With an anticipated attendance of over 12,000 trade buyers and forum participants, the expo promises exclusive deals, new product launches, discounts, and direct consultations with suppliers, contractors, and engineers. Attendees will also have the unique opportunity to test products firsthand. The event will feature a dynamic mix of local and international companies, including industry leaders such as Boysen, Holcim, and Bosch, alongside emerging brands tailored to Mindanao’s specific construction needs.

“PHILCONSTRUCT showcases the full spectrum of building and construction industry requirements—from tools and materials to heavy equipment, commercial vehicles, and innovative building solutions. This is an essential event for the industry,” said Ronaldo “Junn” Elepano, President of PCA.
