After the digital edition in 2021 and the postponement in February, the Batibouw Construction Fair will open its doors again today at Brussels Expo. With 600 exhibitors, the physical version of 2022 will be somewhat smaller than it has been in the past. Before Corona, the exhibition was still dependent on about 800 participants.
In 2020, the exhibition was attended by 187 thousand visitors, and in this version the organization aims to receive 150 thousand visitors. In 2019, before the outbreak of Corona, 257,000 people were still visiting the construction fair, a decrease of 10 percent compared to 2018.
This time, the exhibition’s organization focused the spotlight on, among other things, innovations that contribute to reducing carbon dioxide emissions and energy bills. The latest generation of heat pumps, tailor-made solutions for solar panels, different types of insulation and many other alternatives to reduce energy consumption will be presented and explained in the palaces of the Brussels Expo.
“We are ready to welcome our visitors, so they can get inspired, compare materials, discover exclusive novelties, and make personal contacts with construction professionals,” says Frederic DeVoss, director of Batibouw.
The professional trade fair INSTALLPRO will again open its doors for HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), sanitation and electrical installations in Hall 3 of the Brussels Expo on Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 May.
Batibouw is open from Saturday 21 to Sunday 29 May, on weekdays from 11 am to 7 pm and on weekends from 10 am to 7 pm. Nighttime music is scheduled until 9pm on Tuesday 24 May and Wednesday 25 May. The entrance ticket costs 15 euros.
