The “BETON 2025 Ready Mixed Concrete Exhibition and Summit,” organized by our association in cooperation with TG Expo, brought together the ready mixed concrete, cement, aggregate, and construction industries under one roof. Over 100 companies showcased their products in an area of 15,708 m². The most striking fact was the increase in the number of visitors. With a 30% rise compared to the previous exhibition, exceeding 15,000 participants, our exhibition became the largest meeting point of the industry.
International participation also exceeded our expectations. In addition to 12,000 professionals from all over Türkiye, 3,000 foreign representatives from 71 countries, from Europe to the Gulf countries and from Russia to Sub-Saharan Africa, visited our exhibition. This global interest strengthened the position of Turkish ready mixed concrete and construction equipment manufacturers in international markets. Seeing that the expectations of the exhibition participants were met and hearing that they left happy after making new sales agreements made us extremely pleased as well.
The BETON 2025 Summit was shaped around four main themes: 'Economy and the Future of the Industry Day,' 'Sustainability Day,' 'Academy Day,' and 'Regulatory Compliance and Digital Transformation Day.' Our summit attracted great attention with its comprehensive sessions where strategic topics shaping the future of the ready mixed concrete and construction industry were discussed.
