Top construction and interiors firms from around the world have gathered in Bahrain at a one of a kind trade event.
Innovation, style and ambition are just some of the themes visitors can expect to find at the gulfBID and gulfINTERIORS exhibitions, which is running concurrently at the Bahrain International Exhibition Centre (BIEC).
The event, which began yesterday and ends tomorrow, is unique because it offers visitors a complete buying and specifying chain across the construction, interiors and furniture sectors under one roof.
Latest products and services are being showcased by more than 100 leading construction and interiors-related firms for the benefit of the more than 3,000 visitors expected at Halls 1 and 2 of the BIEC. gulfBID and gulfINTERIORS are being held under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prime Minister Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa.
gulfBID features innovative products and services from the categories of building and construction, water technology and environment, air-conditioning and refrigeration, cleaning and maintenance, glass and metal, bathrooms and ceramics, marble and machinery, and construction plant, machinery and vehicles.
The first gulfINTERIORS, meanwhile, welcomed influential international interior design firms such as renowned US designer Perla Lichi and multi-award winning integrated global design company design world partnership (dwp).
Jubran Abdulrahman, managing director of organisers Hilal Conferences and Exhibitions (HCE), said: "2010 is the year of global economy recovery and international firms are now looking with renewed optimism at new frontiers such as the Northern Gulf, which remains a project hotspot."
The exhibitions are being held concurrently with the region's first Green Building Forum today at the BIEC and organised by HCE.
