Bharat Buildcon 2026 To Showcase India’s Global Building Materials Leadership

Bharat Buildcon, a flagship international exhibition for the building materials and construction sector, was formally launched at Vanijya Bhawan here, aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of transforming India into a global economic powerhouse by 2047.

Envisioned under the guidance of Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal, the event builds on the success of its predecessor, Vibrant Buildcon, and is supported by the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, the Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts (EPCH) via CAPEXIL, and the National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA). Goyal unveiled the curtain-raiser on August 29, urging an industry-led approach with minimal government intervention to boost exports and position India as a reliable global supplier.

Bharat Buildcon transcends a traditional trade fair, serving as a catalyst for collaboration among Indian manufacturers, MSMEs, startups, domestic traders, international buyers, and foreign exhibitors. It emphasizes exports, sustainable practices, and innovative construction solutions, resonating with India's infrastructure-led growth agenda.

Expected to draw over 30,000 domestic visitors and 1,000 international buyers from 100 countries, the platform will facilitate buyer-seller meets, knowledge sessions, and panel discussions with policymakers and industry leaders. Vibrant Buildcon's 2025 edition, held April 13-16 at the same venue, featured over 600 exhibitors and 1.5 lakh visitors, generating business leads worth $1 billion and underscoring the sector's export potential.

Spanning 24 diverse sectors, the exhibition offers a one-stop hub for the entire value chain. Key areas include marble, granite, and natural stones; hardware, bathroom fittings, and sanitaryware; CPVC pipes, timber, plywood, laminates, and flooring; paints, gypsum boards, cement, steel, and AAC blocks; modular furniture and interiors; adhesives, construction chemicals, electrics, glass, doors, windows, and ACP panels; HVAC systems, renewable energy, elevators, fire safety, surveillance, scaffolding, green materials, precast concrete, and home automation. This comprehensive scope highlights India's advancements in eco-friendly and smart building technologies, addressing global demands for sustainable urban development.
