FECONS 2003 opens new perspectives in Havana

The fifth edition of Cuba’s International Construction Fair –the most important tradeshow for builders on the island nation- is now underway in the Pabexpo Fairgrounds. FECONS 2003 will provide some 280 companies from 23 countries with the opportunity of showing off the latest technological breakthroughs in the building business.

Attendants from Spain, Germany, France, Italy, Ireland, Austria, South Korea, Japan, Canada, Argentina, Costa Rica, Chile, Panama, Mexico, Aruba, China and Cuba will scatter their products and items in an area of 4,000 square meters.

The assorted offer allows the country to handpick cutting-edge technology and materials for quality and durable constructions taking account of the island nation’s weather impairment conditions and the need to lengthen maintenance schedules into money-saving cycles.

As a result of these meetings, the country has managed to cut deals for roughly 80 percent of all constructions materials used on the island both for social and tourist development projects.

Besides the tradeshow, FECONS includes a business round and an array of collateral activities linked to the Scientific and Technical Conference of Construction.
