Professional tools from Bosch make daily work easier and safer for craftspeople. Professionals from the building, electrical, plumbing and heating, ventilation and air conditioning, metalworking, carpentry, joinery and facility management trades can now experience this for themselves: The Bosch Pro Tour brings the world of professional power tools, measuring equipment and accessories directly to its commercial users – with a large exhibition area, numerous usage stations and an innovative concept. The tour is centered around a modular 40-tons truck which will be deployed for the first time at the Holz-Handwerk European Trade Fair for Machine Technology, Equipment and Supplies for the Wood Crafts in Nuremberg from July 12th to July 15th, 2022, before it makes its way through Germany, Austria and Switzerland starting on August 13th. On board, the truck has the entire Bosch Professional product range, from battery-operated high-performance tools from the Biturbo series, such as the world's most powerful 18V cordless screwdriver, the GSR 18V-150 C Professional, through to the matching accessories from the Bosch Expert product range.

For professionals from professionals

One indisputable advantage: Bosch offers professional tools and accessories from a single source. Visitors to the Bosch Pro Tour can find out for themselves at various sites. Craftspeople can experience almost dust-free working with the latest GCM 18V-216 DC Professional miter saw as well as powerful drilling with the GBH 18V-36 C Professional and GBH 18V-45 C Professional Biturbo hammers or precise measuring, e.g. using the robust laser measures GLM 100-25 C Professional and GLM 150-27 C Professional. The content of the tour is precisely tailored to the relevant target group at each location: Thanks to various modules in and around the truck, visitors can find products and practical examples relevant to them at every site. A total of 15 stations are available during full use and cater to the needs of the individual trades.

The truck is both showroom and workshop at the same time: The tools can be tested at everyday usage stations such as a roof truss, a reinforced foundation or on steel stairs under professional instruction. Trained specialist staff advise users on how to select the right products and on how to use them correctly and explain special functions for the health and safety of users, such as the X-Lock function for tool-free accessory changes on angle grinders or the automatic switch-off function for motors thanks to KickBack Control during unexpected rotations when drilling. Via digital expansions at individual stations, visitors can find out more product details, get information about application examples and test digital services. Food and drink from the food truck and various outdoor tasks, whereby professionals can compete against each other, create a relaxed atmosphere.

Further information

By the end of this year, the truck will have stopped at around 30 locations, including large construction sites, trade fairs and in-house fairs or company premises. At selected sites, individual content will be transmitted via YouTube live streams and the Bosch Professional experience world will thus be made accessible for all interested professionals. This also includes industry experts and known influencers. An overview of all dates and locations can be found at www.bosch-pro.link/tour. The tour is free of charge and does not require pre-registration.
