Intermat · 2027

Agoris analysis · updated May 2026

Key takeaways

• Intermat 2024 brought together 127,500 visitors over 4 days, of whom 21% were international, coming from 130 countries (source: Le Moniteur Matériels, Construction Cayola) → this is the benchmark event for construction and civil engineering equipment in France, with a strong international dimension.
• 1,065 exhibitors in 2024, the majority of them international according to the organiser (source: Le Moniteur Matériels) → a trade show where the world's machinery manufacturers exhibit, not a regional one.
• The frequency has become triennial (2018, 2024, 2027) following a change to the calendar → exhibiting or visiting must be planned on a 3-year cycle, not a 4-year one.
• Intermat Demo zone: around 200 machines on outdoor demonstration, with hybrid and electric powertrains in the spotlight (source: intermatconstruction.com) → the appeal of the trade show is seeing the machines in operation, not just on a stand.
• Next edition: 21-24 April 2027 at Paris Nord Villepinte (source: intermatconstruction.com/infos-pratiques).
• Organised by Comexposium in partnership with Evolis and Seimat (source: intermatconstruction.com/présentation-du-salon).
• Co-located with World of Concrete Europe (4th edition in 2027), a forum on concrete decarbonisation (source: intermatconstruction.com).

Preparing your visit

For the exhibitor

• 18 months out: make contact with Comexposium, book your space (machinery areas are reserved very early).
• 12 months out: machinery transport logistics, application for the Innovation Awards.

• 3 months out: accreditations, accommodation (international turnout, book early).
• 6 weeks out: machine delivery, final briefing.

For the decision-maker visitor

• €39 badge online (vs €69 on site): register ahead of time.
• Allow 1 to 2 days: the outdoor Demo zone and the halls cover a large area.
• Target the machinery demonstration slots (every 10 minutes) in advance via the programme.

Policy & CSR initiatives

The decarbonisation of construction machinery is the central CSR focus of Intermat: electric, hydrogen, biofuel (HVO) powertrains and retrofitting were at the heart of the 2024 edition (source: Le Moniteur). For 2027, the organiser is structuring the trade show around three pillars: environmental, societal and economic sustainability (source: Construction Briefing).

How the trade show has evolved

Trajectory analysis

Intermat 2024 confirmed its status as a major international event for construction equipment (127,500 visitors, 130 countries). The shift to a triennial rhythm (next edition 2027) tightens the cycle compared with the historical four-yearly cadence. Variable to watch for 2027: the machinery decarbonisation momentum, which is reshaping the exhibitor offering and the demonstrations.
