Bauma China reaches record size

News this week: Messe München International (MMI), organiser of bauma China, anticipates a record-size show this year with more than 2,600 exhibitors from 39 countries expected to attend – close to a 40% increase over its previous edition. Billed as the “International Trade Fair for Construction Machinery, Building Material Machines, Construction Vehicles and Equipment”, bauma China will run from 27^th to 30^th November 2012 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).

According to MMI, there will be eight national pavilions including Austria, Germany, Finland, Great Britain, Italy, Korea, Spain and the U.S., as well as a joint stand of exhibitors from Incheon city. MMI is expecting to use all of SNIEC’s 200,000 m² indoor exhibition space.

Eugen Egetenmeir, managing director of MMI, said, “This statistic shows how important the Asian market still is for the global building machinery industry. We are very pleased to report that bauma China will be taking up all the available capacity at the SNIEC, even though we were not able to meet every request for more booth space.”
