ACE EXPO 2013

SEAN KINDER, Document Development Officer for the CMPA reports on his visit to the 2013 ACE Expo.

AFTER speaking with a number of CMPA members exhibiting at the 8th Australian Construction Exhibition 2013, from the 21st-23rd February, the overall consensus was that it was a productive three days for those construction materials processing business owners/employees who attended. Once again, Australia’s leading civil construction, earthmoving and quarrying industries expo, included some fantastic displays of new and innovative machinery, equipment and technology, recently released into the Australian market, including Komatsu’s Hybrid HB 215 LC bucket Loader and Volvo’s range of single arm Skidsteer loaders.

Some of the major suppliers featured this year included: Clark Equipment, Digga, Hyundai, JCB, Komatsu Australia, Terex Jaques, Volvo, Wacker Neuson and more were spread over the 40,000 square meter site.

Ultimately, these three days provide buyers with a means of seeing many suppliers, in the one place, saving individuals and businesses valuable time and money.
