This year’s edition of the International Building Trade Fair FOR ARCH, which is the largest event of this type in the Czech Republic, was extraordinarily successful again. Altogether 841 exhibitors presented their expositions there, 67 of them coming from abroad from 15 countries of the world, and the number of visitors thus exceeded the limit of 71,000 persons. This success would not have been possible without involvement of our long-term partners, and therefore we would like to express our thanks for the demonstrated support to the general partner of the trade fair, the ČEZ Group, to the car manufacturing company FORD for official cars of the trade fair, to the organisations and other institutions which provided their auspices for the event, as well as to all our professional and media partners. At the same time we would like to express our great thanks also to all visitors whose support is at the same time a great challenge for us in the future as well.

The GRAND PRIX competition for the best exhibit, which is organised by the ABF, a. s. company, has taken place at the International Building Trade Fair FOR ARCH 2016 this year as well. The competition was attended by altogether 41 registered products, and after the careful studying of the ground materials and on the basis of presentation of exhibits of the firms in the course of the first day of the trade fair the Jury granted five GRAND PRIX awards and six HONOURABLE MENTIONS without specifying any detailed order.

The twenty-eighth edition of the largest International Building Trade Fair in the Czech Republic is opening its gates for visitors this afternoon. The FOR ARCH Trade Fair is held at the PVA EXPO PRAGUE Exhibition Centre and will last till Saturday, 24 September. More than eight hundred exhibitors from fifteen countries of the world will present there the latest trends from the field of the building industry on an exhibition area of almost 21,000 square metres.

Within the framework of the accompanying programme it is furthermore possible to attend specialised conferences with participation of leading personalities in the sector, important nation-wide architectonic competitions as well as a practical programme for entrepreneurs and the general public.  A great innovation compared to previous editions is given by various daily topics - quality of products, energy performance management, professional education, smart house concepts and self-built house constructions. Newly it will be possible to use also the independent BUILDING ADVISORY CENTRE where professionals will provide, free of charge, useful advice within the framework of the daily topics focused on the ways of how to manage various construction issues. In terms of additional topics, FOR ARCH will be complemented by the accompanying trade fairs FOR STAV, FOR THERM, FOR WOOD and BAZÉNY, SAUNY & SPA.

 

Directors of designing companies consider the relatively high combustibility of wood to be the most serious disadvantage of the building use of wood. On the other hand, the possibility of mould attacks causes the least concern. This conclusion implies from the analysis which was prepared by the analytical company “CEEC Research” for the International Building Trade Fair FOR ARCH.

This year's conference will be a unique event as it will present the Italian style and design in the world of wellness and SPA. Come and see the HOTEL WELLNESS & SPA Conferenece which will be held within the BAZÉNY, SAUNY & SPA trade fair on 20-24 September 2016 in Prague. The event will present MARIO SANTINI, a remarkable Italian architect who has been engaged for many years in designing and construction of wellness centres. Mario Santini is an enthusiastic professional with passion for relaxation, namely saunas. He is the founder and president of the Italian Sauna Association. He actively takes part in sauna ceremonials as a sauna master, and this is not his first time in the Czech Republic – he is an avid participant of many events that are held here. Among sauna professionals and the enlightened public, he is popular due to his taking part in the top sauna contests, such as SaunaFest or Sauna Herbal Cup. Owing to his passion for wellness and saunas, he seeks to connect architecture with wellness, and it is on this topic that he is having his lecture within the conference.

Prague, 29 August 2016 – Almost three quarters of customers of design companies require inclusion of a recuperation unit during preparation of constructions. The situation is, however, rather different at firms dealing especially with engineering constructions where they are required for one fifth of designs only. These conclusions imply from the analysis which was prepared for the International Building Trade Fair FOR ARCH by the analytical company “CEEC Research”.

This year’s edition of the International Building Trade Fair FOR ARCH, which is to be held at the end of September in Prague-Letňany, has chosen, as one of the current topics, also the so-called “smart house” which is able, through its structure and technologies used, to ensure maximum comfort and energy-efficient environment for the people living there. A special ELEKTRO section will be reserved in the hall number 4 to the firms which are active in this sector. The general partner of the International Building Trade Fair FOR ARCH 2016 is the ČEZ group.

One of the core topics of this year’s FOR ARCH Trade Fair, which is to be held at the end of September at the PVA EXPO PRAGUE Exhibition Centre, will be the support of vocational training. The final round of the competition presentation of building trades and crafts known as SUSO will take place within the framework of this approach as well. This event will be accompanied also by another edition of the popular bilateral business negotiations known as MATCHMAKING BUSINESS MEETINGS and by the conference of directors of European Craft Chambers. Already in a few days, on Thursday, 2 June, the conference CROSSROADS OF ARCHITECTURE will be held in the National Technical Museum in Prague focused on the topic “Cultural landscape: changes, creation, protection”.

