From May 20 to 22, 2025, the construction industry will converge in Barcelona for the biennial event, Construmat. This year's edition promises to be a significant milestone in the sector, with a focus on sustainable building practices and innovations. The event will take place at the Gran Vía Exhibition Centre, offering a platform for discussions and showcasing of materials, systems, and solutions that promote sustainable construction.
The exhibition area for Construmat 2025 is set to be expansive, covering an impressive 32,000 square meters. This space will host over 350 exhibitors from 22 countries and more than 700 brands. Among these exhibitors are leading companies that will contribute to the transversal and international character of the event. Notable figures such as David Adjaye, Stephen Bates, Marta Peris, José Toral, and Mohammed Adib will be keynote speakers at the Sustainable Building Congress.
In addition to the exhibition area, the congress will feature various activities aimed at inspiring innovation and professional growth. Masterclasses by CIAAD (Centro de Investigación y Acción en Arquitectura y Diseño) will provide certified training sessions. The congress will also include workshops and talks that address the latest trends in construction for post-disaster scenarios. Furthermore, there will be a pop-up "RETHINK" by Colab, which offers a unique library of sustainable materials.
For professionals in the field, attending Construmat offers more than just an opportunity to see new products; it also includes receiving a certificate of attendance that can be validated as continuing professional development (PDC) hours through the CGATE (Consejo General de la Arquitectura Técnica de España).
The event is not only about showcasing products but also about networking and finding new opportunities. Startups are encouraged to participate in this vibrant ecosystem. The summit of engineering installations and other activities beyond the exhibition area ensure that attendees have a comprehensive experience.
With its commitment to sustainability and innovation, Construmat 2025 is set to be a pivotal event for anyone involved in or interested in the construction industry. Whether you are an architect, engineer, or simply someone passionate about sustainable building practices, this event should not be missed.
