Engineering Sustainable and High-Performance Envelopes for MENA’s Build Sector

“This conference has gathered many experts, and we’ve just listened to presentations set to truly revolutionize building envelopes and the durability of buildings overall. We’ve witnessed some innovative materials. We’ve seen new materials entering the market, and, as the Secretary General of the Saudi Building Code, we hope to take multiple sectors and systems present here and subject them to studies to eventually introduce them into the market.
At this event, we met with experts and exchanged knowledge with enthusiasts and specialists. These conferences are incredibly valuable, and I recommend every professional attend, review their outcomes, and follow their recommendations. They provide a brief yet insightful overview of the latest developments in building envelopes, finishing materials, and construction techniques. I also toured the exhibition, and the companies presenting are truly impressive in displaying their products and engaging with attendees. This is of immense benefit. Thank you.”

“Today, at this beautiful conference, we witnessed a great integration between designers, implementers, project developers and legislators in the construction sector interested in adopting leading technologies to utilise them, put them within the requirements and integrate them with the parameters on which the code we designed. Excellent harmony and exciting integration showcase some of the leading and large projects in our beloved Kingdom, as well as the aspiration of investors, manufacturers, and material suppliers that will improve the sustainability of these buildings for a better future. Thank you, and I'm happy to be here.”

“We are grateful that GM Events has organized such a great show here focused especially on sustainability, which is a key factor in all discussions going around the GCC. The quality of the people attending this function has given us great hope. We plan to repeat the attendance next year also probably in a bigger way. We had some great leads and great discussions with the government as well as big stakeholders in the industry. We hope to get further mileage out of it.”

“We believe the event was very interesting. We have met interested people; we listened to very good presentations by various architectural offices and design offices which really give good informative seminars. We hope we can benefit from this event. We wish all the success to the organizers. Thank you very much for this opportunity! We have learned a lot.”

“It was a nice event, we had a lot of attendees, a lot of people interested in what we have to offer. It was very good for us.”

“Participating in the BEDIC event in Jeddah was a truly inspiring experience…. The depth and quality of discussions were both insightful and energizing, offering fresh perspectives on how emerging technologies and innovative approaches are driving the next phase of development. The collective ambition to move beyond the conventional and embrace sustainability as a core principle—both now and in the future of architecture and urban planning—was particularly inspiring.
… I look forward to seeing how these valuable conversations translate into real-world projects and continuing the dialogue on creating future-proof, sustainable buildings that contribute meaningfully to the region's progress.”

“I left the event feeling truly inspired by the collective passion, innovative ideas, and unwavering dedication to advancing environmental and acoustics standards demonstrated by everyone present.”

“What an event! It was a privilege to participate at the Building Envelope Design and Insulation Conference on the 16th of September sparking interesting conversations of Facade Fire Safety and how we can realize the ambitious innovative facade designs while maintaining high quality of design and construction and streamlining authority approval processes. Looking forward to BEDIC 2025 and the showcase of future incredible projects in the Middle East.”

“So happy to be here, a terrific gathering of professionals, I truly enjoyed my time. very well-organized.”

“I really enjoyed BEDIC, and I think hosting it alongside MEPIC was really good - there was quite a lot of cross-over. The project presentations were very interesting and drew the audience. The panels bring in a lot of speakers and engagement with the audience.”
