Layher UK draws strong turnout at latest ‘Sizzle & Learn’ event

Layher UK has reported a strong turnout at its latest ‘Sizzle & Learn’ open morning, with attendees engaging closely with both product demonstrations and digital tools.

The session followed the company’s recently launched open morning series, designed to give customers practical insight into its systems and applications.

Layher said the event focused on its strategic partnership approach, alongside the four core values that underpin its way of working. Discussions centred on how these principles are applied in real project environments rather than remaining theoretical.

A key highlight was the SIM2Field XR application, which allows scaffold designs to be visualised in 3D and placed into real-world environments. According to Layher, the tool generated strong interest, with attendees able to see how digital models translate directly onto site.

The company said the reaction reflected growing demand for practical digital solutions that can improve planning and communication on projects.

The session also covered Layher’s event systems, before moving into a networking period. The company noted that informal discussions remain a key part of the format, allowing contractors and partners to explore specific use cases and challenges.

Layher reported positive feedback from attendees, particularly around the balance of live demonstrations and open discussion.

Further ‘Sizzle & Learn’ events are scheduled to take place in Livingston on 24 June and Eggborough on 21 July, as the company continues its nationwide programme.
