BANGKOK – Global manufacturers of construction and mining machinery are setting their sights on a key trade event in Thailand next year, aiming to secure a foothold in Southeast Asia's rapidly developing infrastructure sector.

The Construction & Building Asia Expo (CBA EXPO) is scheduled for September 23-25, 2026, in Bangkok. The event positions itself as a primary gateway for international companies to connect with regional buyers amid rising demand for both traditional and advanced smart, energy-efficient equipment.

"Thailand's robust infrastructure and mining development is driving steady demand," said Pan Ming from Beijing Shengruida Exhibition, the event's organizer. He noted that the expo will gather industry leaders to explore new trends, reflecting the region's growing importance in the global machinery market.

The exhibition will showcase the latest in engineering machinery, mining equipment, and related technologies. A significant focus will be on innovations in green technology and energy-saving equipment, aligning with global sustainability trends and regional regulatory shifts.

For industry professionals, the expo offers more than product displays. It serves as a critical platform for forging partnerships and scouting opportunities in a competitive market, from major multinationals to specialized SMEs looking to expand their footprint in Southeast Asia.Editor/Cao Tianyi
