The European Rental Association (ERA) is again organising a
day of rental themed events during Intermat, taking place on

Loxam depot visit (10.00-12.00)
ERA has organised a visit to a Loxam rental location at Aulnay-sous-Bois, which is reasonably close to the
Intermat showground.
“This guided visit will be an excellent opportunity to understand how the depots of these kinds of
companiesoperateand to learnmoreabout all operational aspectsof rental in France”, said theERA.
Buses to the rental depot will leave at 10 am from the Shuttle station – EsplanadeHall 1. Those interested
are advised to meet at 9.30 am. Buses will return delegates to Intermat around midday. The number of

presentation on the work of the ERA’s equipment technology committee. One of the key issues is the
committee’s recommendations tomanufacturers on the designof equipment inorder to reduce the risk of
customersdamaging rentalmachines. This isa topicof enormous interest tobothmanufacturersand rental
companies.
Following that presentation, in the same room, there will be a debate with rental companies and
manufacturers, moderated by
