The four-in-one show
BUILDING FUTURES GULF
by
BATIMAT
will include:
-
Structure Gulf Exhibition
(focussing on structural
technologies and
implementation techniques);
-
Envelope
Gulf Exhibition (solutions
for cladding, façade,
joinery and shutters);
-
Intelligent Building Gulf
Exhibition (solutions,
systems and networks to
improve user comfort inside
a building); and
-
HVAC Gulf Exhibition
(thermal comfort solutions
focusing on temperature and
air control, energy,
plumbing and water
treatment).
The shows focus on key aspects
of modern building construction
encompassing the technical,
energy-related, economic,
environmental and safety aspects
of construction and are aimed at
property developers and owners,
architects, engineers,
consultants, dealers and
contractors.
The exhibition's organizers say
that the strong demand for floor
space is a reflection of the
boom in the construction and
property development sector in
the country and the region. The
Middle East construction market,
currently valued at $300
billion, is registering 10
percent annual growth, according
to a study commissioned by Reed
Exhibitions. “The building
sector in the region is maturing
quickly with emphasis shifting
from completing construction in
the quickest and cheapest
possible manner to a focus on
ensuring building performance”,
said Leonard Lecoq, Show
Manager,
BUILDING FUTURES GULF
by
BATIMAT.
“BUILDING
FUTURES GULF by BATIMAT has been designed to provide a comprehensive look at the
building sector via the
specialised platform of the four
shows. This format has
been
well appreciated by the market
and we have received excellent
exhibitor interest despite the
show being in its inaugural
edition”, added Lecoq.
China will host country
pavilions at each of the four
shows, while a pavilion
showcasing Italian expertise in
the HVAC sector will be
organised in collaboration with
Mostra Convegno Expocomfort –
the biennial international
exhibition that is the world’s
largest in the HVAC sector. A
Turkish pavilion focussing on
the Structural and Envelope
elements of buildings will also
be organised.
Abu
Dhabi – a booming construction
market
A report by the Abu Dhabi
Chamber of Commerce and Industry
(ADCCI) states that over AED 850
billion will be invested in the
Abu Dhabi construction market in
the coming years. Stating that
Abu Dhabi was the ideal venue
for BUILDING FUTURES GULF
by BATIMAT in the Middle
East, said “Mega projects that
are in the pipeline such as the
Warner Bros. and Ferrari theme
parks, the Louvre and Guggenheim
museums, The Central Market and
Capital Centre property
developments are but a few
examples that highlight Abu
Dhabi’s position as one of the
most dynamic construction
markets in the region“.
Value-added
features
Besides, an innovative business
meetings programme will be
offered at
BUILDING FUTURES GULF
by
BATIMAT
whereby Reed Exhibitions
will match offer and demand
before the show by identifying
construction projects as well as
the building solutions that the
projects need. The exhibition
can therefore serve as an ideal
business and deal-making
platform and ensure that
visitors at the show are able to
promptly zero in on the specific
solutions they require.
Presentations and seminars
focussing on the four themes of
the exhibition will also be
organised with the participation
of experts such as Ecosmart, TBC-France
and the Intelligent Building
Group. The International Union
of Architects (UIA) will
organize The International
Architects Conference at the
show.
