Four strong brands, more than 90 innovative exhibits, 29 of which are pioneering world premieres, 10,560 sq m of exhibition space and over 100 experienced specialists: these impressive figures describe the Wirtgen Group at bauma 2013 and demonstrate its innovative force in the road and mineral technologies business segments.

With their advanced solutions, the strong Wirtgen, V?gele, Hamm and Kleemann brands are once again setting the pace in the industry. Tailored closely to needs in the field, the new Wirtgen Group machines offer customers added value that greatly facilitates their everyday work at the construction site, mine or quarry.

With six world premieres, Wirtgen is ringing in a new era in roadway construction. Be it new construction or rehabilitation, road building companies are ideally equipped to meet any challenge with the two, new-generation cold recyclers and soil stabilisers as well as slipform pavers.

Maximum process reliability, lower fuel consumption, greater ease of operation: that is the new Dash3 generation from V?gele. Eleven world premieres among the road pavers and extending screeds can be seen live at bauma 2013.

With world premieres in the H, HD+ and HD CompactLine product families, Hamm rounds out its range of high-quality vibratory compactors and tandem rollers. Efficiency is the keyword for the future of compaction technology. The new Mobicat Evo line of mobile jaw crushers sets new standards in the contractor market.
