This year, a record 2,751 exhibitors took part in MosBuild, representing 43 countries and displaying the full range of products, services and equipment for the building and interiors industry. Visitors numbered 80,100 (97% of whom were trade visitors).
MosBuild is the collective name for six co-located exhibitions, which represent the six major sectors of the Russian building and interiors industry:
Event Director, Darryl Pawsey, comments, “MosBuild has reinforced its status as the largest trade exhibition in Russia and continues to be the focal point for business in the industry. According to the feedback we receive from our exhibitors, it seems that the Russian market for building and interiors products shows no sign of slowing and, for many international companies, it is the number one strategic growth market. The event has wide appeal; from companies who are new to the market and are looking for distributors to those who are already well established in Russia and are looking to strengthen their presence, arrange meetings with clients and introduce their new products. We are very much looking forward to the 2009 event, which we plan to make even bigger and better than this year’s event”.
The 2009 event will take place on 31 March – 3 April in Moscow.

In the middle of March 2007, more than 10,000 trade representatives from all countries throughout the world will arrive to Uzbekistan to take part in the country’s largest International specialised exhibition “Construction – UzBuild 2007”
UzBuild is a leading annual exhibition of building materials and construction equipment in Uzbekistan. It is carried out by the ITE Uzbekistan company, a partner of the British Exhibition Company ITE Exhibitions & Conferences Ltd. In Russia, ITE conducts the largest construction forums – MosBuild and BalticBuild – and a number of similar exhibitions with a general name “BUILD” in Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Mongolia, Tajikistan and other CIS countries and Eastern Europe.
The UzBuild exhibition to be held on 13-16 March, 2007 traditionally opens ‘the construction season’ in Uzbekistan, since in spring, after short winter frosts, the builders begin to procure construction materials and equipment, consult manufacturers of construction materials, and make contracts for procurement of equipment, finishing materials and construction works. And most of individuals would also prefer to have their accommodation facilities renovated during the warm and dry season. In Uzbekistan warm weather is well known to set in March.
Generally, UzBuild 2007 demonstrates the most recent trends and novelties in the market of construction materials and technology. The exhibition is subdivided into different thematic sections thus making it more convenient for visitors to get acquainted with specific parts of the exposition.
The most popular sections among the specialists are as follows: Building & Construction Materials, Building Equipment, Road-Building Machinery, Heat & Vent, Windows & Doors, Saunas & Swimming Pools, Sanitary-ware, Ceramics & Stone, Varnishes & Paints, Roofing Materials, Flooring, Lighting & Electrical Engineering, Electric Tools, Interiors, Gardening and Landscape.
Since the first UzBuild exhibition held in 2000 the number of its participants and visitors is increasing from year to year. Some 35,000 specialists and more than 350 exhibitors from 27 countries throughout the world have visited UzBuild for the period of 7 years.
In many aspects such a great interest reflects current trends in the market of construction and finishing materials. Intensive construction and reconstruction activity is now underway in Uzbekistan, as well. A great attention is paid to improve the appearance of the capital and other cities throughout the country. A good investment climate, particularly 3 year exemption of construction and building-and-assembly companies from VAT and customs duties for imported construction equipment and machinery contributes to strengthening and development of trade and economic relations and to further integration into the world economy.
According to the statistic data the outcome of the previous UzBuild 2006 exhibition was as follows: 36% of exhibitors and visitors made contracts; 56% of exhibitors confirmed their participation in the next UzBuild 2007 exhibition; and 98% appreciated the high quality and visitation rate. Not all well-known exhibitions can show and be proud of such statistics. And taking into account the current dynamics of Uzbekistan’s economy, including the exposition market, UzBuild can be assumed to be an unconditional leader.
UzBuild 2007 is expected to be even larger than ever as 92 companies, including 18 Russian companies and those from new participant countries such as Kyrgyzstan, UAE, and China, had already applied for participation in the exhibition by September. Organisers expect 110 exhibitors to demonstrate their products at a total area of 1,500 sq.m., and 10,000 visitors to attend the exhibition over 4 days. UzBuild shows continuous development and, in 2007, the organisers are prepared to open 3 new sections such as Road-Building Machinery, Varnishes & Paints, Gardening and Landscape.
By the way, even if the further projects to be carried out by the organisers retain the current dynamics and continuous increase in volume they will never face the problem of area shortage as pavilions of the National Exhibition Center ‘Uzexpocenter’ have been recently renovated and now have a total area of 9,000 sq.m.
The exhibitors say that UzBuild is distinguished for its high level of organization, high visitation rate, and a real opportunity for establishment of business relations and making paying contracts. UzBuild 2007 will be actively supported by the government of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and municipal authorities, all contributing to the success of the exhibition and yet to elimination of possible obstacles. •
MosBuild 2007 – Moscow, 3-6 April
For the first time the 10th International Exhibition "Ceramics and Stone" within MOSBUILD will feature the first international contest "ArchCeramica. Ceramics and Architecture". This Contest is organised by the International Association of the Union of Architects, ITE and Sovremenny Dom Group of Companies.
"ArchCeramica. Ceramics and Architecture" is an independent architectural forum aimed at the demonstration of the use of ceramic tile in modern architectural solutions.
Ceramic tile is an excellent expressive material, which often becomes one of the most important elements of architectural solutions not only in interior design, but also in city architecture. Ceramic tile provides an architect an enormous variety of possible designing solutions. In addition to very attractive exterior, ceramic tile has excellent technical characteristics, which allows using it in complex operation conditions.
There will be two subjects under scrutiny; ‘Architecture and façade decoration using ceramic tiles’ and ‘Artistic decoration of interiors using ceramic tiles’.
In addition to conventional interior design solutions, the organisers expect to receive from the participants innovative proposals including non-standard methods of using ceramic tile and unusual combinations of ceramic tile with other finishing materials. Projects offering solutions for both newly built facilities and modernisation and reconstruction of existing buildings will be accepted for the contest.
The contest will be held with the participation and support of the Institute of Foreign Trade of Spain and Association of Ceramic Tile Producers of Spain ASCER.
Winners of the contest will be awarded with prize money. Jury of the contest includes leading designers and architects and is chaired by I. N. Voskresensky, Executive Secretary of Moscow Association of Unions of Architects, Honoured Architect of Russia, Chief Artist of Moscow.
One may say that in our conditions ceramic tile is of little use, and it's no sense to use ceramic tile without heating even as flooring. But what about Russian traditions? May we remind you stove tiles by Russian workmen - real masterpieces of decoration, or gorgeous works of art by Central Asian architects. In reality, today it's hard to imagine a whole lot of residential and public buildings without ceramic tile - hospitals, swimming pools, kitchens, toilets and bathrooms. And certainly one should not forget about using ceramic tile with ventilated façades!
At present age of high technologies people want to become closer to nature and to be able to use natural and environmentally friendly materials. There is no doubt that ceramic tile is just the one - environment resistant, easy to care and to service, aesthetic and practical material.
Exposition of the best works of contest participants will be demonstrated at MosBuild "Ceramics and Stone" 2007 to be held from the 3rd to the 6th April 2007 in the Expocentr at Krasnaya Presnya.
Visitors will have an opportunity to buy a catalogue of ArchCeramica contest listing participants and their projects.
