Bauma 2025 started with a strong political signal. Representatives from federal, state, and local politics joined the trade fair management in opening the industry event in Munich. It was clear right from the start that construction, infrastructure, and sustainable technologies are also high on the political agenda. The large crowds at the East Entrance confirmed the relevance of the trade fair for national and international guests. As the world's largest trade event of its kind, bauma remains a place where economic perspectives, technological developments, and social requirements come together.
bauma 2025 focused on machines and systems for modern construction site use. Whether compact excavators, electric dump trucks, or mixing vehicles—numerous exhibitors presented further developments of their products and innovative concepts. The combination of live demonstrations and technical depth allows visitors to experience trends firsthand. In addition to complete machines, components also played an important role. Drive technology, sensor technology, and control systems were specifically presented, including award-winning solutions such as Caterpillar's C13D industrial engine and new chassis systems from Berco.
The trade fair clearly showed that the construction industry is undergoing change. Manufacturers are increasingly turning to electric or hybrid drive solutions. Vehicles such as the Liebherr T264e and the Komatsu PC 7000 are examples of a future in which performance and emission reduction are no longer a contradiction. At the same time, bauma 2025 opens up prospects for new infrastructure projects. Technological solutions in tunnel construction, efficient logistics concepts, and modern vehicle systems form the basis for sustainable construction in both urban and rural areas.
