World of Concrete 2026 Recap

World of concrete 2026 - A landmark show fuelled by grit, hustle, and unforgettable connections


What a incredible week at World of Concrete 2026 in Las Vegas!


With more than 1,300 exhibiting companies and over 47,000 industry professionals walking the aisles, the atmosphere was electric from the first setup day to the final handshake on the show floor.

For the WORX+ team, this year’s World of Concrete was another test of grit and hustle. From the early hours (and late nights) of booth setup to the epic show days engaging with attendees, our crew gave everything they had — and then some. There were moments of pure grind and plenty of laughs, but through it all, the team’s commitment and camaraderie shone brighter than ever.




The team pushed the booth design even further this year, anchoring the space with a massive concrete slab that became the true centrepiece. Making a return was the WORX+ custom concrete logo inlay — a genuine showstopper and easily one of the most intricate and demanding parts of the entire setup. Surrounding the inlay, the slab showcased a range of concrete flooring finishes, including a full stone exposure polished finish, a refined surface polish, and an outdoor finish using PEN-X — a system well-known and trusted across Australia, and introduced to the American market for the very first time!

 


Across three full exhibit days, we had the privilege of meeting so many passionate professionals — contractors, owners, technicians, and industry leaders — who stopped by to talk shop, explore WORX+ solutions, and see our equipment in action. Whether it was deep conversations about machinery, hands-on walkthroughs of live demos, or moments of inspiration on the floor, every interaction mattered and helped make this show one for the books.




Our very own director, Tim Van Der Veen, stepped into the spotlight to deliver live demonstrations that drew serious crowds. From first cut to power grouting, Tim broke down the process in real time — showing how full stone exposure can be achieved in a single pass using WORX+’s signature “donut” methodology, and how the right combination of tooling and chemicals allows contractors to power grout efficiently, eliminating the need for hand trowelling altogether. Practical, proven techniques designed to drive productivity, consistency, and top-tier polished concrete results.

It 
wasn’t just about showcasing products — it was about the industry and the polished concrete community. Seeing attendees light up when they saw the WORX+ lineup, asking thoughtful questions, comparing tools, and connecting with our team reminded us why we do what we do. Your curiosity, feedback, and genuine interest in learning and improving the way you work is what drives us forward.

To every person who stopped by the booth — thank you. Thank you for taking the time to talk, learn, laugh, and share your experiences. World of Concrete 2026 was a huge success because of you — the passionate people shaping the future of our industry. We’re already looking forward to World of Concrete 2027 with even bigger ambitions and the same relentless hustle.

Here’s to pushing boundaries, building connections, and crushing goals — together.
