That was REBUILD 2025...

REBUILD 2025 closed its doors last Friday, April 25, consolidating industrialized construction as the country’s new economic engine in which business and social improvement opportunities are arising. Therefore, a total of 28,739 building professionals gathered at the event from Wednesday to Friday, in order to discover the industrialized, sustainable and technological innovations of the 634 exhibiting firms that have been cited in REBUILD. Altogether, they have unveiled more than 2,400 solutions for interiors, kitchens and bathrooms, and in categories such as lighting, enclosures, floors and surfaces, facades, energy efficiency, air conditioning, home automation, digital solutions and BIM or industrialized building systems in 2D or 3D, among others.

Our partners include AEDAS HOMES, Aldes, Baxi, BMI, CERANOR, Componentes, Deloitte, Egoin, Eurecat, Ferrovial, Finsa, Grupo Alumed, Lobe, Grupo Puma, Holcim, Huurre, La Escandella, Lignum Tech, Mapei, Mitsubishi Electric, Molins, Multipanel, Peronda, Persycom, Saint-Gobain, Saltoki Offsite, Samsung, Schutz, Siber, Siber, Sodeca, S&P, Soprema, Tabihaus, Tecnalia, Thermochip, Zehnder and Zennio, who opened their doors to us to show us their latest solutions and innovations in new construction.

REBUILD 2025 brought together 707 experts from around the world at the Advanced Architecture and Construction 4.0 Congress, including Massimiliano Fuksas, Carlo Ratti, Stefano Boeri, Dominique Perrault, Andrew Waugh, Silja Tillner, among others, who have pointed to the future of construction towards a more industrialized, circular, digitized sector, adapted to the environment and that strives for the well-being of users. In this sense, the main conclusion has been the evolution towards industrialization, which stands as a response to the current challenges of the lack of affordable housing, the high environmental impact, or the lack of talent.

Within the framework of REBUILD 2025, the Advanced Architecture Awards were held, a meeting point that aims to recognize the work, leadership and effort of those companies and professionals who are committed to transformation, disruption and innovation. Likewise, within our range of activities, the Construction Tech Startup Forum also took place, a forum that brings together the future leaders of the building industry through startups that surprise the world with innovative and disruptive solutions, capable of transforming the sector through advanced technology or by proposing new business models.

One of the most awaited meetings was the signing of the Manifesto defining architecture in the era of climate change, where Pedro Sánchez and Carlo Ratti were present. The President of the Government and the curator of the 19th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia presented in Madrid the global call to design with a view to reducing emissions and adapting to today’s challenges.

REBUILD 2025 had the pleasure of counting on the collaboration of Austria, as Guest Country, a reference in housing and habitability policies, especially in its capital, Vienna, which has been recognized for the third consecutive year as the city with the highest quality of life in the world, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit’s habitability index.

Navarra also participated actively as a “Guest Innovation Region”, a recognition that highlights its pioneering model in public housing, sustainability and construction innovation. The region has positioned itself as a national benchmark thanks to its firm commitment to industrialization, energy efficiency and public-private collaboration in building.
