PRIMUS: SUSTAINABLE WINDOW & DOOR FORUM 2012
24 – 27 January 2012 | KyivExpoPlaza | Kyiv | Ukraine

The debate on construction business has for many years been framed in simple yes-or-no terms: “Does it pay to be green?”; ‘Does it pay to be efficient?”; ‘Does it pay to practice sustainability?” The answer to all these questions is increasingly: yes it does.

Environmental design and sustainability in construction business, is, like other technical questions, a highly sophisticated issue that demands a more complex approach, both from the supply side and from the demand side of the market. Correct implementation of the basic sustainability and efficiency principles will drive down cost, increase efficiency, improve the bottom line, and most importantly, reduce the burden on the environment in which we all live.

Environmental design and efficiency in construction places a particular emphasis on the façade, window and door segments of the industry to achieve the bulk of the energy, material and cost savings in the overall design of a building. This is recognized by the leading manufacturers of this sector, every one of whom is actively designing and promoting products based on the basic principles of environmental design and sustainability.

However, having individual companies coming up with various products and promoting them individually is not enough; for optimum allocation of resources there must be a centralized forum where supply and demand can come together and determine the true market and opportunities for environmental design and efficiency products in today’s construction industry.

Primus Exhibitions Group is proud to launch the 1st International Sustainable Window & Door Forum, tailored specifically to bring together designers, manufacturers and consumers of products designed with sustainable design and efficiency in mind, and to promote the benefits of implementation of ‘green’ technology to the wider consumer base of Ukraine. The Forum will run alongside such established events as Primus: Windows, Doors & Profiles 2012 and Primus: Architectural Glass 2012 on 24 – 27 January 2012, in the KyivExpoPlaza Exhibition Center in Kyiv, Ukraine.
