The new site for Plantworx offers greater space for machine demonstrations than the 2017 event

The organisers of the 3579 Plantworx 2019 construction machinery exhibition are bullish, having now sold 75% of the show space available. The 2019 event is taking place at its new East of England Arena home in Peterborough. This has 20% more exhibition space than the 2017 event.

The digging demonstration areas are 97% sold out – with only two stands remaining. Angela Spink, Plantworx sales manager said, “We are delighted with the response we have had from companies wanting to book their stand space at the show.”

Spink added, “We are particularly pleased to announce that 22% of the exhibitors (67) are brand new to the event and will be making their show debut in June next year. A sure sign confidence is high in our sector.”

The 2019 event (11 – 13 June East of England Arena, Peterborough) has the benefit of an Indoor purpose-built Arena which is now filling up and is 65% sold out. The State-of-the-Art Construction Machinery Simulation Zone, in association with Plantforce Plant Hire, will also be in this area. Spink reported this has helped with a surge in bookings for this area, as companies recognise the significance of the new Zone and the footfall it will deliver.”

Spink added, “There are still opportunities to demo above ground, but these are selling out quickly – so exhibitors considering this area should get in touch and reserve their space.”

Network Rail has secured their stand at Railworx as has Premier Rail Service, Rosehill Rail, Taylor Construction Plant and more.  Visit www.railworx.co.uk for further details.

Plantworx would like to welcome the following exhibitors who have signed on the dotted line and booked their stands this week.  Eight new exhibitors bookings this week – which takes the exhibitor total up to 272 exhibitors and of those 67 (22%) are NEW.  A full exhibitor list and site plans can be found on the Plantworx website: www.plantworx.co.uk
