The Build & Renovating Expo by Master Builders is Victoria’s premier event for the residential building and renovating markets.

Known for its ability to directly connect an otherwise hard-to-reach audience of 15,000 trade professionals and owner-builders with quality suppliers, the 2014 event will showcase the finest in building materials, technologies and services.

The Expo evolves each year. Innovations to the 2014 program will match registered building practitioners, architects, designers, tradespeople and homeowners with practical solutions for their projects.

One such innovation is The Modern Home. This is an architecturally-designed, ‘deconstructed’ home giving visitors an opportunity to explore modern and innovative design and materials in the environment that they were designed for.

In line with the values of sustainability, efficiency and affordability, The Modern Home will educate and inspire building professionals and home owners to think ‘outside of the square’ when it comes to planning a major project.

Cutting-edge seminars, presented by some of industry’s leading organisations, will offer advice and insights into the future of homes and living, as well as present trade professionals with updates on topics, such as updates to building regulations and registration.

When asked what keeps people coming back to the Build & Renovating Expo, Exhibition Director Jo Stavers says it’s all about understanding demand and exceeding visitors’ expectations. 

“Whether the purpose of their visit is to source materials for their own or a client’s project, or to keep abreast of industry trends and updates, the expo offers it all in a creative and open environment. Watching business opportunities in Victoria’s building and renovating industry literally flourish over the course of three days demonstrates the appetite to efficiently connect suppliers and manufacturers with their customers,” she says.

The 2014 Build & Renovating Expo will be held from 4 – 6 July at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre. For more information on showcasing your products contact Informa Exhibitions on (03) 8672 1200 or visit www.buildexpo.com.au for further details.
