PLANTWORX at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground in Leicestershire, southern England, from June 6-8
The 3rd biennial 3579 PLANTWORX Construction Machinery exhibition in the UK is on target to exceed the number of exhibitors at the last show in 2015.

With five months to go before opening, 278 exhibitors have signed up, making 86% of exhibition spaces sold, according to the organisers. Of the 278 exhibitors, 74 are new to the event which is hosted the CEA - the UK’s 3418 Construction Equipment Association.

The biennial event will take place at its established home at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground in Leicestershire, southern England, from June 6-8. The show will be 20% larger than the 2015 show, with 140,000m² of space.

New at PLANTWORX 2017 is The Hub event arena at the heart of the show where visitors can take a break from the hustle and bustle of the show. The Hub will celebrate innovation and new technology. Activities from The Hub and the main-showground will be broadcast onto outdoor screens with live video roaming.

All PLANTWORX Innovation Award Winners will be invited to exhibit their winning product in this area and take part in the People’s Choice Award where visitors vote for their favourite product, machine and service.
There will be a focus on Inbuilt Technology where visitors can ‘walk around’ machines which are fitted with the latest in technology for a busy construction site to improve profit margins and help complete projects safely, on time and on budget.

And safety, as well as security, will form part of The Hub which will include exhibits and demonstrations from the CESAR Equipment & Registration Scheme for the Construction & Agricultural Industries and CITS (Combined Industries Theft Solutions).
 
Additional features will include environmental solutions, machine simulators, autonomous machines and operation, drone demonstrations and much more.  A covered seating area in the centre of the arena and other facilities will include a wifi hotspot.

On the final day of the show The Hub will host the Primary Engineer and Secondary Engineer Celebration where 26 local schools will showcase their STEM engineering projects.
