Key issues in the spotlight:
Logistics 4.0 meets Industrie 4.0

the Hannover Exhibition Grounds so that you, as an exhibitor,
can benefit directly from the numerous decision-makers from
international industry.

In the current era of integrated production, intralogistics is

­becoming increasingly important thanks to the key role it plays
in optimizing the industrial value chain. Logistics 4.0 will meet
Industrie 4.0 in Hannover. Companies will show how digitaliza­
tion is set to change the supply chain in an international con-
text and which new business models could emerge as a result.
Apart from production, the focus will be on e-commerce and
the online retail sector, where double-digit growth rates are
creating major challenges that can be tackled successfully only
by switching increasingly to automated and digital processes.

Join us in Hannover, where the industry’s key international

players will be discussing current trends in Big Data, the Inter-
net of Things and human-machine communication. Meet your
global target customers at the trade fair and be part of the
­realigned CeMAT.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Enthusiastic feedback:
What our exhibitors think

The co-staging of CeMAT and HANNOVER MESSE at the same time and
­venue ensures close links between the two events and will clearly increase
the business opportunities for our exhibitors. This is reflected in the unparal-
leled level of anticipation in connection with the trade fair event of the year.

Joachim Hänel
Senior manager, Hänel Vertrieb

“CeMAT is a must for Hänel. Its proximity to HANNOVER MESSE makes it even
more important for us as it enables us to gain additional customers from
­industry. With our solutions for the automated supply of files and materials,
we are one of the world’s leading suppliers in our sector. We will once again be
showcasing our innovations at CeMAT 2018 and taking advantage of the new
opportunities available.”

Michael Baranowski
CEO, TEAM GmbH

“Digitalization and Logistics 4.0 are a driving force in the industry.

­Companies are facing the challenges of globalization and developments in
e-commerce, including same day delivery. As a result, existing IT solutions
are being completely re-evaluated. Only state-of-the-art technologies can
provide future-proof answers. In conjunction with HANNOVER MESSE,
­CeMAT 2018 provides the ideal environment for making investment
­decisions.”

Philipp Hahn-Woernle
CEO, viastore

“The co-staging of CeMAT with HANNOVER MESSE has strong synergies for us as
a leading intralogistics partner for industrial companies. Smart, efficient and
­reliable logistics operations are becoming increasingly important in all sectors
of industry – and as exhibitors we have the opportunity to showcase our innova-
tive software and system solutions to an even wider audience. At the same time,
CeMAT continues to be a key event in the calendar for logistics experts from all
industries – from the food trade to the textile industry and the pharmaceutical
sector. We are therefore looking forward to strengthening relationships with our
existing customers and to gaining many more.”

Thomas A. Fischer
Managing Director of Sales, Marketing & Service (CSO), STILL GmbH

“As a result of Industrie 4.0, production – and thus production logistics –

is changing. The resulting trend towards digitalization – away from simple
­demand for individual industrial trucks and towards fleet and integrated
­system solutions – is changing the requirements for logistics companies.
­Customers require increasingly customized solutions from a one-stop shop.
These trends will also have an impact on CeMAT 2018.

With CeMAT taking place in conjunction with HANNOVER MESSE 2018,

we ­expect that the value added by additional exhibition areas will bring a
­significant increase in the number of trade visitors. Once again, STILL will be
exhibiting at a pavilion and will be one of the three leading industrial truck
manufacturers present at HANNOVER MESSE.”
