In the midst of the country’s rapidly growing construction industry, which it owes in part to a significant increase in activity by property developers and investors along with the government’s staunch commitment to implement major infrastructural projects throughout the country, the Visayan construction industry emerges as one of the most active forerunners of the building sector.

In perfect timing, the Philippine Building and Construction Expo Cebu or simply PHILBEX Cebu returns this September to provide industry professionals with another high-grade trade exposition that will prove beneficial for developing and expanding their businesses. Now on its 17th year, PHILBEX Cebu seeks to gather the Visayan construction and design industry and together conjure “A World Built Bolder”.

As explained by Joseph Ang, the founding chairman of Worldbex Services International, the event organizing company at the helm of PHILBEX Cebu, “this idea of a bold new world that PHILBEX Cebu aspires to build is one that not only thrives on progress, but rather, one that is built upon innovation and mindfulness.”

With this goal in mind, PHILBEX Cebu will benefit from its steadily expanding network of manufacturers, suppliers, construction companies, and other stake holders who are more than ready to cater to the demands for building materials, construction equipment, and support services from the region.

This year, PHILBEX Cebu has managed to assemble a total of 81 local and international exhibitors. China is its main international exhibitor which will be showcasing products such as PVC, windows and doors, building materials, elevator and escalator equipment, cement, and many more.

Meanwhile, the product profile at this year’s show include ceramics and porcelain, concrete, doors and windows, electrical, equipment and machinery, flooring , tiles, glass, interior fixtures and furniture, lighting, paints and finishing, roofing and ceiling, steel and aluminum, water and pool, as well as wood and treatments.

Apart from showcasing a wide array of product and service innovations, elevating the trade show experience for all its attendees are the series of pocket events that will be happening throughout the four-day exposition.

Here are the trade show features to watch out for at PHILBEX Cebu 2019.
