The 6th edition of Fensterbau Frontale India – International Exhibition & Conference on Window, Door and Façade Technology took place from 25th-27th February 2016 at Bombay Convention & Exhibition Centre, Mumbai.
Organized by NürnbergMesse, the exhibition has continued to grow and has attracted Industry Leaders since its inception in 2011. The event has managed to achieve a successful outcome by providing an effective learning platform, complemented with immense networking opportunities. The products & solutions on display at the event meet various criteria such as sustainability, energy efficiency and durability.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the event, Mr. Ram Raheja, Director and Head of Design and Architecture at S. Raheja Realty said “There is no better way of judging the success of a project, than the quality of its construction. The quality starts right at the inception with the right selection of materials, vendors and contractors.
As a design philosophy, the facade of a building is one of the most important aspects as it sets the tone for the building. From an engineering and sustainability stand point many aspects of the facade define the energy efficiency of the building.”
With the key themes of energy efficiency and sustainability taking Centre stage, the three day event explored and underlined key industry issues through a series of seminars and programs.
Despite current economic slowdown and a slight slump in the real estate sector, the recently concluded exhibition had a successful outcome by attracting more than 4000 highly specific and top class buyers to the event.
Mr. Anjan Putatunda, General Manager, Kawneer India said “This is our second consecutive successful participation at Fensterbau Frontale India. The event has been great success for us each time. It not only helps us to meet Quality Customers but also gives us a platform to showcase latest technology & gather good Business opportunities. As a show we would like to congratulate FFI for their understanding of the fenestration industry and an eye for detail, which sets them apart and as a team, we would like to thank them for their continuous support in addressing our needs and putting up a brilliant show!
