers on Show
There are 18 products on this year’s Innovation Trail, which has an added extra dimension for 2018.
From 42 eligible entries, the judging panel of independent hirers have selected 18 products for the Innovation Trail that visitors can follow at the Show - just look out for the eye-catching floor tiles beside each supplier’s stand. Products must have been launched since the 2017 Show and, as well as demonstrating genuine innovation, were assessed according to how they addressed key industry issues and their worthiness of inclusion in hirers’ fleets.
Traversing the exhibition aisle by aisle makes it easy to follow the Trail. Start at the bottom left corner of Hall 1 and facing you will be Trime UK on Stand A22. The company’s new X-Eco-Battery mobile lighting tower runs solely on battery power, giving up to 36 hours’ eco-friendly operation with energy-saving LED lamps. Walking a short distance takes you to JCB on Stand A45, promoting the 7T-1 Hi-Viz front-tip site dumper. For enhanced Health & Safety, it is designed to significantly improve front visibility and the operator can view a 1.4m-high person or object at a 1m distance when laden.
Heading further along you will reach Stand A60 where Legend Brands will show the Cube dehumidifier, a compact, stackable unit that can go through a loft hatch, yet is claimed to offer the same performance of a standard machine, Available in 110V or 230V, it has an integral pump.
On the next aisle you will discover Hilti (Gt. Britain) on Stand B60 with two Innovation Trail products. The first is the DD-WMS 100 water kit, while the second is the TE 2000 breaker weighing 14.5kg. Find out more in our Exhibitor Profile on page 51. Close by on Stand B50, Morris Site Machinery will display its Halo lamp head for the SMC TL90 lighting tower. Made from the same tough plastic used for road safety cones, it provides anti-glare illumination from its LED lamps.
Almost opposite you will see MCS on Stand C70. Its new telematics hub for its MCS-rm software is designed to enable hirers to monitor and co-ordinate data about their plant and equipment easily from many different providers and manufacturers. Heading towards the right hand side of Hall 1 will bring you to Avant Tecno (UK) on Stand C100, whose battery-powered e6 loader is on the Trail. Designed for indoor areas and location where noise and emissions must be minimised, it will be shown with a remote control backhoe attachment, designated the 260, aimed at users in areas with limited space and requiring exact digging performance.
Further along on Stand C125, Point of Rental Software will promote its Inspection App, designed to allow managers to handle inspection, maintenance and servicing processes using a mobile device, as well as providing checklists for technicians and the ability to store condition photos and other data. On the left hand side of Hall 1 is Stand C15 where you can assess Dantherm Group’s Aerial Aercube modular drying system for energy-efficient water damage restoration. It utilises simple-to-use electronic controls that are separate from the main machine and components are stackable to save space.
Following the Trail back down the adjacent aisle brings you to Jaama (Stand D40). The MyVehicle app for its Key2 asset management software enables users to process and update data such as maintenance records and test certificates, and to trigger regular equipment checks. Close by on Stand D70, BGG (UK)’s display will include the battery-powered EasyLight, which is included in our Exhibitor Profile starting on page 41. Virtually opposite you will see an Innovation Trail floor tile by Arcotherm (Stand E60). Its Road Tow Heaters are designed as self-contained heating solutions for rapid deployment and incorporate a generator, bunded fuel tank and lights.
