The much-anticipated NUFAM 2025 trade fair is set to take place from September 25 to 28 at the Messe Karlsruhe, with a diverse program focusing on Digitalization, Infrastructure, Driving Personnel, and Hydrogen Propulsion.
Digitalization & Driving Personnel
The event features specialist forums and "Truck and Talk" sessions addressing industry developments, including driver training and simulation opportunities such as the DEKRA truck simulator in the NUFAM Action Zone. These initiatives aim to enhance driver skills and safety through digital technologies.
Infrastructure
The new multifunctional outdoor area, Peter Gross Bau Areal (PGBA), will host exhibits with optimal infrastructure for outdoor demonstrations and presentations. This modern venue will provide an excellent platform for showcasing innovations for commercial vehicles and related infrastructure needs.
Hydrogen Propulsion & Sustainable Fuels
While not explicitly detailed in the core press releases, exhibitors like InnoFuels emphasize renewable and sustainable fuels, including hydrogen-based technologies and certifications for sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). Their involvement signals industry interest in hydrogen and other green propulsion technologies to reduce emissions in commercial transport.
Product Innovations
Exhibitors such as SABA highlight lightweight construction materials and bonding technologies that contribute to sustainable, efficient vehicle design, indirectly supporting energy-efficient propulsion systems.
Additional Highlights
- A specialist forum on September 25 and 26 will focus on telematics and digital services.
- On September 28, the Truck Driver Forum will cover topics related to the professional everyday life of drivers.
