Highlights and Innovations from HMI’s Participation
Paul DelFino
Simply stated, the HMI presence at the World of Concrete just keeps getting bigger and better. Pictures are worth a thousand words so below are the highlights.
- In 2016 HMI, for the first time in nearly 4 decades, abandoned its inside booth presence and expended its outside demonstrations while displaying its NEW Mudjacking Hopper Trailer and also demonstrating its Polyurethane Trailer system equipped with a new diesel generator.
- THE STAR of THE SHOW was the introduction and demonstration HMIs new Polyurethane Injector. Under design for over 2 years the unit is nearly backup free and enjoys a quick connect with newly designed zerts. The new unit performed flawlessly as it was used for over 90 demonstrations of lifts at the show. (Anticipated to be available in May. Watch for more information.)
- THE HMI TEAM –– I felt like I was in a ballet! Each member of the team had a role and orchestration of successive demonstrations appeared effortless. At exact moments cast members were on their spot ready. HMI goes to the World of Concrete to inform and educate. The cast talked with thousands of people sharing a combined 130 years of experience in concrete lifting and leveling.
- THE REUNION – HMI has some of the greatest customers in the world. Each year The World of Concrete feels more like a High School reunion where the class grows than a trade show. Countless customers come to visit sharing stories of their new business and fun recollections of their seminar class.
SUMMARY
- Equipment – Perfect
- Team – Perfect
- Customers – Perfect
WOW – what a show and a wonderful experience. If you have never attended the World of Concrete – do consider planning a 2017 visit. Beyond the displays the educational program is exceptional.
