From the 20th until the 25th of April took place the INTERMAT in Paris.
We collected some impressions and made also some photos.
You cannot compare this fair with the BAUMA in Munich. But nevertheless it was interesting to see the news in the industry.
Despite crisis and some refusals all large manufacturers were represented.
VOLVO presented itself on very large booth with their complete program. Now you could see the road construction machines of ABG in yellow and grey color. For the green conscience L 220 F HYBRID was issued. Will this concept become generally accepted?
CATERPILLAR was presented by the French dealer Bergerat-Monnoyeur.
Outside I saw the yellow color of Sönke Jordt immediately. It is funny, if the North Germans run themselves in Paris over the way.
SENNEBOGEN presented also several machines. Here is a photo of a 825 material handler.
The products of LIEBHERR were to be found outside. This A 934 material handler is enormous. But compared with the R 974 demolition excavator with the 42 meter demolition equipment then it seems small.
The Chinese manufacturer ZOOMLION issued a latticed mast crane.
Here are some more photos of further manufacturers such as KOMATSU, CNH and HITACHI.
The MOXY dumper has the DOOSAN color since August 2008, because for this time the Norwegian dumper manufacturer belongs to the DOOSAN company.
CASE, KAWASAKI, BOMAG (Fayat Group) and HIDROMEK were naturally also present.
BELL presented their range of ADT´s.
My personal favorite was the wheeled loader of YTO; -) With this product are the Chinese still for a long time no competition for the other manufacturers.
