Great to see Holmes go from strength to strength.

It’s not only about the locating.

Innsbruck, Tyrol, became last week the global hub for roofing excellence, as the 29th World Championship for Young Roofers and the 72nd IFD Congress took center stage. Talented roofers and facade specialists showcased their craft in a setting that celebrated skill, innovation, and international collaboration. Leister was honored to support this remarkable event, providing tools that enabled participants to deliver outstanding results and strengthening connections across the roofing industry. Here are some of the Event Highlights: + From facades to flat and metal roofs, young professionals demonstrated precision and teamwork in every task. Austria claimed gold, followed by Switzerland and China - marking China’s first podium finish. + Day one saw competitors expertly using Leister’s trusted tools, including the Varimat 700, Uniroof 700, and Unidrive 500, to tackle challenges with accuracy and efficiency. + At the Leister booth, attendees explored the latest in welding and hot-air technology, exchanging insights and forging new connections. The championship was more than just a test of skills; it was a space where emerging talent applied innovation to real challenges, learned from global peers, and demonstrated the craftsmanship that drives the roofing industry forward. Leister played a critical role, both by equipping participants with trusted tools and by fostering meaningful exchanges and collaborations that will shape the future of roofing practices worldwide.

Did you know that Ring Knutstorp racetrack is often referred to as the "Nürburgring of Sweden" or the "Valley of Speed"? It’s a great spot for an event like Entreprenad Live this week 😎 . But instead of road racing, skid training, or rallycross, you’ll find a ton of machines just sitting there - which is probably for the best, since they’re not really built for this track’s challenging turns 😅 We will definitely be there and we hope to meet both new and old friends. Why should anyone take time to find us in booth 159, Fredrik Gustavsson? "It’s an excellent opportunity to try out the material firsthand, seeing the difference that Hammerglass can make for you. If you're unsure whether the product is right for you and your equipment, we’ll cover the basics and let our safety screens speak for themselves while you get some exercise with the sledgehammer. We’re happy to answer any questions about driver safety and how we can work together to develop safer machines and work environments. Input from machine operators is crucial for advancing safety, products, and standards. Which exhibitors are you looking forward to chatting with? "I’ll probably visit most of them, but I’m especially excited to see Swecon Anläggningsmaskiner AB and Volvo Construction Equipment's new excavators and how electrification is progressing." What significance do you think the expo holds? "Entreprenad Live is a shortcut for people to connect with us and others at an early stage. Many are likely awaiting new machines to take on bigger or tougher jobs and are considering what protection they might need. The expo is ideal for gathering information to make the best possible decisions."

Great video explaining the importance of correct tyre pressures vs. load and the impact on soil. #trelleborgagri #tyreoptmisation #correcttyrepressure

It’s interesting how these guys praise the Bridgeport from Colchester Machine Tool Solutions for being so versatile and having almost no limits on what you can make. But I bet even they never thought it could help to make a career in marketing like mine! 🤣😂 As I’ve mentioned in a previous post, these machines are fantastic, and every engineering company should have one. #bridgeportmillingmachine #machinetools #millingmachine #toolmaking #toolroom #toolmaker
