Build+Decor — building materials expo

Build+Decor is a long-running procurement hub for North China’s construction and interior-finishing market, designed to compress supplier scouting, product validation and shortlist decisions into a three-day workflow. The 2026 edition runs March 12–14 at the China International Exhibition Center (New Venue, Shunyi), bringing together upstream materials and downstream applications so buyers can compare offers by total installed cost, performance, logistics and after-sales readiness rather than brochures alone. Co-located categories (custom home, wallcoverings/soft décor, doors & windows, sanitary, surfaces, coatings, hardware) reflect how fit-out decisions are made on site, enabling project, retail and distributor teams to align SKUs, delivery calendars and compliance documentation in one trip. Dates and the CIEC New Venue location are confirmed by the official site and trusted listings.

Coverage spans structural and finishing materials for residential and commercial fit-out: ceramic and porcelain tiles, stone and engineered surfaces, laminate/LVT/wood flooring, wall panels and decorative boards, wallpapers and wallcoverings, paints and coatings, thermal/acoustic solutions, façades and cladding; doors & windows systems with profiles, hardware and seals; kitchen & bath (sanitaryware, fittings, shower systems, cabinets, worktops); hardware & fasteners, adhesives and sealants; smart home/building access and environmental control; and tools, machines and consumables for installation and maintenance. The show’s curation mirrors real project bundles so visitors evaluate not just unit price but durability, slip/abrasion ratings, VOC/emissions, waterproofing, cleanability and lifecycle service, with documentation aligned to Chinese GB standards and export requirements. Product scope summaries and co-located segments are listed on the official pages.

Attendees include distributors and DIY chains, building materials markets, developers and general contractors, architects and interior designers, kitchen & bath dealers, doors/windows fabricators, import/export agents and e-commerce platforms. Supplier side features material manufacturers, system providers, hardware brands and OEM/ODM factories. Buying teams typically arrive with target price bands and specifications (e.g., R10/R11 slip, PEI/abrasion class, VOC limits, water-tightness for window systems), so meetings move straight to feasibility: MOQ and lead-time ladders, colour/texture consistency, packaging tests, installation methods, warranty terms and after-sales coverage by region. This transaction-oriented mix lifts conversion from booth visits to RFQs and framework orders within the show window, which is why Build+Decor remains a Northern China calendar fixture. (Visitor and exhibitor profiles are reflected across official and third-party schedules.)

On the floor, buyers can walk end-to-end fit-out workflows: from substrate prep, waterproofing and adhesives, through surfaces and panels, to fixtures, hardware and finishing. Doors/windows zones present profile systems, glazing, gaskets and hardware with thermal and water-tightness data; surface pavilions show tiles/stone/engineered materials with shade control, rectification and slip tests; coatings highlight low-VOC, anti-mould and washability; kitchen & bath present sanitaryware, mixers and shower sets with flow and finish durability; logistics/service desks cover packaging, drop-test and regional after-sales. Evaluating components side by side turns price tags into installed-cost and lifecycle comparisons, reducing risk before tendering and installation. The exhibit map published by the organiser and partner listings support this breadth.

The CIEC New Venue (Shunyi) provides large contiguous halls, high floor loads and established contractor ecosystems suitable for heavy pallets, stone slabs and live installation demos. The site’s logistics—vehicle access windows, rigging and on-site services—make it practical to validate packaging, handling and tool requirements that directly affect damage rates and install speed. Public references confirm both the New Venue designation and the Shunyi address (commonly listed as No. 88 Yuxiang Road, Shunyi District), while some directories also reference the group’s Chaoyang address as the corporate contact; buyers should plan travel to the Shunyi new halls for 2026.

The show’s organisation is attributed to China B & D Exhibition Co., Ltd. alongside CIEC GL Events (Beijing) Co., Ltd./CIEC Group in reputable directories and organiser pages. This pairing combines a specialised building-materials team with the venue operator’s network and operations, resulting in predictable buyer recruitment, clear zoning (doors/windows, surfaces, coatings, kitchen & bath) and on-site services that keep conversations output-driven—spec packages, compliance documentation, sample approvals and delivery calendars by region. Contact blocks on official pages and third-party listings provide the CIEC corporate address on No. 6 East Beisanhuan Road for organiser liaison, while the Shunyi New Venue is specified for show days.