The 27th FOR ARCH International Building Trade Fair will take place on 20-24 September 2016 at the PVA EXPO PRAGUE exhibition centre. For the first time in its history, it will present a different daily topic for each day of the event. Visitors will thus be able to learn about the issue of product and material quality, energy efficiency of buildings, ventilation systems, professional training in the construction sector, the “smart building” phenomenon and self-made construction work. Professionals at the CONSULTANCY CENTRE will give visitors expert advice according to the daily topic. Within its exposition, the State Environmental Fund of the Czech Republic will provide information on state-funded subsidies.

We would like to thank everybody who visited the booth of FOR ARCH at the CEVISAMA trade fair in Valencia, Spain, where the FOR ARCH trade fair was presented within the cooperation between FERIA VALENCIA and PVA EXPO PRAGUE.

We are pleased that new foreign exhibitors and business partners expressed a desire to take part in FOR ARCH, which proves that the scope of the largest Czech construction trade fair is getting increasingly international. Go see the event for yourself on 20-24 September 2016 at the PVA EXPO PRAGUE exhibition centre in Prague, Czech Republic. The 27^th FOR ARCH building trade fair will be accompanied by an extensive accompanying programme and numerous lectures and seminars. 

 

The HVAC sector is on the rise in the Czech Republic as the government continues to financially support installations of new, more ecological heat sources through a system of subsidies and allocation of EU funding resources. This is why both businesses and end clients are willing to invest in new heating and AC systems. And this is why now, half a year before the event takes place, the FOR THERM trade fair witnesses an unprecedented interest of companies seeking to exhibit at the trade fair. 

 

REHVA, the Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Associations, has granted patronage to the 2016 FOR THERM trade fair. REHVA is a leading authority within the European HVAC sector,

The fact that this is a second time in a row that REHVA has granted auspices to FOR THERM proves that FOR THERM can easily compete with the top HVAC exhibitions in Europe. To further strengthen the international scope of the event, a set of organized B2B meetings entitled Matchmaking Business Meetings will be held. The meetings are designed to help international participants to introduce themselves on the Czech market and to find new business partners, suppliers, manufacturers, producers and wholesalers.

Czech people are thrifty when it comes to heating. But as far as water heating is concerned, they are less economical, even though heating of water comprises a large portion of a household's yearly energy expenses. The average four-member family uses 73 cubic meters of water each year (i.e. 50 liters of water per person each day). Heating of such an amount of water costs hundreds of EUR, depending on the heating source and on the habits of the family. It is important to take into consideration all the financial parameters and consequences of the individual solutions when you are choosing your water heating system. New technologies will be presented by both Czech and foreign manufacturers at the FOR THERM trade fair, which will take place on 15-19 September, 2015, in the PVA EXPO PRAGUE exhibition center in Letnany, Prague, Czech Republic. Professionals in the fields of heating, AC, chimney systems and alternative energy sources will take part in the concurrent conference.   (12.2.2015)   read more >>

The 26th annual FOR ARCH, the most attended Czech building trade fair, which will take place in September 2015 at the PVA EXPO PRAGUE fairground, will be exceptional. The event will be held under the auspices of Milos Zeman, the President of the Czech Republic; Bohuslav Sobotka, the Prime Minister of the Czech Republic; and Milan Stech, the President of the Senate of the Parliament of the Czech Republic. These auspices are yet another evidence that the FOR ARCH trade fair is the top event of the Czech building industry.  

As part of further internationalization of the largest Czech construction trade fair, the figures of FOR ARCH are now audited by Amasia Expo, a UFI-authorized auditing agency, which has successfully audited the 2014 edition of the fair. FOR ARCH thus continues to confirm its status of an international event and to further expand its foreign business activities. The FOR ARCH trade fair is now newly represented also in Austria, Lithuania and China.

REHVA represents more than 100.000 engineers from 26 European countries and helps the FOR THERM trade fair one more step further in 2015. As part of the cooperation, the 6th annual FOR THERM is included in the official list of REHVA, and REHVA will, from its position of a professional partner, take part in preparation of the accompanying program, which will be attended among others by prof. Ing. Karel Kabele, CSc., the president of REHVA. The main topic of the 2015 FOR ARCH is Energy Efficiency of Buildings, and FOR THERM follows with its topic Efficiency of Heating. We believe that this cooperation will yield new perspectives on the given topic.   (6.1.2015)   read more >>
