Taking place at the Royal Highland Centre in Edinburgh on 26-27 April, the SPOA will be at Avenue C Stand 13 and will be joined by members and partner institutions including Police Scotland, CITB and the National Construction College.

Visitors to the stand can also enjoy complimentary coffee from Flat Flat White and even a barbecue from Over Hot Coals.

Callum Mackintosh, immediate past president of the SPOA, said: “ScotPlant is a real highlight for the plant industry. It is an opportunity to see the newest innovations in machinery and equipment, and importantly a chance for everybody to get together and share the challenges, experiences and opportunities we are facing.

“With that in mind, we have gone all out this year to make the SPOA’s stand at ScotPlant 2024 a social space where members can meet up informally over a coffee and a bite to eat but also have access to partners and valuable advice and information.

“Of course, we are also using the opportunity of having so many plant operators in one place to stage the qualifier for the Scottish Plant Operator Challenge and we’re looking forward to seeing as many as possible putting their skills to the test.

“I will be there all weekend along with colleagues from the Executive Committee. See you there!”
