Press releases

The 31st SaMoTer construction machinery exhibition closed today at Veronafiere after attracting more than 40,000 specialist visitors over the five days of the event from 91 countries, with Germany, Spain and France in the first three places in terms of number of arrivals. There was also good attendance from Asia, Africa, North and South America

Without data control, construction sector companies cannot accurately assess and improve their performance and this makes growth more complicated. Today, however, constant and continuous performance monitoring is possible thanks to technology, although it must be fully understood before being implemented

Five points for inclusion in the agenda in what was defined at Samoter - the international construction machinery exhibition scheduled in Verona until 7 May - as the 'Marshall plan' for the Italian building industry. The meeting was attended by Stefano Patuanelli, member of the Senate Budget Commission, Hector Rosato, Foreign Affairs Commission and Secretary of COPASIR, and Pier Paolo Giovannini, National Council of Surveyors

Out of 536 exhibitors at SaMoTer, 115 are international from 23 countries. Top buyers from 36 target markets selected and hosted in collaboration with ICE-Trade Agency are also attending the event in Verona. Unacea: Italian exports of construction machinery in 2022 came to 3 billion euros (+9% over 2021); the balance of trade is in the black by almost 1 billion euros

There is a new paradigm In the construction world: to limit soil consumption as far as possible, each new project must involve the demolition of the pre-existing one. A stage that until recently was thought could be improvised; however, today, thanks to a virtuous path of innovation, it has to uphold precise and very high safety, environmental and regulatory standards

Technology and digitization help improve safety in the workplace because they enable the implementation of preventive measures to reduce accidents, theft and damage. However, on their own, these items are not enough: it is essential to raise awareness among operators at all levels

Exhibiting companies incentives are needed to facilitate the transition to hybrid or electric operating machinery

The construction machinery sector got off to a good start in 2023: with 5,313 construction site vehicles sold on the market between January and March, closing the first quarter with an increase of 5% over the same period in 2022

Digitisation is making its way into construction sector in its own right and does so by providing technologies applicable not only for medium-large construction sites but even smaller work areas

The energy transition is already but it will take a few more years must pass before we see effective changes. Alongside technology, incentive policies and the need for cultural change will also be decisive, especially in southern European countries

The Award, founded in 1973, goes to the dual-national (French-Italian) public promoter responsible for the construction and management of the international section of the Turin-Lyon railway line, thereby joining a long and authoritative list of award winners
