How is your company preparing for Excon 2023?

This year, at Excon, we have an indoor booth wherein we will showcase the latest road and mineral technologies.

Will your company launch any products or initiatives at Excon 2023 that will align with Excon’s theme of “Building a Better World” through sustainable practices?

Sustainability is a firmly-rooted element in our corporate principles and a guideline for our day-to-day actions: The group understands sustainability is a social commitment and simultaneously an opportunity to further the success of our company and business activities of our customers. This is why the Wirtgen Group firmly anchors the topic of sustainability in all its corporate processes. Sustainability already plays an essential role in the design and construction of all our group products and is a key factor in all further phases of the value chain – up to and including the use of machines in projects around the world. Our vision: Smarter, safer and more sustainable road construction.

Your view of the Indian market for your products.

Both for the Wirtgen Group and Wirtgen India, the current year will be the best-ever for the group’s performance. We expect all-round growth both in India and exports and more products in FY 24 with our factory expansion in Pune, which should be completed by August next year.
