MosBuild
MosBuild (MosBuild) is hosted by Hyve Group (formerly ITE Group) and is held annually. It is the leading exhibition of building and decoration materials in Russia and even Eastern Europe.
In 2019, the number of professional visitors to MosBuild continued to grow, exceeding 77,000; the exhibition area was 80,000 square meters, using 16 exhibition halls; exhibitors came from 40 countries and regions, totaling about 1,200. As the number of exhibitors has exceeded the capacity of the venue, the organizers of the exhibition decided to move the entire exhibition to the Crocus International Exhibition Center, the largest exhibition center in Russia, in 2019.
In the past two years, the completed areas of industrial buildings and commercial buildings in Russia have reached 130 million square meters and 90 million square meters respectively, almost equivalent to the total construction area in the previous 10 years. Real estate development requires a large amount of building decoration materials. Russia has a strong demand for stone, partitions, ceiling materials, wallpaper, flooring, kitchen sanitary equipment, plastic steel doors and windows, radiators and ceramic bathrooms. However, due to historical reasons, Russia’s building materials manufacturing industry has not been developed enough, and a large amount of materials must be imported from abroad. In addition, the products of European countries are expensive, which makes ordinary Russians dare not buy them, leaving a huge market gap for cheap and good quality Chinese building materials products. Now some Chinese building materials products have entered the Russian market, with an annual trade volume of hundreds of millions of dollars.
