THE Plantworx Construction Machinery Exhibition, hosted by the Construction Equipment Association (CEA), is taking place at its brand-new home at the East of England Arena in Peterborough from 11-13 June. New for 2019 is the complementary event, Railworx, which will cast the spotlight on the boom in rail-related civil engineering.

The show will benefit from 20 per cent more exhibition space than at its previous location in Leicestershire and spans more than 140,000 square metres – that’s an area bigger than 20-premier league football pitches – so a good pair of walking boots are advised.

The event is set for a record 450 exhibitors – with some one-third making their show debut.

Rob Oliver, chief executive of the CEA said, “Plantworx will be the first UK-based opportunity to see new products from many of the major OEMs. With the advent of Stage V engine requirements – and more entrants into the electric-powered arena, Plantworx 2019 promises to be the best yet to see new machines.”

At Plantworx visitors can see machines and tools being put through their paces on one of the many demonstration areas around the show. Visitors with the correct operators’ licences and PPE are invited by many of the manufacturers to ‘have a go’ on their machines and test out the latest in earthmoving machinery in working site conditions.

Visitors to Railworx will also see live demonstrations of machinery and plant used for railway civil engineering, including piling, reinforcing, drainage, access, lifting, surveying and monitoring.

The event will also feature classic diggers, a drone zone, student activities and an area designed specifically for children, irresistibly called ‘Diggerland’!

Put the 11th, 12th, 13th June 2019 in your diary – the Plantworx team look forward to welcoming you all to East of England Arena and Events Centre, Peterborough for Plantworx and Railworx.
