Bobcat to Showcase Sustainable Innovations at Celebration of Construction on the National Mall
Bobcat Co., a global compact equipment, innovation and worksite solutions brand, is showcasing its technology and innovation advancements that are helping to empower people to build a more sustainable world at the Association of Equipment Manufacturer’s (AEM) Celebration of Construction on the National Mall, May 14-16 in Washington D.C.
The exhibition will stretch between the Washington Monument and the U.S. Capitol Building with exhibitors highlighting the equipment used to build the transportation and utility infrastructure vital to the modern world.
“The Celebration of Construction on the National Mall is an important opportunity for manufacturers to share how we’re advancing the construction industry and sustainability by showcasing our innovative products to policymakers, influencers and consumers,” said Mike Ballweber, president, Doosan Bobcat North America. “Together as an industry, we hope to educate attendees on the important work of the construction sector and highlight the unique opportunities and challenges we face.”
Bobcat has focused its recent innovation work in the areas of alternative energy, autonomous or operator-assisted operation, and digital technology.
Visitors can see the latest technologies from Bobcat including the Bobcat T7X all-electric compact track loader, the Bobcat S7X all-electric skid-steer loader, battery-electric excavators including the E10e and E32e, the Bobcat E60 excavator with Bobcat Intelligent Control System, and demonstrations of its advanced display technology and its collision warning and avoidance system.
Bobcat’s electric innovations offer operators a more sustainable platform, and additionally, the technology allows it to do more than its diesel-hydraulic counterpart—with lower noise, fewer parts and instantaneous power.
“As a brand built on innovation, we are excited to showcase how Bobcat is leading the industry and making a positive contribution to sustainability and our world,” said Joel Honeyman, Doosan Bobcat vice president of global innovation. “We aim to empower people to accomplish more, and to do that, we have developed a number of breakthrough technologies and sustainable solutions to make work more efficient and build a better tomorrow.”
The Bobcat booth is located north of the Smithsonian Castle across Jefferson Drive SW. The event is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday through Tuesday. It is free to attend and open to the public.
