The Irish Sustainable Building Show 2010

The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) in Ireland is pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting at the upcoming Irish Sustainable Building Show where it will also announce the launch of the Ireland Construction Manager of the Year Award 2010/11 (CMYA)!  See below for further information.

The Irish Sustainable Building Show is the place to visit if you are interested in sustainable building, construction or design.  It is the biggest sustainable construction event in Ireland with all of the latest products from over 100 innovative companies and organisations.  This show runs alongside the Building Exhibition. Come visit us at Stand S8!

According to a new research from body industry FaceTime "after experiencing a product at a trade event, 28% more visitors indicated they would like to buy it (16% implicitly); 74% of post-show visitors viewed events as the 'best marketing as you can interact and compare to others' as well as the 'best way to meet new contacts'".

If you want to learn about the very latest developments the Sustainable Building Show seminar theatre featuring top name speakers is the place to be.  For a fresh perspective, make the Irish Sustainable Building Show an essential date for 2010.  

This year's event will host one of the most cutting edge sustainable show houses ever seen in Ireland.  Designed by ecological architects Solearth and built by Dempsey Timber Engineering, the House PLUS+ is more than a house, it’s a system for living sustainably and an environment for staying healthy, positive and refreshed.  The house will be packed with inspirational ideas including passive heat recovery ventilation, a productive roof, a radiant massive heat source, hempcrete walls among many others.  For the specification please click here.

LAUNCH OF IRELAND CONSTRUCTION MANAGER OF THE YEAR AWARDS 2010/11

The launch which will take place at 12 o'clock on the Main stage at the show will be attended by past winners, new entrants, dignitaries and invited guests as well as staff and members of the CIOB in Ireland.  You can pick up an application form to enter the Construction Manager of the Year, or contact your Centre Administrator from 7th October, when they will be available by e-mail or post. 

Why should I attend?

The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) supports, and participates in, a number of major exhibitions throughout the year, across the UK, Ireland and overseas. They are designed to be engaging and informative events, providing an overview of advances throughout the industry.

What will I achieve?

Exhibitions are an opportunity to see the latest innovations on the market, covering every aspect of construction. Typical focus areas include recruitment, sustainability, specific building initiatives and much more.  Many exhibitors launch new products or initiatives at the shows, providing visitors with inspiration for current and future projects. It is also a chance to connect with the wider industry and receive technical advice from exhibiting companies.

What can I expect?

Exhibitions are highly interactive events, offering a stimulating mix of forums, demonstrations, workshops and short seminars covering a huge variety of topics. Some exhibitions are part of larger events, running alongside a conference and an awards programme for example.  The exhibitions take an informal approach and are a good opportunity to network with current suppliers and build new contacts.

Who should attend?

Exhibitions are open to members and non-members. Attendees come from a wide range of backgrounds, such as specifiers, contractors, end users and clients.
