This year’s RAAPA show attracted exhibitors from all over Europe including Belgium’s Elaut, which won a ‘Best Exhibition’ gold medal for its stand.

Having exhibited for the first time in Russia, the manufacturer’s Helga Verstraeten told InterGame: “We received a high level of interest in our product at this year’s show. Elaut is well known in Russia as we established a solid reputation with our cranes 12 years ago.

“Due to the changing conditions in the Russian market we decided to take a booth in Moscow and it was a great success; we had lots of interest in Mistral and E-Claw. Visitors to the show were enthusiastic about the first fully automatic pusher operated system and the colour cranes with LEDs and the first IntraXion system were a great draw to the stand. We also used plush and prizes from ITM Leisure, based in the UK, to show our machines off to the highest level.”
