Unacea Assembly Focuses on Innovation
In the first three months of 2025, 4,400 construction equipment were placed on the Italian market, marking a 6 per cent increase compared to the same period of 2024. More specifically, 4,215 earthmoving machines (+5 per cent) and 185 road machines (+11 per cent) were sold. These figures have been released during the Unacea assembly, held on May 13th at the Senate of the Republic.
The event, which featured an opening speech by the Senator, Luca De Carlo, as well as opening remarks by the Minister of enterprises and made in Italy, Adolfo Urso, was an opportunity for a dialogue between industry, institutions and scientific environmentalism on topics such as technological innovation, sustainability and the safety of the new generation of construction equipment.
鈥淭he construction equipment sector confirms itself as a fundamental pillar of the Italian economy,鈥� stated Adolfo Urso, Minister of enterprises and made in Italy. 鈥淚t is essential to continue investing in technologies that respect the environment and improve the quality of our cities. The transition is a great opportunity and the acceleration of digitalisation, also thanks to the resources provided by our Ministry, becomes a multiplier of opportunities. Companies must be aware of this and take advantage of the incentives for the future of their operations, especially in light of large areas that need reconstruction, such as Ukraine, for which a reconstruction conference will be held in Rome in July.鈥�
鈥淎 clear public strategy is needed, based on targeted incentives for fleet renewal, consistent regulations at both national and local levels, and full recognition of the environmental and digital dimensions of construction sites,鈥� stated Luca De Carlo, President of the Senate鈥檚 Committee on industry, commerce, tourism, agriculture and agri-food production. 鈥淧arliament is ready to do its part, with openness and a constructive spirit, so that our industrial system can face today鈥檚 challenges with strength and competitiveness.鈥�
鈥淭he industry we represent keeps pace with technological advancements, producing increasingly safe and efficient machinery,鈥� said Michele Vitulano, president of Unacea. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 why our campaigns also focus on environmental sustainability. We support the renewal of a machinery fleet that is still outdated for about 40 per cent of the equipment in use, we promote the use of industrial concrete mixers and call on relevant institutions to establish low-emission zones for construction and worksite machinery activities, to protect air quality and the sustainability of urban environments.鈥�
