ABOUT THE EVENT

The building and construction sector in Saudi Arabia is experiencing an unprecedented growth, driven by mega-projects such as the $7.8 billion Expo 2030 and the development of futuristic smart cities with a projected market value of $1.1 trillion by 2028. To fuel this growth, The Kingdom expects to finalize construction contracts worth $480 billion within the next six years. This surge in construction presents a unique opportunity that is prioritizing sustainability and occupant comfort through innovative building envelope design and insulation solutions.

With the Saudi construction sector expected to peak at a staggering $73 billion this year, BEDIC – The Building Envelope Design and Insulation Conference arrives at a critical juncture. This timely platform focuses on exactly what is needed: innovative building envelope designs and solutions that optimize energy efficiency and resident comfort for Saudi Arabia’s unique requirements. Major projects across the Kingdom, all require cutting-edge building envelope solutions to meet ambitious sustainability goals.

The conference is poised to be a cornerstone event for the future of sustainable construction in the Kingdom. This important gathering brings together government officials, policy makers, developers, architects, engineers, consultants, and technology providers to explore the industry’s latest advancements. BEDIC provides the best platform for the industry professionals to gain knowledge and learn how to develop innovative solutions and ensure sustainable, energy-efficient and comfortable buildings for a thriving Saudi Arabia.
