Richard Pavitt, Event Director of The Big 5 Heavy, says:

 
“The success of The Big 5 Heavy this year shows a growing demand for PMV, commercial vehicles, foundations & geotechnical, quarrying & mining, road construction, and site equipment in the region.”
“We’re therefore delighted to announce that the show will now feature as part of The Big 5, the region’s largest construction event. The introduction of The Big 5 Heavy will create one mega construction event for the industry to source products for the construction cycle, from concept through to completion, under one roof.”

The Big 5 Heavy follows the recently announced return of the popular Middle East Concrete (MEC) event at The Big 5. Dedicated entirely to the concrete industry, MEC will host over 100 concrete exhibitors and four days of world-class education led by The American Concrete Institute, PCI and Precast For All.

Top industry players are welcoming the move. Robert Winkler, Operations Manager at Bauer Equipment Gulf, says:
“We believe that combining The Big 5 and The Big 5 Heavy is the right choice at this point in time.
