Construction) and mining sectors.
Last year, BCT Expo 2024
recorded the participation of over 150 exhibiting companies and brands from 16
countries, with over 3,879 industry visitors from 35 countries. A key highlight
of BCT Expo 2024 was its highly successful “Business-Matching Program”, that
saw over 520 pre-arranged business meetings between pre-qualified hosted buyers
and exhibitors. This program allowed exhibitors to pre-schedule one-to-one
meetings with their targeted buyers.
Mr. Kannapak Taweeyos,
Business Development Manager, Channakorn Engineering Co., Ltd., said “This year
marks our 3rd year of participation in BCT Expo. The numbers and quality of

exhibit in BCT Expo.”
This year’s BCT Expo 2025
continues to bring together leading exhibitors and trade attendees from around
the world, focusing on 10 key industry clusters, namely 1. Construction
Vehicles, 2. Mining, Lifting, Earthmoving & Demolition, 3. Roads &
Infrastructure, Component & Service Suppliers, 4. Concrete Products, 5.
Building Materials, 6. Construction Services, 7. Digital & Smart
Construction, 8. Smart Facility Management, and 9. Sustainable Construction
& 10. Green Building Materials.
Trade attendees will have
opportunities to discover cutting-edge solutions and innovations while engaging
with experts on latest trends, best practices, challenges and issues. In
addition, there will also be trade certification courses conducted by key trade
associations for industry professionals.
The ASEAN construction
industry is undergoing a digital transformative phase, driven by emerging
technologies and innovations aimed at improving efficiency, sustainability and
cost effectiveness. The region’s construction market size revenue is projected
to reach US$538.5 billion in 2024, and expected to grow at a CAGR rate of 7.5%
from 2023 to 2028, driven by a demand shift towards Smart and Sustainable
infrastructure developments, with technologies such as Building Information
Modeling (BIM), AI and Robotics playing key roles in shaping the future of the
industry.
In supporting these trends,
BCT Expo 2025 is introducing its “Sustainable Construction Showcase Zone” aims
at showcasing and discussing the latest cutting-edge green technologies and
trends, ranging from Eco-Friendly Building Materials, Energy-Efficient
Construction Technology, Smart IoT and AI Driven Applications to Green Mining
Solutions.
Ms. Pailin Thiansuwan,
Advisor to Thailand’s Ministry of Industry, said “BCT Expo’s sustainability and
green transition agenda is aligned with our government priorities, aims to
foster collaboration between public and private sectors to raise our national
construction standards to be in line with Thailand’s industry 4.0 agenda. We
expect BCT Expo 2025 to introduce new innovations to support our SMEs in the
construction sector so as to enhance their competitiveness, while stimulating
investments in environmentally friendly construction technologies.”
The construction industry
faces a variety of challenges that can impact project delivery, cost, quality
and safety. These challenges include labor shortages, cost escalation, supply
chain disruptions, safety concerns, quality control, regulatory compliance,
sustainability and environmental impacts, technology integration and
automation, increasing project complexity,
just to name a few.
Hence, BCT Expo 2025 aims
to bring together the entire Southeast Asian construction industry to network,
learn, share and address these issues. Over 40 insightful conference sessions,
workshops, and certification courses are scheduled to be conducted by over 30
local and international industry experts and gurus over 3 days.
Attendees will get to stay
ahead of the curve in an industry that is increasingly driven by
digitalization, automation, and sustainability with topics such as AI and
Robotics in Construction, The Future of Construction Equipment, Building
Information Modelling, SMART Facility Management, Green Mining, ESG for Building,
Construction and Mining, Green Construction Transitions, Construction Laws and
Regulations Updates, just to name a few.
The use of AI &
Robotics in construction is expected to become mainstream by 2027 to include
autonomous equipment for excavation and bricklaying. In addition, the adoption
of drones for surveying, monitoring and safety inspection is gaining ground,
especially in areas where safety and efficiency are paramount concerns.
Addressing the above issues, BCT Expo 2025 is conducting hands-on and skill upgrading certification courses in AI & Robotics Automation in Construction, Drone Operation for Surveying and Safety Inspection, and not forgetting the highly popular Construction Safety Certification Training Course.
Ms. Peerayaphan Pongsanam,
Assistant Director of IMPACT Exhibition Management Co., Ltd, the organizer
said, “Building on the success of our previous editions, we are motivated to
create yet another exciting platform for industry players to come together to
do business, share ideas, and forge new partnerships, while advancing
sustainable practices and digital transformations within the industry.”
In addition to the highly
successful “Business-Matching Program” for international and regional companies
seeking business connections to expand their market presence in Southeast Asia,
BCT Expo 2025 will continue to host the “Construction Networking River Cruise”
providing a special evening for networking and building connections between
local and international players.
A senior overseas attendee
from Cambodia’s SIKA Cambodia Co., Ltd., said, “BCT Expo truly stands out as a
leading international trade exhibition for the building and construction
industry. Through the business matching program and river cruise, we had the
opportunity to expand our networks with key decision-makers, suppliers and
vendors. We would like to invite everyone to join BCT Expo 2025.”
