ABOUT THE FAIR
Asian Buildtex is a trade fair for building materials, building technology, and interior design. Since its founding in 1996, it has been one of the most important industry gatherings in the Asian construction sector. The name "Buildtex" stands for "Building Technology and Materials Exhibition" and highlights the event’s core focus: innovative construction and building technologies. Held annually in Hong Kong, the fair is part of Build4Asia, the region’s largest platform for building technology.
Asian Buildtex is organized by Informa Markets Hong Kong, a subsidiary of the globally active Informa PLC. With over 30 years of experience in organizing professional trade events, the company combines international expertise with deep regional market knowledge. This creates a specialized platform that fosters innovation and sustainable development in the construction industry—particularly in light of current challenges such as climate protection, resource efficiency, and digitalization.
The trade fair centers on sustainable construction, eco-friendly materials, and the digital transformation of construction processes and building management. Exhibitors showcase forward-looking technologies and solutions, including intelligent control systems, IoT-based sensors, high-performance insulation materials, recycled building products, smart HVAC technologies, energy-efficient lighting, and state-of-the-art automation and communication systems. The offerings are further enhanced by concepts for environmental and water management as well as cutting-edge facility management innovations.
The fair targets trade professionals from architecture, engineering, construction planning, project development, and building operations, as well as representatives of public institutions. Exhibitors span all relevant sectors—from material manufacturers and technology providers to suppliers of digital solutions for urban infrastructure.
The Hong Kong location underscores the international significance of the event. As a major transport hub and innovation center with access to Asian markets, the city offers ideal conditions for expert exchange and business networking.
Complementing the exhibition is a high-quality supporting program featuring expert forums, conferences, and seminars. These events explore current trends, present proven best practices, and promote dialogue among international industry leaders.
With its in-depth content, strategic focus, and global reach, Asian Buildtex is far more than a conventional trade fair—it delivers lasting momentum for the future of the construction industry in Asia.
The Asian Buildtex takes place annually, and therefore for the eighteenth time previsibly in May 2027 in Hong Kong.
