The leading theme of the next edition of BUDMA International Construction Fair, which will be held in Poznań from 19 to 22 January 2010, will be "Sustainable construction". Sustainable development is one of the most important and topical issues relating to all spheres of human activity and economic growth. This trend is reflected in the motto of next year's nineteenth edition of the BUDMA fair, which reads: "Sustainable construction - economy, ecology, human". Other shows held simultaneously at the Poznań fair grounds will include BUMASZ International Fair of Construction and Road Building Machines, Vehicles and Equipment, as well as CBS - Sports Facilities, Amenity Areas, Wellness & Spa.

The construction trade fairs held in January in Poznan will gather about 1500 leading producers and distributors on the surface of nearly 60.000 sq. m. (gross). Among the presented solutions there will be novelties and market debuts.

Sustainable construction

"Sustainable construction" stands for conscious adherence to the principles of economy, ecology and ergonomics in the construction industry, aiming to optimise buildings' thermal performance while ensuring safety, comfort and usability, and minimising the environmental impact. It is important to employ sustainable materials for this purpose, i.e. eco and human friendly raw materials capable of reducing noise, interference and waste. Moreover, such materials must be biodegradable or recyclable after demolition.
