Held every 3 years, INTERMAT is the worldwide event and unparalleled benchmark for the construction and infrastructure machinery, equipment, technology and materials sector.
Well-established in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, with 83% of its international visitors from this zone, INTERMAT Paris 2018 confirmed the vitality of the sector through its 1,400 exhibitors and nearly 200,000 visitors who came to expand their business opportunities.
Optimized by a visitor audience—half of which works for building contractors and 67% of whom are decision-makers, buyers or specifiers—this most recent event confirmed its status as an essential touchpoint for business negotiations at the very highest level.
“As a perfect echo of our signature 'Building tomorrow, today,' the 2021 show will feature its share of new products and solutions to provide the best responses to the expectations and evolution of a future-facing sector. Through our proximity with all the stakeholders in our ecosystem, we can federate all the professionals from the construction industry and from all stages along the supply chain. Our exhaustive and targeted vision of the markets offers our exhibitors and visitors a powerful strategic lever for efficiency, together with privileged access to high potential and developing regions. In 2021, we are also aiming to create new vocations for jobs in construction by shining a light on a sector that trains and hires people. We can therefore look forward to a productive edition in 2021, in a construction market that offers exciting prospects,” explains Isabelle Alfano, Exhibition Director.

With an increase of 30% in 2 years, the market for new technology in construction which this year stands at €1,320 billion, confirms their ubiquity in the sector. This has clearly not been lost on the 52% of worldwide construction firms who train their staff in how to use them.
As the flagship for the inventiveness of the sector in building a living environment that is exemplary from an environmental perspective and in testing the conditions of urban resilience, this new hub will offer a response to the perspectives and expectations of the profession by providing a special venue for cutting-edge technology which will be an integral part of equipment and machinery in 2021.
“The sector will bring together the most innovative solutions for and with everyone who is shaping the future of our regions with intelligence: augmented reality, mobile applications, drones, 3D printing, building information modelling (BIM), autonomous vehicles, cloud technology, virtual engineering, Internet of Things. All these new technologies will be highlighted across the show (start-ups area, exhibitor stands, talks). Our visitors will also have the chance to take a plunge into the heart of the work site version 4.0 of the future, which promotes productivity improvements, cost reductions, energy efficiency, better safety and undeniable competitive advantages,” says Alfano.
