The Construction Equipment Association
The voice of the UK construction equipment market since 1942.
We support our members to achieve industry excellence through market and technical information and insights, networking, trade shows, exhibitions and events, and lobbying work with the UK and European Parliaments. We are represented in Brussels as active members of the Committee for European Construction Equipment. Our influence is felt worldwide through our technical, regulatory and international trade work. We represent construction equipment OEMs, distributors, attachments and components manufacturers, and service providers to the industry.

CEA marks a year of delivery on Manifesto pledges
A year on from our Manifesto launch, we bring you an update that reflects on how our original asks have shaped our work over the past year. It's a snapshot of an industry that's working hard to ensure the UK remains a competitive, attractive and forward-thinking place to manufacture construction equipment.
