The biggest construction industry trade show in the Baltics, Māja I 2024, attracts wide interest
All roads led to Ķīpsala last weekend as everyone who is involved with construction or retrofitting of homes rushed towards the leading construction industry trade fair in the Baltics “Māja I 2024”.
Trade show “Māja I 2024”, spanning over both pavilions and outside exhibition area, welcomed 388 companies with their newest products for the construction industry from 10 countries: Austria, Denmark, Spain, Estonia, Finland, Italy, Lithuania, Latvia, Romani and Ukraine.
“Māja I 2024” exhibiting companies offered building and finishing materials, heating and ventilation, plumbing, electrical and lighting systems, roofing materials, sewerage systems, various kinds of flooring, doors, windows, gates, fences, solar panels, saunas and so much more. Tools were also available in great variety!
“What we could see was that visitors came to trade show with a clear idea of what they need. They came to get either the expert advice with regard to their preferred choice, to buy the chosen product or get a deal on specific item or long-term contract,” Roberts Brēde, the Director of “Māja I”, says.
This year’s trade show saw the biggest number and diversity of home and other designs ever. It seems that the old phrase “where there is a demand, there is a supply” still rings true. Visitors were hugely interested in easy-to-build modular homes and people were actively seeking advice and “trying on” various prefabricated home options.
“Māja I 2024” offered an extensive range of roofing materials. Moreover, companies not only gave the visitors their expert advice on the properties of particular materials but also offered free cost estimates for their projects.
Air-to-water heat pumps attracted the biggest visitor interest in the heating system section, which is unsurprising due to ease of installation and maintenance associated with this type of pump. Manufacturers have also made consumer’s life easier with modern technologies that allow to control the heating system remotely on your smart device. By the way, you can use the system to cool the air during the summer by letting the cool water flow through the floor tubes normally used for heating. Gas fuelled systems are really going out of fashion.
Environmentally friendly thermal insulation materials offered at the “Māja I 2024” by exhibiting companies came both in solid and dispersible form. These new technologies have better heat retention properties than older technologies like plastic foam or stone wool.
Exterior finishes were another product segment that was widely represented at the trade show in all its diversity, including concrete composite panels. There was also huge interest about biological septic tanks.
Trade show “Māja I 2024” offered everything a client, architect, developer, or anyone else building, needs.
Next year’s “Māja I” will take place on 27-30 March 2025. Facebook:
