Global scaffolding specialist AT-PAC has confirmed plans for a significant expansion across Europe, as it showcases a range of innovative systems at Bauma 2025 in partnership with Austrian formwork giant Doka.

Speaking to ScaffMag during a tour of the AT-PAC stand, Paolo Zumaglini, CEO of umdasch Industrial Solutions, said the company is in the final stages of launching a series of new branches across the continent.

“We’re gearing up for huge global expansion,” said Mr Zumaglini. “We’re in the latter stages of opening several branches across Europe, which will strengthen our position and bring us closer to customers in key markets.”

AT-PAC is a key scaffolding exhibitor at the world’s largest construction equipment trade fair, held this week in Munich. The company is displaying its latest scaffold systems alongside Doka, with whom it shares a close strategic partnership as part of the Umdasch Group.

The collaboration between AT-PAC and Doka has resulted in a host of new modular scaffolding solutions designed to meet the needs of modern construction sites โ€“ from high-load structures to public access systems and faรงade work.

Standout Scaffolding Tower

A centrepiece of the joint stand is a 30-metre scaffold tower, constructed using AT-PAC’s Ringlock system and Doka’s UniKit heavy-duty platform. The structure features a walkable viewing deck and houses several new products developed jointly by the two firms.

Among the innovations are:

MPBS (Multipurpose Beam System): A modular system offering longer spans and fewer components, compatible with Ringlock and ideal for complex scaffolding geometries.

PAS Escape Stair System: A steel staircase solution for high-traffic environments, including public infrastructure and industrial sites, offering child-safety features and full Ringlock compatibility.

Ringlock Hybrid Standard: Designed for faรงade and refurbishment works, combining the benefits of frame and modular scaffolding for greater flexibility and ease of use.

Ringshore: A new frame shoring system built on the Ringlock platform, boasting faster assembly and reduced labour requirements.

 

Each system has been developed to align with the needs of both industrial and construction clients.

A Key Pillar of umdasch Industrial Solutions

 

AT-PAC now operates within umdasch Industrial Solutions, a newly created division of the Umdasch Group, sitting alongside Doka and shopfitting specialists umdasch The Store Makers.

With more than 30 years of scaffolding expertise, AT-PAC is increasingly seen as the industrial scaffolding arm of the group โ€“ leading engineering development and system integration for projects worldwide.

Mr Zumaglini emphasised the importance of synergy across the group.

“Our internal collaboration means that every innovation is grounded in real-world application. The aim is always the same โ€“ to make scaffolding faster, safer and more efficient,” he said.

Its presence at bauma marks a pivotal moment in its international growth strategy as AT-PAC continues expanding its European footprint, ambitioning to become one of the top 3 global scaffolding brands.
