ES-GE at IAA Commercial Vehicles 2018
20. – 27. September 2018 in Hanover
What has been manifested as a motto in the last few years will once again determine the motif of our exhibition appearance at the IAA Commercial Vehicles 2018: the trend towards light, low and versatile vehicles.
Our exhibits
This year, we will be presenting a total of 11 vehicles on a once again enlarged area, where we will present an overview of our product range. Among the presented vehicles there are semi-trailers and trailers of our own brand as well as semi-trailers of the Belgian manufacturer Faymonville / MAX Trailer. In cooperation with our long-standing supplier Faymonville / MAX Trailer and the crane manufacturer MKG, we will also be presenting additional vehicles from our portfolio as partners on their booths. Additionally to our own products, we will also present semi-trailers and trailers of our own brand as well as low-loader semi-trailers of the Belgian manufacturer.
