In conjunction with the HDD series of industry events, it covers demand from high-end properties such as luxury villas, hotels and restaurants, shopping malls and clubs, integrating design, construction, fit-out, and new-material solutions, and attracting well-known building-material brands from China and abroad.

2026 exhibition:
